Rejoining the Blogosphere
Hello Again It's been a long time since I've blogged regularly. I've never stopped gaming, but for some reason Twitter has become the main place that I talk about that part of my life. I do miss interacting in comments and having a sort of 'living memoir' for my gaming experience, so I've decided to... Continue Reading →
I Refuse to Believe that MMOs are Dead
(First off, an apology.

[FFXIV] My first pair of dungeons!

I did Sastasha and The... Continue Reading →
Still Enamored With FFXIV
Well gosh darn it, just when I thought I had moved away from MMOs (yeah right) this little surprise popped up. I feel bad for being such a naysayer before FFXIV even launched, but I've heard it all when it comes to pre-launch hype. I didn't expect that I'd be playing FFXIV, much less enjoying...

FFXIV: My Early Reactions
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is a game that basically snuck up on me. I mean, I knew it was coming, and I had friends who were raving about it a few months ago. But as someone who never played a Final Fantasy MMO, my gut instinct told me that it would be a... Continue Reading →
