Playing Doom 3 and wow, no wonder this place went to shit. People just leave passwords everywhere for anyone to find.

I developed tendonitis in my left hand so I've had to scale back gaming a little and rest as much as I can since we're in our busy season at work. It stinks because I wanted to do Eden's Gate savage-tier raids in FFXIV, but casual play is better for now.

Finally settled on a new look, just shifted away from red to various shades of purple. I spent lots of gil at the stylist NPC constantly changing my mind. He bought a yacht later, I think.

I have chosen my side. I was already leaning Black Eagles, but then I looked up the romance options and it supported my choice.

My Monk has become Street Fighter.

Working on my Monk this week in FFXIV. Also trying out a kinda new look. Goth kitty?

Reached level 80 Machinist (the job is almost literally FFVI Edgar) and reunited a mother with her son. All hail Automaton Queen!

Back to being a cowgirl. A funky cowgirl from another dimension, even.

I think SE wants my Samurai to be a scary bird.

I like my new Dark Knight artifact armor. It's very Cecil Harvey when the helmet is visible, but the edgiest dark knights turn off visible helmets.

My FFXIV Primal character has been reborn as a rabbit lady. I call her Roda Kyl.

Spent more time with the PC and Switch versions of Bloodstained. The Switch version definitely needs work but is serviceable, but the PC version is much smoother. I'll play it on PC since I'm on vacation and mostly resting at home.

I couldn't sacrifice my sanity to get a Eureka weapon for my Dark Knight, so I had this crafted instead. The Seeing Horde Guillotine oozes with evil dragon hatred and suits a Warrior of Darkness just fine. Pretty sure it's larger than my character, too.

Final Eureka relic weapon I'm doing for FFXIV Stormblood, the Mollfrith Eureka. Named for the 17th century pickpocket and fence, Mary Frith.

Apparently, people want this Tifa in the FFVII remake.

Surprise mechanic!

I have chosen the very best mentor for black magic. Do not cross her or your end may be tragic. Ohohoho!

Completed my Warrior's Shamash Eureka axe. Shamash was the Sumerian God of the sun, morality, justice and truth.

Why can't Bloodstained crawl?

Just as a reminder: Since Bloodstained is hotly anticipated here and some are being made to wait an extra week for their copies on Switch (I double-dipped on PC cuz can't wait), keep posts and images fairly generic and spoiler-free. No bosses or endings.

Catching up my mages. Scholar and Summoner are 50 and I'm pushing White Mage and Black Mage to 50 now as well.

Since people keep asking about a place Dtoid folks gather in FFXIV, I'm setting up a Discord to try and attempt to get something rolling and get linkshell invites out in-game. And settle on LS names. I'll leave a Discord link in the comments.

If there was any question about "whatabout"type people not thinking "straight pride" through, here it is. Did they go to jail? Were they married there? Did Hamburgler oversee this union? This is what happens when you don't peer review your work.

Got Machinist to 70 last Friday. I have yet to find a new glamour for it since 60 mostly because most of their artifact armor is ugly and most aiming gear is also hideous, so I'm sticking to gearhead or cowgirl looks.

It's confusing how Fangamer notifies you your package has been shipped and then that it arrived an hour later.
