Now, I’m not much of one to partake in Halloween generally. But I came across something truly terrifying that I had to share. No, terrifying isn’t enough. It’s horrifying. Any other time of year, I might’ve had a quiet...

Detour from the Hundred

by Naithin | Aug 26, 2019 | Final Fantasy XIV | 4

Last time I provided an update on propelling myself through the Horrible Hundred, Rakuno suggested that I take a look at the Crystal Tower raid when I got the chance. As it turned out, I’d already completed most of the attunement quest so,...

No Man’s Sky Added

by Naithin | Aug 22, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Blog, Final Fantasy XIV, Lost Ark, No Man's Sky | 3

My gaming preferences are mysterious and ever shifting. Like a leaf upon the wind, one can never be too sure where they may land. … Which is to say, I’m very fickle and typically struggle to settle into any one title for any reasonable...

Battling Leviathan

by Naithin | Aug 15, 2019 | Final Fantasy XIV | 9

Yep. An honest to God post about a game. I feel like it’s been a while! So I jumped back into Final Fantasy XIV last night, cracked my knuckles, and prepared to continue playing Courier Conversation Quest. (Yeah, I’m still working my...

Time to Loot Journal: July 2019

by Naithin | Jul 31, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Final Fantasy XIV, Journal, Lost Ark, Other Games, Warframe | 7

Looking back over the past month I’m left wondering… What happened? Where did the time go and what did I do? It seems like a lifetime ago that the health scare raised its head, and yet it was only a handful of weeks. The endoscopy is...

Current Games of Interest: July 2019

by Naithin | Jul 22, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Blog, Final Fantasy XIV, Other Games | 0

This one’s a little odd. Usually I have another game I’m adding when I do these posts. Not so this time. But I’ve been giving my games list on the sidebar the side-eye for a while. It is very much not accurate. Beyond even the...

Starting The Horrible Hundred

by Naithin | Jul 21, 2019 | Final Fantasy XIV | 8

Eeesh. So not too long ago I finished Final Fantasy XIV’s ‘A Realm Reborn’ (or 2.0) main story. I discovered that there were a hundred quests standing between me and the next expansion — Heavensward. Each of those quests can...

Final Fantasy XIV Main Story Complete!

by Naithin | Jul 15, 2019 | Final Fantasy XIV | 2

Final Fantasy XIV’s original (well, ‘A Realm Reborn’ original) main story quest is complete. What amazes me most is the quick turnaround I had from acknowledging the procrastination problem and just getting on and pushing through....

Health Scare vs. Final Fantasy XIV

by Naithin | Jul 13, 2019 | Final Fantasy XIV, Gaming, Other | 7

Progress in Final Fantasy XIV has been slow. Fits and starts best describes it. Small bursts of energy and then fairly long patches of procrastination. Just getting myself to jump in and get started is the real challenge. Once I am in —...

Time to Loot Journal: June 2019

by Naithin | Jun 30, 2019 | Final Fantasy XIV, Journal, Other Games | 0

I don’t think I’ve provided an update on my work situation since the May Journal, so here we go. I’ve ended up not leaving after all. I had put my hand up to leave in order to take a look for something new out there. I needed a...

Second Go-Round with Nioh

by Naithin | Jun 18, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Blog, Final Fantasy XIV, Other Games, Tomb Raider, Transport Fever | 3

This has been coming for a wee while. Ever since playing Sekiro, the urge to play Nioh again has been building. Making time for it has been another matter entirely. I have been playing a bit more this month than I did last month though. Although in...

Time to Loot Journal: May 2019

by Naithin | Jun 1, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Final Fantasy XIV, Journal, Other Games, The Division 2, Transport Fever | 2

Well… May is a month that happened. While nothing as earth shaking as March, it was closer to home. In the respect that it was both to people I knew and to a degree it was from action I was executing. I’m talking about the restructure...

FFXIV Back Again

by Naithin | May 28, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Blog, Final Fantasy XIV, Other Games, The Division 2, Tomb Raider, Transport Fever | 4

This month has been very light on gaming. Mostly, I think, due to the changes at work. As I mentioned in that post, there were unavoidable impacts to my team where a few positions had to be cut and I know for one in particular this has been quite a...

Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey Added to the Game List and Other Surprises

by Naithin | Apr 27, 2019 | Assassin's Creed, Blog, Final Fantasy XIV, Other Games, The Division 2, Tomb Raider | 0

Still not sure what the right rhythm for updating the games list is. Or even if there will be a ‘rhythm’ to it at all. I had intended to make updates on a monthly cycle but here we are with the second update this month. It has become...
