May 2023 Gaming Goals in Review
Posted on May 31
This has been a pretty busy gaming month for me, especially with FFXIV patch 6.4 dropping. I talked about how I did push through this on four different characters… I also took care of a lot of the goals I made this month – things I wanted to finish before the patch dropped.

I’m not sure what got into me over the weekend as I pushed through and finished the 6.4 MSQ on four different characters. This isn’t something I usually do on patch week, but I’m glad I got it done.

One of the gifts I got for my birthday this past week was the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster bundle for Nintendo Switch. I’ve been awaiting the release of this set of games – though I hadn’t thought to get them as a bundle until I realized you get a little bit of a price break by doing so.
Second Life: Getting Back into Breedable Pets
Posted on May 11
I’ve had the itch to get back into breedable pets in Second Life lately. It’s been years since I’ve been involved with breedables, and I just have the room and resources to put towards them at this point.

FFXIV: First Ever Pentamelded Gear!
