    This post is a part of the #Listmas initiative. Check it out and participate!I started this back in June 2015, and have been keeping up with it this past month.

    Long Term FFXIV Goals

    So I’ve seriously gotten into FFXIV all of a sudden. I think a big part of that is because Chaide has stepped back from WildStar (I’m hoping he’ll write a guest post as to why, because he puts it so very well), and has picked up FFXIV as his main game. Another big part of it is that I’m feeling a little burned out on WildStar. While I still love it, and it’s still my favorite game, the growth the guild has gone through, as well as some growing pains, have made things a tad bit more “job-like” as of late. I’m hoping it calms down this week, some, though.…

    Gaming Goals: October

    I’ve been enjoying putting together this gaming goals thing I decided to try out in June. It’s helped me focus my time and come up with blog posts. Life has definitely kept me busy as of late, especially since I’ve been focusing a bit more on some real-life activities. Like concerts (Chaide and I’re going to both a Meg Myers and Rasputina concerts this month!), festivals (bluegrass and chili, here I come!), and non-computer gaming (D&D campaign run by Chaide, and a local Mind’s Eye Theatre Vampire LARP). Plus the holidays are coming. It starts with Halloween and doesn’t end until New Years! So, here’s what I hope to achieve during October,…

    I started this back in June 2015, and have been keeping up with it this past month.

    GOOOOOLD!

    Yesterday was the first time I’ve been in-game since… the 30th of August? Wow. That was almost two weeks without games. Oh boy was it rough, haha. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD! But I had some fun in WildStar! One of our guildies is working on attument and is at the Adventures stage, so we decided to hit up Malgrave to help him out. It was nice to run some stuff with guildies, and it was even nicer to get Gold for the first time while in there! I’ve run Veteran Malgrave Trail quite a bit in my time playing WildStar, and I was glad to finally be able to get gold out of…

    Gaming Goals: September

    I’ve been enjoying putting together this gaming goals thing I decided to try out in June. It’s helped me focus my time and come up with blog posts. Just like in July, August had a lot of real life stuff, so I once again cut down on my goals some more. Or rather, I put in more goals that are things I really want to do and will keep me logging into various games. So, without further ado, my gaming goals for September (albeit a tad late)! WildStar Goals Chestnut Do some more contracts in general (PvP and/or PvE) Reach max reputation in either Crimson Badlands or Northern Wastes Work on completing my…

    Gaming Goals Review: August

    I started this back in June 2015, and have been keeping up with it this past month. I had reduced my goals for July because I knew that we would have limited play time as we had ten days of vacation time, as well as getting ready to move on August 1st. So, let’s see if tuning down my goals made them easier to accomplish! Goals: Relax and game! WildStar Goals Chestnut Reach the max tier of the PvP contracts for the first time ever Reach max reputation in Crimson Badlands Reach max rep in Northern Wastes Complete my AMP (55) and AP (48) points Put up Yardcore Nexus twice once for the…

    Bleeder of the Pack

    This is post 15 of 31 for the Blaugust event. To check out more Blaugust posts and sign up to participate, visit the Blaugust Nook! The Salt Strands in FFXIV over near Lamia. I’ve been on kind of a screenshot kick, lately. This one I took while I was working on my Marauder quest, Bleeder of the Pack. I’ve been posting all these screenshots mainly because I’m trying to catch up on Blaugust posts (don’t judge!). But also because life has been so busy, as of late. I haven’t been getting in as much gaming as I’ve wanted to, and it’s wearing on me. The last time I hopped into Final Fantasy was…
