I'm making this post cuz I realized I haven't really used or updated my website in a while, and I think now's a good time to update my online free web friends on what's been going on in my life.

Gaming

Games are nice. They're a good distraction from alot of the bullshit I'm personally going through. Recently an alpha test for Vindictus: Defying Fate I was pretty excited for the game at first, but then I got my hands on it and it's not as great as I thought it would be. Still a fine game, but I find that I like the combat from the old MMO better, and while this is similar, it's not quite hitting the same way. I may expand in a later post, but I need some time to really think about what this game is doing and how I'm receiving it.

In other news, I started playing this early access game called Final Knight It's a nice beat em up RPG that has quite a bit of depth. I've spent about uhhh.... 17 hours playing over the course of the past week. It took a while, but I got the hang for it's classes and equipment mangement features. I think I'll write a proper review sometime soon to give it some more exposure. It's a great game and I htink more folks should see it.

On the more social side, I still wanna start a local in my neighborhood, but I still need like uhhh two TVs and a pandora's box. I might just use my MiSTer and a TV to start, but with the renovations it's sorta hard to stash stuff in the house since the house is being moved around so much. I had a really great time at in person events this year. I went to a puzzle game event in North Carolina, and we had Max Mode here in the state of GA. We've also got the "last"

Shinobi said this one would be the last, but he's said that a few times already. considering the state of the economy he might mean it this time.

Climax of Night coming up, and I hope to really have a good time there. Hopefully I'll have a car by then so I can spend as much time hanging out at the venue as I want.

Community/Personal

I've been trying to get more involved in my community, and it's been going well I think, but I recently had a bit of a mental breakdown, and I realized that I need to step away from them for a while so I can focus on getting my ass into a therapist's chair. Real or Virtual. I delayed on getting therapy mostly cuz my current insurance sucks ass, and this has probably been the hardest time I've ever had trying to get mental health support.

FUCK KAISER PERMANENTE DO NOT CHOOSE THEM AS A PROVIDER

We had to get that one out. Anything I can do to hurt them as a company is worth it.

Home life has sucked and work has actually been pretty good for the first time in a few years. The home stuff is why I'm trying to get therapy, and it's not the end of the world, but it's something I should get professional help for at some point.

Future Website Updates

I have a few things I've been wanting to do with the website, and hopefully i get back to them the list includes.....

• making a /now page
• making the one shitpost page
• more reviews and improving the articles/writings section
• an archive of my best cohost posts

We'll get there eventually. Take care!!
