iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Not gonna lie, I absolutely suck at keeping up with new #music. It's not that I avoid it, but new stuff just rarely sticks and I mostly dislike the 'new songs for you' recommended #spotify playlists. My most recent liked song, from 2014 by #BraveShores

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 02/01/2025

Ngl, #GirlsFrontline2's #Gacha is probably the worst I've seen in games, I've played recently. Is that really what games get away with? Multiple copies needed with an abysmal rate. Limited time banner, without any real guarantees. The units not being added to standard after? Feels bad all around.

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 31/12/2024

🧵 10/300(?!) As always, only got 10 free rolls when it matters and with 'em looking like that, I doubt I can get away with anything but a spark. Not all hope lost, but my last 3 sparks have been absolute garbage... #GranblueFantasy #Gacha

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 31/12/2024

It's time for the annual zodiac spark and I mean, how could you not? Look at her! I haven't really played much in '24 and not even touched any of the high difficulty content in even longer, but #GranblueFantasy is still my longest running #gacha ever.

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 20/12/2024

You ever watch someone play a game and suddenly, not only wanna play it too, but start again from zero? Thanks ChristopherOdd on #YouTube! I haven't played the DLC or had that much progress, but I'm going in fresh! The game is great for that~ #Brotato #BrotatoAbyssalTerrors

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 18/12/2024

And there it is, December 26th to January 15th for her debut banner. No idea how the game is handling Christmas/New Years, maybe we'll get some free tickets, to make acquiring her less painful? Regardless, to roll or not to roll~ #GirlsFrontline #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 17/12/2024

After hard binging #BattleMageFarmer 1-6, it's time to go back to #DefianceOfTheFall and continue that adventure. Both still great #LitRPG #Audiobooks and I'm still not sick of the medium yet.

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 17/12/2024

"#Makiatto, reporting for duty!" Looks like WA2000 will be the next new/old doll, to throw your money at! Game's still fun and it's super early, if anyone's thinking about jumping in. #GirlsFrontline #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium

Literally devouring this series. #BattleMageFarmer is still going strong and I'm already on Book Six! I'd love to read before bed and work on my backlog, but after a day of staring at screens, I'll let my ears do the work for once~ #Audiobook #Audible #LitRPG

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 14/12/2024

I haven't played any other (real) game since this beast went live... Yeah, you could say it's pretty good~ (esp once you get rid of PoE1 brain) Like I posted, I've started all base classes once and didn't even reach maps yet on any, so many skills/combos to try out. #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2

After playing a couple of acts per character, my enjoyment ranking: ❤️ -Ranger: 🏹/⚡ -Sorc:⚡ -Witch: Tank🩻/🟣dot -Warr: 👐🔨/Slam -Merc: 🔥/💣 -Monk: Quarterstaff/❄️⚡ 💔 Still a lot to explore and figure out. Been a blast so far, though. #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 13/12/2024

#IntergalacticTheHereticProphet is way more in my ballpark than #TheLastOfUs has ever been. The retro future rogue vibe is really great. I would've skipped any news/discussion for it anyway, just to avoid spoilers and seeing the disgusting discourse around is, even more so.

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 10/12/2024

After a bit of reflection, I understand why #PathOfExile2 is giving me sad nostalgia. It vibes, and early on plays, like I imagined #Diablo3 was going to, back in the day. I was never a D3 hater (just don't mention D4), but it could've been so much more. PoE2 is delivering what I envisioned~

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

Imagine being #Twitch / #Amazon, with thousands of artists in your care, that would sell their soul to do artwork for you, for free, and you're like: 'Eh, I don't care, too much effort!' *fires up AI* This whole thing looks bad, feels bad and somehow even tastes bad...

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 07/12/2024

While the first couple level were kinda rough, once past and I found skills I liked, #PathOfExile2 felt kinda great. It's clearly different, but still familiar. Tech side, 2 crashes in 12 hours, no lag(Frankfurt), stable 60fps. More than acceptable. Playing Merc-Gemling/xBow/Grenades, Lv29.

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Totally worth the wait! #PathOfExile2 is so different but so similar, I need way more hours to adjust to the changes though. Not even counting all the normal stuff to learn. Can't wait to continue later tomorrow. WASD Merc is fun~

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

Now that I have the most important Christmas decorations behind me, lemme ask you @pathofexile: When #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2 Crocs deco token? Small Kitava, cute armoured kiwi, orb of chaos?

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 06/12/2024

I'm not an expert, but that's not looking like a healthy number of player. Not enough nostalgic boomer into gaming anymore or young fans willing to pay that price? I expected not the world, especially between #PathOfExile2 and #MarvelRivals, but c'mon... #IndianaJonesandtheGreatCircle

Just for the 3 people I saw, that tried to convince themselves, that the #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2 hype was bought, made-up or otherwise fake. Join me in front of the server farm, let's watch the flames together. You bring the choci, I the marshmallows. youtu.be/-iFva8e6PhA?...

It's probably the absolute worst time for that. #OfflineDay I'd fight my neighbors or family, just to have free time in front of the PC on those days. #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

It's been years since I last had fruity Soju, but I've seen it so often on my TL that I couldn't resist. No idea about the brand or price, but without bothering to research, I just got a couple top seller off Amazon. Might make a great combo with #PathOfExile2 😂

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

I've only now looked at my #SpotifyWrapped #SpotifyWrapped2024 and it's kinda what I expected. I only had roughly 2½ #music moods this year. Active: Fun/Pumpy Electro Chill/Sleep: LowFi Electro Focus/Sleep: Alternative Classic

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

Call me cynical, but seeing #PathOfExile2 as top dog is making me dread the server performance tomorrow. I hope and pray (to Chris Wilson AND Gabe Newell) that all goes smoothly, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ain't. 🙏🎮🙏

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 05/12/2024

While I still have a day free for non- #PathOfExile2 stuff, #GirlsFrontline2Exilium is chugging along nicely (currently end of act 4) and when on non-voiced missions, I started a new #audiobook: #Domestication aka #BattleMageFarmer. Another #LitRPG, after I finished #DefianceOfTheFall book 1.

WHAT? First I rediscovered #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium just in time (which is great, btw) and now THIS is going strong for an English release? My 'no mobile/gacha' didn't really last long..., been looking forward to this since the JP launch! #Umamusume #UmamusumePrettyDerby

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

If you decided to wait for the actual EU(and friends) client for #GirlsFrontline #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium and see all the other folks already playing, don't lose heart and hype. It's 100% worth it, no matter the short delay. It's a certified banger!

010

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

Between #PathOfExile2 on the 6th and #GirlsFrontline2Exilium in less than an hour, the 5th might even be an even worse launch date for me. I can only see myself jumping in, if #GirlsFrontline2's dailies/grind is over quick. Sorry #InfinityNikki, you'll be on the back burner for now~

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 03/12/2024

Oh, no. Don't tell me #InfinityNikki is also going live today? Totally forgot about the game, haven't seen any buzz about it anywhere on my feeds... I'm sorry, unless it's actually live NOW, it's not competing with #GirlsFrontline #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium! Lemme quickly check~

Whatever may be up with the #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2 drama of yesterday, don't get swept up in the muck. It's not worth it and only distracts from the hype~ Better focus on this here and pray for a smooth EA launch!

I was JUST NOW made aware, that the 'GLOBAL' release date, I see everywhere for #GirlsFrontline #GirlsFrontline2Exilium, is in fact NOT global (RIP EU) at all... I guess that's what I get, for not wanting to get spoiled and avoiding information. Can I just get the US APK or is it region locked?

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

It's kind of a shame that #DragonAge #DragonAgeVeilguard didn't click with me. I enjoyed many things during my 2x15+ hrs, but the reactive action combat really didn't fit my mood after all. That was not the game to play after #Metaphor or pausing #TrailsOfColdSteel for...

020

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 02/12/2024

It's finally time for the first gaming checkpoint in December~ Shame that the predownload isn't live for PC/Steam, but it'll have to do for now. I've seen some, let's call 'em intriguing, clips for the game. Big if true! #GirlsFrontline #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium

Fkn December, innit? On the 3rd, #GirlsFrontline2 #GirlsFrontline2Exilium. On the 6th, #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2. Until then, decorating for Christmas and #TrailsOfColdSteel3! This'll be some busy busy weeks~

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 30/11/2024

I don't know if almost 6 hours are still considered sneak peak territory... Couldn't help myself~ Enjoyed #TrailsOfColdSteel #TrailsOfColdSteel3 so far. Shame that the prior save didn't matter, but I dig the new environments, gfx, mechanics and characters.

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 29/11/2024

#HereticalFishing was a fun listen! Can recommend, if you're lookin' for a comfy good-time #litRPG. Needing another #audiobook, I finally picked up #DefianceOfTheFall. Had it on my list for quite some time and it's a BIG one (in popularity and size)~

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 29/11/2024

FINALLY! #TrailsOfColdSteel2 is done~ Bit mixed at times, but still quite positive overall. End could've done with like 5-10 hours less busy work. Now, quick peek into #TrailsOfColdSteel3 and lemme see if I'll continue right now or take a break.

000

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 28/11/2024

I'll be honest, #TrailsOfColdSteel2 is dragging on hard... Without the context of #TrailsOfColdSteel3, or any other Trails, I could've easily seen it ending with the palace or Rean's return to school (without the intermission bit). The last dungeon just made me quit for the day, just end it ffs.

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 28/11/2024

I haven't played much of it, especially in recent years, but if this isn't the biggest redemption arc in gaming, I don't know what is. Took 8 years~ #NoMansSky

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Let's see if I can finish this bad boi today~ Ngl, not as big a fan of the overall flow as in 1. Needed bit of a break, but let's tackle the Finale. #TrailsOfColdSteel #TrailsOfColdSteel2 #ToCS #ToCS2

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Everyone probably stumbled upon the #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2 classes already, voluntary or not, so I don't feel bad about sharing. I usually league start some kind of necromancer, so it was likely that I'd just stick with it. That was before seeing the gemling legionnaire..., really neat concept.

010

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

Still avoiding additional spoilers and unsolicited 'sneak peaks' from events participants for #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2 like the plague. My hype is rather charged, but I'm not gonna theory craft anything, before getting my own hands on it. Only important decision is, what class to start?!

020

Liam Carrigan @liamcarriganttv.bsky.social · 26/11/2024

Man, what's up in the content creator bubble of #PathOfExile #PathOfExile2? Folks are eating each other over the most insignificant things. Are y'all actually excited to play the game, or is it just another source for content and good for clicks? Drama is so stupid...
