CONTENT UPDATE! Final Fantasy XIV is finally out on Switch 2… which means I have no excuse not to finish Dawntrail now! But I need your help. Starting THIS SUNDAY, I’ll be LIVE on Twitch with FFXIV. Hold me accountable! I gotta finish this game before Evercold!

DRAGON QUEST XII: BEYOND DREAMS looks great! Also the hero’s hair is WAY better than in DQ XI 😂

OMG AM I IN A DRAGON QUEST GAME?! And is this a nod to my love of FFXV fishing?! This is a heck of a coincidence 😂

Idk, maybe instead of saying "They ruined the art direction!" we could just chalk it up to an example of "Dynamic Weather." But then again, I'm a glass half full kinda guy. Either way, I think it looks terrific.

ProfNoctis @profnoctis.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

I never played AC: Black Flag back in the day, but after watching the reveal showcase, Resynced is exactly what I want. These shots look incredible. I don't know much about the historical Golden Era of Pirates, but you can bet I'll be learning (and sharing with you) this summer

ProfNoctis @profnoctis.bsky.social · 31/01/2026

The official FF7 account posted this for the 29th anniversary… Incredible concept art! Remake is giving us the closest thing to what the devs originally had conceived— and then some! Also, might we see this multi-headed dragon in the return to Midgar in part 3??? 🤯 🤞

ProfNoctis @profnoctis.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

During last night’s stream, someone redeemed their channel points for me to do a quick sketch of Roche while live. Here it is, in just a few minutes. RAH RAH ROCHE!

Prof's "Rant of the Day," redeemed through channel points on stream: From Highguard to Final Fantasy, some opinions just aren't worth engaging with. Here's the one thing that makes me tune out someone.

ProfNoctis @profnoctis.bsky.social · 27/01/2026

Reminder that I’m starting at 9PM tonight. But it’s worth it because it’s a TIFA TUESDAY STREAM! Life lessons from one of the best characters in gaming. See ya on YT/Twitch! YT: YouTube.com/@profnoctis T: Twitch.tv/profnoctis

See you on Twitch and YouTube! *Note: once again, work is interfering, but not to worry— we’ll do it!

ProfNoctis @profnoctis.bsky.social · 27/01/2026

I don’t play a lot of shooters anymore, but playing Highguard with friends on a snow day gave me the best kind middle school nostalgia today. Also, love my boi Slade
