30, he/him Nerd culture enthusiast, I probably have too many thoughts about games.

I mean, there have to be *some* perks to being an adult

Damn, that's both exciting and terrifying 😄 Plenty of bang for your buck at least!

I've played WoW on and off (mostly off) since Mists of Pandaria and would say I've never been super into it, but even without the nostalgia I am down bad to jump into WoW Forever. Craving a chonky MMO and seeing beta gameplay is only getting me more excited.

Grats man, that's a behemoth out of the way! What did your final hour count clock in at?

Compiling shaders is the sleep paralysis demon of modern gaming, you shouldn't forget it exists but you do and when it happens it's the worst feeling 😫

That sounds sensible, I think I recruited more units than I needed on my first P1 so just stopped using some of them after a while because the game didn't demand that many units and they were cannibalising exp. Did you do Leda first? If so, sounds like we're doing the same order 😄

Yeah I read it's been one of the longest periods of consecutive rainy days - definitely felt that way! It was more annoying than anything because staying in Shinjuku it wasn't too bad, though I know other areas had it worse with flooding. At least the rain helped mitigate the heat somewhat 😅

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Yeah I get that! It'll be interesting to see if they keep leaning further into this style in future, or if they do something more narrowly tactics-focused akin to Engage next to try and keep their different audiences happy, as both formats seem somewhat divisive 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Thanks buddy, having a break was great but it's nice to be seeing what everyone's up to again 😌

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
Good point, at least the temples have an end point and the baths are pretty much always optional. I think the meals and arena wouldn't be quite so bad if there was at least a little more variation in the voice lines each time, or if they were just faster to skip through 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
The more I hear, the more interested I am to find out how I'll feel by the end of this route - I was expecting to have less of the weekly stuff to keep on top of as the game went on, not adding daily tasks on top of the existing stuff! 😄 Rewards for it sound interesting, curious to learn more!

Thanks Jesse! Yeah it was absolutely sick, loved it despite the hiccup 🤩 Hope you've been keeping well mate

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Ohh interesting, I only saw a small bit of him during my time with Leda so looking forward to meeting him properly! Yeah that's where I'm at with recruits, I think some have really cool designs but it's weird they're never really introduced in the story. Who the hell is Zarcone and why do I care 😂
020
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Oh man that's tough, I've only done Leda part 1 so far and I feel like all the recruitable characters are pretty meh and forgettable, but I love all the main crew in this part. Probably Mu or Buccar, both strong and I like their dynamic! Hbu? 👀
120
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Oh god there's more?!? So far I've only completed Leda's part 1 and just started Cai's. This is not the news I needed to hear 😂

Ok to be fair perfect bird time is actually kinda enjoyable just because you get to observe them at the end, whistle at them and have them just randomly let out a disgusted EUUUUGGHGHHG sometimes

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
I've just started my second part 1 route and I do get the impression that I'll be thinking this in a much less whimsical way by the fourth 😅
120
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
It says a lot that the game is still so enjoyable regardless, but yeah sometimes I do be here questioning what I'm doing with my life 😂

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
That would make sense, hopefully we hear more at some point. Really cool game, I need to build up the motivation to actually go back and finish it 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
I (meal lv 3) really (temple service) love (arena training) Fire (meal lv 3) Emblem (gift) Fortune's (watch theatre performance) Weave (meal lv 3) despite (bathe) some (perfect bird time) annoyances (weekly actions are available again).

I can picture the parents after her birth saying "and we shall call her... Female!" And another set of new parents near them thinking "damn that's good, we gotta steal that for our kid"

Thanks mate 😁 Yeah I was staying there, and by like the 3rd night I was already thinking "huh, now I know how they keep on getting so much inspiration for weird substories" 😂

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Thank you, good to be back! 😌 So many great memories from it, can't wait to go back again one day!

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Duuuuude same, I only heard it for the first time the other day and now I can't stop humming it!

Instructions unclear, giving Juno a 2nd mythic so she can be a part of that special group while some characters don't even have 1 yet 🫡

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
It sounded at one point like they were planning on a bunch of DLC for the game. I think it would have been a really cool idea to invite a bunch of guest writers to make additional routes!

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Lmao i had the exact same reaction, both not realising that Shadow Monarch is Solo Levelling and thinking it was supposed to be edgerunners 🗿
010
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
I'd definitely recommend it, and yeah some new theming for Evercold would be sick! You'll have to let me know if you go 😄

My phone is almost out of space, I took that many 😂 I know you're a XIV player, I got to visit the Eorzea Café which was super cool!

I'm also jealous of past me! 😅

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Love to hear it! I'm not fully up-to-date but started the series a couple of years back and can confidently vouch for the whole journey being worth it, it really rewards the time you put into all the games. Hope you keep having a great time with SC!

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Likewise mate! I'm looking forward to seeing what I've missed on here the past few weeks 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Thank you! It was so good, I was pretty upset on the day I finally had to come home haha 😅

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
The originals still hold up surprisingly well! Glad to see another one fall to the Trails curse 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
Thanks man! Was an absolutely incredible time, already planning on starting to save soon for a second trip back at some point 😄

I didn't get around to posting any Tokyo Game Show pics because the day I was due to go was cancelled because of a typhoon. Unfortunate but the rest of the trip more than made up for it! Incredibly cool place, even more so as a giganerd. 2 weeks of being constantly astounded.

Hello Bsky friends, been a while 😉 I'm back from a Japan trip + some extra time to catch up on life stuff, so you'll start seeing me around again. Looking forward to seeing what everyone's been up to!

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
That's kinda good in a way to be fair! The less you know going in, the more room for surprises 😄 I do a similar thing trying to plan out series to focus on, although I need a few breaks in between so I think I'll be carrying on with Trails a good bit into 2027. Curious to see what you land on!
120
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
Do you have a shortlist or anything of franchises you'd want to consider getting into? Or hoping the right thing might just come along?
120
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
100%. I wish we could go back to a time when games looked a little less photorealistic, led with a bold art direction and came out at a slightly more regular cadence between entries.
030
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
Great to hear 😌 I think even with being nearly fully caught up with Trails, Sky SC is still my favourite game of the lot so hope you have an incredible time with it, I'm sure the remake will do it justice! 😄
030
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
Yeah it's been all good here thanks mate 🙌 Same for you I hope? Also hope you're ready for this mega Thursday coming, any idea which one you're jumping into first? 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Thanks mate! 😄

Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Thank you! It's my first time so managed to fill up a 2 week itinerary in Tokyo alone, already thinking it'd be nice to go again and experience places outside of it but just treating this one as a city trip 😌 Whereabouts are you headed when you go back?
110
Finn @t3finn.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Thanks very much mate 😄 Hope you're doing good too!
