Why does Tokon look so peak man. There are like 7 characters I could realistically see myself playing, so narrowing down is gonna be a fun time. All this is to say im still waiting for Moon Knight.

One other for tonight. I'm bad but god I feel powerful despite it.

The more I see of Aion 2, the more upset I get. I wanted to play it for a week and say "that was neat, so long" but the game actually looks mad fun, and a lot of the early reservations I had about the game have been addressed looking at reviews of the more current Korean build. Bruh...

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 14/06/2026

Update, I found a character in Uni2 that brain hurty less. Still in MMO brain rn, but we may in fact be back. It is Gordaeu for those curious.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

I can't wait to move, so I'll have a local scene that is actually local, but until then I just have very low drive to grind. Until that day, its back to the raiding mines for me.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Thank god im on a FFXIV kick as of late, bc the fighting game part of my brain is hurting lately. Strive is fun, but no friends play it. Granblue refuses to update the game in a meaningful way, so I've given up caring. Sf6... Uni2 I do have friends playing, but FB games make brain hurty.

Aion Online was the first MMO I played back in 2010. It is the game my current user name is based on, and the first game I ever spent over 10 hours a session to grind. Despite being a pretty bad Korean MMO, it is a game that means a lot to me. Im very excited to play it (I expect to drop it fast).

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 01/06/2026

Damn. That sounds like I should fix it...

Happy pride month to all, and to all a good gay. ...did I... did I do that right? Im still trying to figure this all out... ...what do you mean the mic is still

I’ve always seen guides on how to improve FFXIV gameplay, learn certain fights, etc which are all very valuable ofc! But I felt like no one talked about the mental aspects that go into a high level environment. A lot of times I’ve been told “it’s no big deal, just get over it!”

Going through savage to get caught up and get back into a raiding mindset has reminded me of one thing. God, I miss having a static. PF stinky.

People saying that it's actually a bad thing that Xeno got in-game banned bc of something he did on stream playing ffxiv content bc now it can happen to any of us. Guess I gotta make sure when streaming i'm not a misogynistic PoS who throws slurs around nonstop. Hard, but I'll try my best :)

Do not fucking preach to me about "not giving him attention" in response to me celebrating and making fun of a known bigot and misogynist finally facing consequences for his behaviour oh my god it's not feeding the troll if the troll just got kicked from the bridge, get some fucking perspective

So I heard the bald man got banned. Good day to all who celebrate.

WE GOT THE JOB BABY WOOOO Im gonna give myself some time to get situated into my new schedule (and bc I promised friends I would watch Eva with the alliance raid coming out) so here closer to July i'll start up streaming again. Gonna try to do variety (got some ideas already) with a FFXIV focus.

Update btw, could not get the ideal shift I wanted... yet. Union Rebidding is a long and wierd process, but by next week, there is a chance I will get the position I want, which would open three days up a week for streaming. So yeah, maybe we start it back up if that goes through.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

Ok, I think it's been long enough where I can say it as I've tried for so long... I genuinely do not understand the "Zenos is our mirror" narrative. It's not even an "I hate Zenos and dont care" thing either. I genuinely dont understand how he mirrors our character. #FFXIV peeps help me understand

000

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 06/05/2026

New schedules coming out for work that should open up more free time plus a renewed vigor for both FFXIV and Strive... ...do I dare return to streaming.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 05/05/2026

Also, while we are at it, please make tanks all very unique. I mean this with my whole chest... give me a tank I hate. If you make a tank I dont like, it at least means it is vastly different than its current iteration, which is progress.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 05/05/2026

Man, I can't wait for 8.0 fight design. Seeing what the team can do without the limits of raid buffs will be very fun. Also with the middle tier of 8 mans launching, we might be opening the door to making savage more challenging overall. Anything to make combat less stale.

Between Fanfest and the latest Patch MSQ (no spoilers, dw) I have this weird feeling. Is it Hope....

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 27/04/2026

Since we are in #FFXIV Fanfest season, I feel like this needs to be said. If people hate you for story skipping... Fuck em But if you turn around and shit on the story or that the game "didn't teach you anything"... fuck you. Play the game your way, but please know what you're getting into.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

I like Pombon a little too much methinks. Please keep your paws on the ground this time. PLEASE

This allows me to relearn all my setups on a new control scheme. Starting fresh while still being on comfort will probs be for the best.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

I've been convinced of two things... One is to finally make the jump to Hitbox. Been meaning to for a while now, and second thing gives me a good excuse. That being... Im gonna go back to Bea now that im back in granblue mode. Ilsa is mega fun but she still feels a little too honest for me.

100

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Alright, I go back to work and then go lie down and hope brain stop being stinky. Have cat that is definitely cat dont think too hard about it.

000

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Oh yeah, speaking of games... damn you @jasonfails.fail.party... Mewgenics is really fun, and I forgot how much I like this brand of strategy game. The humor is a little newgrounds for me, but damn it im enjoying it. But then again its a cat game, I could only hate it so much.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Onto my other competitive itch, I might get back into granblue tournaments to see how im faring. As long as I can get back to my 2-2 form, we'll be in business. I'm definitely gonna look into a hitbox soon tho.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Gotta say, depression be damned this boy can League of Legends. Up to a personal peak of P2 27lp. The fact I could hit emerald (and am laning evenly woth Emeralds) is wack. Maybe if I feel up to it ill start up streaming some nights just for chill league ranked to unwind.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Thursday thoughts VII & VIII: hehe oops. Brain been no good as of late, so I just fully spaced on this (which is fine bc its just supposed to be for me, but trying to build a habit and breaking that is no bueno). I'll throw some thoughts I've had, but this one is gonna be light.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 26/02/2026

Me realizing I didn't do any posting for a week and a half bc sad and sick again:

000

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

Alright, that's gonna be all for me today. I feel like one good thing this is doing is through reflecting on the week, I can kinda figure out what I should be focusing more on in my life. This week is definitely getting that last point taken care of :) So long for now and stay not sad.

000

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

As a slightly heavier topic, man im glad my hobbies have kept me distracted from the rest of my life. I can feel the depression wanting to come back and work rn is not making it any easier (won't go into detail, but everyone at work is on edge bc of business decisions). We stay vibing for now.

100

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

Speaking of Fighting games... man that 2XKO news huh. Not shocked given I know how Riot does shit with its non League games, but it is disheartening. Im still hopeful the team that's left can still make a good product, but I fear this will be a LoR 2.

100

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

That being said, probs gonna stay away from tournaments for at least a little bit. I kinda want to build back up my play and get to where I feel im confident again before I go back to that level of grind.

100

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

I talked about it earlier in the week, but yeah, Ilsa may really be bringing me back into this game. Im very rusty on the more advanced things I used to do, and i definitely need to lab her out bc she has a lot of dumb shit to parse, but the will to grind is returning.

I know nothing about this game. I have no clue if it's fun or not. I hope people enjoy themselves. That name is on thin fucking ice I stg.

Taera @taerabol.bsky.social · 09/02/2026

Between the 2XKO news (which really sucks) and Ilsa looking neat... ill probably be getting back into Granblue methinks. Gonna play some tonight to test Ilsa out and get back in the swing of things... we'll see how the 5 month (my god) hiatus has done for my drive.
