Well, this certainly reminds me of my teenage years. Finish one game and move onto the next one. I was hoping to take a break until August with Tales of Xillia but I'm back in the saddle with FF XIV: A Realm Reborn and for my first 'legit' MMO experience, I've got to say that it is fun. I haven't hooked up with any of my friends to do quests or anything like that but there isn't really anything that I dislike about it thus far. If I end up finding myself addicted to it, I'll probably pick it up whenever it drops in August. Hopefully a job will come along and I'll be able to pick up a subscription for it along with the eventual apartment that I'm hoping to have before the end of the year. For my character, Bael Masters, I decided to make him a Gladiator due to my obsession with swords. It'll be nice to become a Paladin down the line but since this is the beta, I'm pretty sure that everything is going to be wiped for the full release. I spent most of my day doing quests, searching for an eye patch because it is vital to the Bael character so you know that I was very happy when I managed to pick one up for completing a quest. Because of Bael's abilities, I decided to go with the Miqo'te race. I'll probably try to get some screenshots out because I'm liking where this is going. Since I share my PSN information with Corey, I'll tell him to get it off of my name so we can play the beta. It'll be good to have a familiar face online with me since this is my first time playing an MMO like this so it'll be nice to have a familiar face around. Zero wants to team up tomorrow so we'll see.

Everything is going well with The Last of Us outside of the fact that I've been neglecting it for the past day or so to goof around with Corey in Saints Row: The Third. No matter how many times I play through it, it never gets old. Not sure if I want to pick up the DLC for it but Naughty Dog should bring out the DLC for The Last of Us because I am fucking ready for more! The Last of Us isn't a type of game that I can just ditch so I know I'll be going back for more. It just feels weird without it, you know? I really need to get started on the multiplayer because some people love it and some hate it. I like to experience everything for myself so that's what I'll do.

Slow week on the roleplay front but I'm the cause of that. I've been fleshing out some information on my OC in between gaming stints so that's something worth mentioning. I hate -not- having everything completed so that is why I've been so obsessed with getting it done. I don't think I'll make the Masters surname canon because I feel like it is always weird when demon/demonic characters have surnames so it'll probably be a FF XIV exclusive for me. The character has a family so it would be really weird to tack on the last name out of nowhere when you have three or possibly four characters that you end up screwing over in the end. Either way, outside of trying to get to max level in XIV (hopefully), I want to get back into roleplaying but I'll probably say screw it and get involved in my video games once more. In more great gaming news, an old friend picked up The Last of Us and a new friend purchased a PS3, so woop woop.

I think this was the first time in a while that multiple online have decided to bring it to my attention that I've been neglecting my duties as a friend. I don't mind it as long as they are willing to talk about it but let's be real here: If I'm enjoying myself and they are capable of doing he same, am I really doing anything wrong? Being online is fun and I love Twitter but my real interest lies in my video games right now. Hopefully with this method of putting in five applications per week, I'll land something that I can at least stand and dive deeper into my addiction. As long as I remember to eat, I don't think it should be a problem. Just because I'm quiet on Twitter, that doesn't mean I won't answer if you text, IM or DM me. I'm 'off the grid' but I won't bite your head off if you try to talk to me. I guess it's just that most of my Twitter friends expect for me to initiate the conversation and that's cool since I am a talkative fuckhead 90% of the time. I introduced Becca and Brenda to Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!! and they love it so A+ for me on enabling my friends. I need to get more people into it because let's face it..we all could use a good laugh.

Wow, this is getting pretty long so I should shut up and get back to gaming. Long story short: friends think I'm a douche, I really like gaming (and boobies) and I need a job. Until next time~

PS: The Shingeki no Kyojin OST is baller, Ray Donovan is dope and Dexter starts back on Sunday so it should be a good week for me overall!
