Why I Uninstalled Dragalia Lost Today
I have played Dragalia Lost since it released; I finished downloading and installing on September 27th at three in the morning. I remember showing it off to a coworker who looked it over with lukewarm reception, before reminding me that I was at work to, well, work. Today is December 3rd. Not even a full three months in, and I am uninstalling this game. It’s not that I dislike the game; I get a lot of enjoyment out of it that I haven’t had since the last mobile game I sank years into (Brave Frontier.) I love the music, and I feel the artwork is solid. But the game has…

Etrian Odyssey V
I have very limited time, so I haven’t been able to sink the time into this that I would like. However, I’ve finally made it to the third Stratum, which means Masteries are unlocked.

Is It Too Late For New Game Plus?
I have started a new job as a factory worker for an aluminum die plant. It is long hours for average pay but the overtime works out to me working two jobs and this job gives me a chance to prove I can do something different. A lack of sleep is now an even greater problem. I worry for my children’s safety. Especially in the mornings when I drive them with me. These kids aren’t old enough to trust to be on their own either. The truth is I am exhausted all the time and it is a miracle I can even function. I am a god damned wizard on…

I really need to do more writing. I don’t feel I’m horrible at it, in and of itself, but it’s a skill that requires constant working.

These particular videos take almost no effort to do, but the first one inexplicably gained 300 views in two days, so I figured a follow up might be in order. I should really challenge myself by creating more engaging content.

I am going to be sharing things I have written on here, fiction and nonfiction. I’ve already shared blog posts I’ve written, but there’s much more I can, and should, write.

You see your stats and you’re surprised to see you have an exceptionally high skill you didn’t realize you were good at. You test yourself to see if the computer is accurate. It is.".
