What Did You Do In Gaming Today

[Forlorn]

I've been playing X-Men: Destiny on PS3 recently since I've been downstairs mostly as long as dad's home. I've finished the game with Adrian in both factions, finished the game with Grant in the Brotherhood faction and now I'm aiming for the X-Men ending for the big guy, next up I'll be tackling the Brotherhood faction for Aimi for the first game and the X-Men faction for the New Game+. ^^ Now it's time to get back to Tales of Vesperia though. I've made so much progress in that game it'd take a really long post to explain it all and I'm not even sure if anyone reads posts that long anymore, but there's something fishy going on in the plot that has me thinking Prince Iodor might have something to do with the nefarious things going on in the game. I'm not entirely sure about that though, just a hunch really. I'm in Nordopolica now though and Patty just left the group. I went on that one Ghost Ship by accident which was interesting, but fun, and I'm glad I leveled up the party as much as I did. lol

Playing on my ultimate iron man at lunch today and died by a troll  I got up to get my drink and came back to being dead. I didn't lose anything of value at least. Next time I will be paying more attention to how close I am standing next to monsters when I get up to do something. I also received a rare drop of dragon pickaxe today. I don't have the level to use it yet but now have motivation to do the mining to get it.

I got a lot of levels on my alt account today - 66 defense, 38 herblore, 40 smithing, 50 crafting, and 50 fletching. Going for 70 defense tomorrow.

I played on my UIM on Runescape and got to 30 construction, 30 agility, and 30 slayer. I am just for now trying to round things out to the 30's since it's fairly easy early leveling to do on a UIM. I also completed 2 quests and worked on my achievement diary. I am trying to finish all the easy levels of the achievement diaries so I can receive the initial achievement diary items. I still have a couple quests and skills to level up before I can finish all area achievements at easy level.

Still watching Vintage Story videos to catch up on modern gameplay mechanics.

[Sakura]

I played OSRS with @Zeref and did construction and herblore again today. I still really love seeing these levels go up so fast so quickly on a new account lol ~ I've mostly been training combat at the NMZ mini game because it's easier and faster to level up there, not to mention pretty AFK so I can do other things around the house and only have to go back to the screen every 10-15 minutes.

Palworld

Restarted Palword and focused on getting resources, base building, catching Pals, etc. The game however likes to crash frequently after the latest update. I quit after the last crash crashed my entire PC.

Sims 4

Got the new Lovestruck expansion but haven't really got into the gameplay due to focusing on building a mansion. Going on day 4 and still not finished lol.

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition

I restarted Tales of Vesperia because I didn't find the necessary items to make Flamberge which has the Chain Skill and can make Yuri learn the Arte Azure Storm if I use Azure Edge. Azure Edge hurls a ball of concentrated wind at an enemy to inflict damage. I think it's a Strike Arte because it's not magic. Yuri's bodhi blastia is definitely based on wind elements though. But it started to get to a point in the game I figure was about mid-story, so I just started over and, fortunately, now he has Flamberge from Synthesizing it at Deidon Hold and so has learned Azure Storm. ^^ Right now I've just encountered Karol for the first time and he's joined the party. Omg, that kid is hilarious. lol Yuri is so mean to him though like when he said he saw a monster behind Karol just to freak him out. XD Definitely a brotherly kind of bond those two have. ^^ At least what I imagine an older brother would be like to a younger brother. The point in the story I'm at now is just before the party tracks down that Eggbear in the Quoi Woods for the Panacea Bottle in Halure to get rid of the monster blood in the ground that's poisoning the Tree of Halure, effectively killing it and the Barrier Blastia that has fused with the tree over time. The Eggbear isn't much of a challenge since I love to pass the time with item farming and leveling up because of the patience I seem to have with games, though not with much else outside of friends and family. lol It's a strange paradox of patience and impatience, but I'm glad I'm patient with things in games at least. ^^ Games wouldn't be my favorite form of escapism if I wasn't so patient in them. ^^ ^^

As far as the Titles, I've chosen True Knight for Yuri, Regal Heart for Estelle, Respede for Repede, and Brave Vesperia for the bravest kid character in a game I've ever seen quite frankly: Karol. Do y'all want screenshots of these looks to see again? It wouldn't be difficult to send them to my Chromebook, so if you want me to post some, let me know~ ^^

Played OSRS on my alt again. I did about 7 quests for early levels, got about 35 total levels, and worked on defense again which is now at 70. I know the levels on this alt are going to start getting hard soon but I'm enjoying this lol. At this rate though I might end up with 2 main accounts  I'm wishing it was this weekend because I wanted to get started doing some low level bosses on this alt but I mostly want to wait until the weekend so I have plenty of time to do it.

I went back to playing my Super Mario Brothers game today. After that I also played Fifa & OSRS. On OSRS I finished to the firemaking level I want at 77 for now on my UIM. I also got to 60 woodcutting and can cut yew trees now.

 

I also discovered this nice looking place on OSRS:

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition

Ok, so, after Synthesizing a Panacea Bottle after collecting the last of the 3 items necessary for the Synthesis: the Eggbear Claw, I went back to Halure to see the anime style cutscene of Estelle bringing the Halure Tree back to life with her Healing Artes. It's pretty cool to see, and I'm always a sucker for anime style cutscenes. After she resurrected the Tree of Halure and its Barrier Blastia, the blooms on it were a stark contrast to how withered and dead the tree was prior to her resurrecting it (after they'd used the Panacea Bottle, but apparently that wasn't enough in and of itself to resurrect the Tree Barrier Blastia of Halure, although it did apparently help because the Tree had some kind of reaction that made it look like it was coming back to life, but I guess it was too far gone for the Panacea Bottle by itself to cure the tree barrier blastia). Understandably, it took a lot out of Estelle, but there wasn't much time for rest since the red-eyes members of Leviathan's Claw were lingering around in the distance, which Repede noticed and brought to Yuri's attention. In a hurry to leave the town so as to avoid getting the people of Halure caught up in their troubles, the party asked the Mayor where Aspio is and he said East, but didn't know what it looked like or where the exact location was. That's where Flynn was headed apparently. That dude's got energy to spare. o.0 So, I went to Aspio and got to where Karol picked the lock of one of the locked doors in Aspio that was out of the knights' field of vision and saved my game as soon as I could. Now I'm about to continue that game, but first I desperately need something to drink because of how much I'm sweating. ><

I've just been playing on my lil alt account on Runescape. I got him to 72 attack and finished 71 defense which also got 70 HP since HP trains up as you level strength/attack/defense/range/magic. I want to go get 50 construction which I could prolly do tonight but I think I'm too stressed to really do anything that requires attention, and construction is one of those skills that you can't be AFK doing and have to actually pay attention  I forgot how fun it was leveling everything to 50 though and I'm enjoying doing that. 

[Zeref]

I played my UIM on my lunch break and hope to get back to working on it some more this evening. I leveled crafting a few levels up and a couple of herblore levels but nothing too significant. I want to work on firemaking to 80 tonight and a few attack levels. 

[Sakura]

Actually played my main today on RS. Worked on trying to get to 96 woodcutting but I'm still 300k from it.. lol. Everything on every level is so far away on this account. Most of the levels are 800-900k XP away because of how high all my levels are x.x Getting ready to hop back on my alt account and do some quests and watch some levels actually change numbers  

[Forlorn]

I've reached Nor Harbor in Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition. I'm just battling monsters for now until I go after the Rhybgaro and get its horn while sparing its life at the same time.

[Zeref]

I am playing RS all day this morning working on UIM. I reached combat level 85 which feels a lot for being on a UIM. Working on prayer which achieved 55. Worked on HP the most which is now at 70 with the other combat stats. I need to work on strength to 70. Strength to me seems slowest to train so I never want to do it. 

[Sakura]

Mostly OSRS for the little bit of gaming I've done today. Working on construction on my alt. Decided to just go ahead and buy 84 construction so I can have the fully built house that will have everything in it that he needs for later stages of the game.

seeing you guys playing OSRS makes me wanna try it lol. seems pretty fun 

We've been playing this game together since we were little kids (10-11 years old) and so for me it's very nostalgic. I will go 6+ months sometimes without logging in and hating the game but then always come back to it  It's very nice if you play on Runelite client and use the 117 HD setting to have better graphics so this game doesn't look so bad too. It's a very social game if you like to interact with others but can also be played fine without ever interaction from another person.

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition

Now I'm at the point before the party goes to Magistrate Ragou's dungeon where he basically feeds people of the town to monsters because it entertains him(for some reason) and the last save was at the Inn. I forgot the name of the Inn, but it's the Inn in Nor Harbor just before Yuri encounters Raven again out of the blue. I swear, that dude just pops up out of nowhere sometimes. o.0

Yeah it's a pretty fun game if you don't mind not having these crazy amazing graphics because it's meant to have the 2006-2010 vibe for the people that played back then, thus why it's called "Old School Runescape". They have RS3 which is the much higher detail graphic game but it's a separate game, mostly p2w and it's awful lol 

Today I played on Neopets actually  I was just adding some things to my gallery. In an effort to get people back to the site they've been re-releasing items that are worth billions on the site that people always wanted but could never afford so people are kinda coming back to get those items they always wanted as kids lol. 

I also played a lil RS and worked on Construction and Slayer, got a few levels in each, got bored though because I didn't really feel like played today. 

[Zeref]

Since getting off work I have been playing my UIM on RS. I started doing some slayer tasks and currently assigned to kill Ice Fiends. Before that I had Moss Giants, Cockatrice, and a Fire Fiend tasks. Slayer is in my opinion the hardest skill to level on the game. They have recently released something called Slayer Partners and you can team up with a friend to complete tasks of the same monsters together. I haven't tried it yet but this is something I want to try.

Well my RS clan is basically ruined thanks to some drama that happened and most of friends left. They joined a new clan though so I guess I will also leave the clan when I get back on and join this clan but I'm kinda upset about it. I'm upset about the toxic behavior that I heard took place and someone who is a known troll picking on one of my friends who is one of the sweetest girls I know. Also really a let-down how my clan leader handled the situation which was to side with this random troll, curse everyone out, call everyone on voice chat and curse them out some more, Then proceed to get on his livestream and talk more about it.
I was just reallllyyy in love with the clan and we've all been such good friends for awhile to the point we were even all going to meet in Orlando this Winter and visit Disney World together. I suppose that is still on because everyone that was going are the ones who left the clan and made this new clan, which I guess I'm going to join as well. I'm just really disappointed in our clan leader who I thought was an amazing person and someone I even looked up to, but the way he handled this situation I don't know how to feel  It kind of makes me not even want to play the game right now.
I have been playing it today with my friends chat off though so I didn't have to deal with or think about the drama and just kind of process it. I got several levesl on my alt included 75 attack so I am happy about that at least.
