Righttttttt ~ watching the levels go VROOOOOOOOOOM  Today I was doing herblore and I went from 1000 total level to 1025 total level in a matter of minutes and I was like welp that is something I could never do on my main lol 

Other than that I've been playing FFX today and just relaxing. It's been awhile since I played it and it's always nice to go back to it. Gives me a really nice nostalgic feeling since it's a game I played a lot as a kid. 

It's very fun when you can level when it starts to be days and days to get to 1 level it starts to become very boring and tiresome. Maxing is a difficult road which is why it takes a lot of people 4 years to accomplish. Even then you aren't near done with the game

Today I played Super Mario again on my Nintendo Classic and played online the Pokemon MMO game PokeMMO. I don't feel I ever progress far in the PokeMMO game no matter how often I play this.

Played RS, finished 2 quests on my new alt - Temple of the eye & Enter the abyss. Now I can get into a mini-game called guardians of the rift and level the Runecrafting skill in a more manageable way because Runecrafting is one of the slowest and most boring skills on the game x.x 

[Zeref]

I am playing OSRS right now. I'm doing a mini game called Tempoross with @Sakura which is for fishing XP. Later I'm planning to play Wakfu as I haven't been on it in a few weeks. 

[Sakura]

What he said ^ Lol ~ I have been doing a fishing mini-game on OSRS this evening on my alt account getting the fishy level up but also trying to get a pet drop from it. Also been doing another mini-game called Guardians of the Rift for the Runecrafting skill.

i helped my cousin finish a level in donkey kong country on the snes since she was stuck. Now that this is done, she is stuck on the next level so i will have to go help her again next time i come visit with family lol

I played Wakfu today, this is mostly all I did today. I got a level on my Enripsa, then 2 levels on my Iop. After that I played FIFA for awhile, got another player I wanted. Then I played San Andreas. When I play this game all I do is drive around and try to get wanted levels and run from the cops, I never progress the story line, but I find this to be more fun 

[Sakura]

I've been doing this Guardians of the Rift mini-game on RS still, I got my alt accounts Runecrafting to 55 though which is what I wanted for now, so I'm moving on to getting level 50 cooking and level 50 crafting on it now. I could probably get those both tonight but I don't know if I'll do that. I think I might just go to bed since it's getting late and I don't feel all that great. If not, that's definitely the gaming plan for tomorrow.

Revisited "vintage story", a game similar to Minecraft.  Crafting is one of the things I like to do in games and I like the way you actually have to craft things in VS.  Some people might think it tedious but IMHO Minecraft's way of building everything with a crafting table is a bit boring.  I like the way VS involves the player a bit more.  The "tech tree" progression is also better than minecraft's.  The interaction with the environment is a bit more dynamic as well, both directly with the player and indirectly with the things you build.  The temporal storms and "stability" spice things up a bit, and some of the placed dungeon areas are pretty cool.  Much better than Minecraft's strongholds anyway. 

I tried VS a little a while back but I had server stability problems so I dropped it and haven't tried it for a while but people say it is much better now so I thought I'd give it another look.  Now that my brother is no longer running his minecraft server I might even try getting VS going as a replacement.

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. 

[Sakura]

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. 

[Zeref]

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. 

[efaardvark]

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. 

[EnviousEnvy]

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. 

[Zeref]

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
