Finally getting around to the Dawntrail Hildibrand quests.

Chronically ill girlies, new treatment for brain fog has dropped!

Screenshot of Nashu from FFXIV during the Dawntrail Hildibrand quests saying "Its really quite simple, Inspector Hildibrand was sucked up by Mister PuPu's malfunctioning starship, after which it proceeded to drag him thousands of malms away and deposit him here. Ergo, you need to let me pass so I can blow away his brain cobwebs!"

Okay but that balsamic glaze on vanilla ice cream idea is something I have to try (and I agree, balsamic glaze is soooo good)

You jinxed your team. Last I looked, Toronto was up 6-1. Wtf.

I absolutely love that Steiner is just a huge Vivi fanboy

Playing more FF9. I love how aside from Dagger, Steiner just generally dislikes everyone in the party EXCEPT Vivi. Because you're a fucking monster if you hate Vivi XD

This is every run of the Praetorium in FFXIV🤣 The Warrior of Light hates ICE.

(Seriously though the Portland Frog is a hero)

For me, “and I ‘ate the mess he left on the floor” is probably it.

But I’m married to someone who is comprised of about 70% Simpsons quotes, so there’s A LOT

what's the stupidest/randomest Simpsons quote that lives in your head rent free? Mine is the urge to say "you said go to bread" every time I am about to head to bed.

Always weird when people I follow for two completely separate reasons know each other.

Also weird to see this on the 20th anniversary of when @stephaniemiller.bsky.social wished me a happy 16th birthday (cause we share a bday lol)

I do appreciate that Dunkin Donuts is the anti-Squeenix and likes me so much that they give me a free coffee on my birthday (and absolutely not because my birthday also falls on “National Coffee Day”)

….i love you

See, I know that song as Kirby’s theme from Kirby’s Dream Land on Gameboy, so I was just gonna write “Kirby’s Theme” but Scott then pointed out he knows Kirby’s theme to be a different song. So I had to specify, but I’m too wordy for Bsky’s character limit 😭

So @thekindlyones.bsky.social and I just realized Not Alone from FF9 starts the same way as Kirby’s theme from Super Smash Bros

Then I had to listen to Not Alone cause Kirby was now stuck in my head

Then Scott started playing Kirby’s theme on full blast while I tried to, because he’s a jerk 😂

DAMN!!! That’s amazing!!! I’m more proud of you than I can put in words!!!

Xela @xela929.bsky.social · Sep 13

But seriously, I adored this game. I'm honestly thinking I might start streaming all the (numbered) Final Fantasy games, starting with FF1.

Its obvious that Squeenix is gearing up to make a remake of 9. All I ask is that they don't change the core storyline of this game. I don't want this to be FF7R.

What I DO want is for them to expand on some subplots, and give us more of a feel of the world.

And change the gameplay entirely lmao

The gameplay is horrendous. I would not have enjoyed this game as much if it weren't for the memoria mod I found. It makes it much more playable.

I loved the characters, I loved the story, I just wish that we got a bit more world building. I don't need a ton, just a little more. There were a few plot points (Freya and Sir Fratley, Vivi's grandfather, etc) that I felt like should have had more to it.
