Obsessive Behavior: Side Affect of 2.0 Anticipation?

[Ingolf]

I'm in the same boat. All of my free time is devoted to XIV drooling/exploring/crying.

I'm in the same boat.. checking the forums and email daily..

I wanna do a Final Fantasy Marathon. Play every game from 1 to 13-2. All sequels and prequels included. But, I'm kinda missing everything from 7 and below, except 3, I have that on DS.

I figure by the time I beat every game in the series, ARR will be out.

So yeah...anyone wanna spot me FF1-6?

I check my e-mail and forums daily but not obsessively.

The forums is a page that opens up the minute I click my browser. Same with my e-mail . (I still get e-mails from friends... plus I shop a lot online. :O Package tracking!) I won't miss any mails about FFXIV, but I won't let it get obsessive. :3

I had this exact idea... It would be a lot of fun, but man that's a lot of games to replay! I just started Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey back up because I never beat them. It's hard to pay attention during cutscenes though when I have the ARR one on repeat on my laptop.

This is how they hook us. By the time the game comes back up, we'll have so much XIV-withdrawel that playing it (new and improved) will be like when you eat a cracker after not having eaten anything in like, three days.

Yep, this'll be us at 2.0 launch:

I don't check my mail obsessively since I'm usually notified instantly if I get anything either on the mail app on Windows 8 or on my iPhone but I do check this forum all the time and I watch the Alpha walkthroughs from time to time.

Polly want a cracker? ... Yes. Yes. Yes... And FFXI and Secret World and WoW just don't do it. I tried Skyrim, but every time I start that I go to the ESO site to see what's new there. I end up reading Lodestone and checking email. It is definitely annoying...

I've noticed that some of your time is devoted to lurking the forums and laying the smackdown on people who try to argue using flawed logic.

Or is that just a recent thing...
