So how was your Day One?

[Nalien]

I mostly sat in the Gold Saucer >_>

Did a run of Diadem and Void Ark before bed though, got to say I really like them. Diadem is something I've wanted in this game for a loooooooooooong time, kicking myself for not sending Airships off on new Voyages before the update though, since it seems you need to find the Hard location with them first... Still, Diadem is well worth loosing out on Copperbell Mines (Extreme) and certainly makes up for a fairly small update.

Spent a lot of time on Lord of Verminion though, really enjoyed that a lot, especially some of the challenges, love the nods to other content in there. The winner of this update though? Well, second place, being able to purchase specific amounts of Coke from Grand Companies at long last definitely comes first... Second place though? The Gold Saucer Challenge Log. Those rewards got me racing again, and I forgot how much I enjoyed Chocobo Racing (and disliked certain GATEs...). Hope they don't forget about it completely, it certainly needs some adjustments, and new maps wouldn't go amiss (I think the housing wards would make great circuits).

Oh, gathered some Pearl Sprout and Coerthan Tea Seeds and am attempting to cross breed them as well. Must get Blood Pepper Seeds. Must make Ifrit minion. Did some random house tweaking as well, like having my retainers pose and enjoying the fact that my Chocobo is no longer a lifeless bastard.

Fourth, Room brightness is awesome!

This disappointed me

Then again, I'm probably not using it right... I have a light stuck in a partition that I want to remove (it's casting horrible shadows), but turning it off makes the room pitch black, despite several light sources... Maybe when they/if they increase the amount of furniture we can place I can just fix the issue with dozens of wall lights, but until then... Meh...

Hope they change it so you can have different settings for different floors at some point too...
