Now I'll be joining a friend for criterion dungeons I have to be active in the game again.
That makes it harder to decide the best times to grind and the best times to play something else.

Exactly why I hate committing to play with others, and many grindfest games in general. Sometimes I don't want to grind when it's the best time to, and often times I just want to play something else or nothing at all. The sad part is that I actually quite like games like that, such as Warframe, Lost Ark, etc. when I want to grind. Even in FFXIV, I can get pretty deeply involved in grinds when I am in the mood or want something, like with Bozja.

This is part of why I only commit to 1 MMO at a time.

Depending on how deeply involved I have to get, I typically play FFXIV at the same time since this game isn't usually too bad about it. Bozja really got me last year, due to FOMO. But I don't really regularly play other MMOs. I drop in for like a month, then stop playing for a year or more. This is the only one I play regularly.

Lol, barely scraped in motivation to log into FFXIV and do a Praetorium and buy the 50 Moogle Tomestone minion. Don't know why but my want to play has plummeted down. To think I brought multiple Jobs to 90 until only a couple weeks prior.

Now I'm just studying some courses until the 19th. Hope I can play a carp ton of PoE for a week.

Yeah, that's how it can be when grinding out classes. I don't personally have any motiviation currently to play the game either, it's why I am typically AFK if I am online. I do an Orbonne, or alliance raid roulette on occasion hoping I'll get a raid that will give me moogle tokens. Without the moogle event, I probably wouldn't log in at all until the next patch, and even then I'll probably grind out the PvP rewards and be done with it. Considering I still haven't bothered to do the story yet. Not really excited at all about Island Sanctuary either.

Frankly, even getting the classes I have leveled to 90 right now were too much. I could probably do without having ever grabbed reaper or sage (the little I have leveled of sage), to be honest.

I downloaded Path of Exile again, after quite awhile, since I read this league was out today (?). The game seems to look better at least. I think there is a class you can unlock if you get far enough in the story, so I might try and do that. We'll see if I can actually get into playing it.

Just really need something to do while killing time until the next patch and other things.

One thing though, I was deleting old characters, and I accidentally deleted some old character of mine that I had been keeping. I can't exactly even remember why I never deleted that one, but I contacted their support email, and I am literally saying within 6 minutes they got back to me and restored that character. 6 minutes. I was amazed.

Also, my character is witch* again for this league that I know nothing about. Old habits.

I can't. I literally get tired playing the game, and I don't even have ASMR on in the background. I don't know what it is about it. I guess it'd be good as a sleep aid.

Yeah forget Surge I would love to see Crystal Pepsi make a comeback. They were in my school's coke machine for like a year and then disappeared off the face of the earth.

Not complaining cause I love them but it always baffles me that I can still get the ultimate hood convenient store coke Red Pop Faygo but can't get a Crystal Pepsi.

Finished Xenoblade Chronicles 3's main story yesterday and... I can see why the community has been unhappy with the antagonist now. The writing of the villains are some of the weakest in the series, and probably all the Xeno games.
Honestly, Egil and Malos were way better antagonists. At the same time I really loved the protagonist team this time, so it kind of balances it out. I just wish the bad guys' MO didn't feel like it didn't belong in a Xenoblade Chronicles game...

I hope the DLC story is good. I'll do the quests that I'm missing and just wait for the season pass content to come out. Monolith Soft did a banger job with the gameplay and quest writing though.
