Monthly Update - March 2025
Hey all! Welcome to my monthly update covering my Let's Plays and other projects, cross-posted to my personal blog and to my Patreon. Read on to see what I've been up to!
Let's Plays
First up is the progress on my Let's Plays which are posted to YouTube and Patreon.
Mega Man Legends 2
The finale of Mega Man Legends 2 has been recorded and will release April 18th! Look forward to it! I ended up doing a stream of the last round of money grinding I did to help prepare for the finale. I did not end up going for a perfect 100%, but the things I skipped... I think any reasonable person would not consider part of 100% anyways.
Final Fantasy XIV
Heavensward had a few delays in the first third, so the episode that released Sunday unfortunately came after patch 7.2 rather than before it. A shame, but oh well.
I've begun work on the middle third of the expansion at this point as we arrive in the fourth major zone. I elected to wait for patch 7.2 before working on the middle third in anticipation of the graphics updates. This was very worth it, the new updates look stunning!
Main story will continue to be slow as we move into the middle third as I continue to have an enormous pile of job quests to get through. I've got ideas for how to make this situation less severe for Stormblood, but the issue will be non-existent for Shadowbringers onwards due to changes in how job quests are done by the game.
LP #018
Let's Play #018 has been decided by Patrons, and I will begin recording it... today! All I'll say for now is it's an indie RPG made almost entirely by a single person. I'm very impressed, but also have many thoughts! Soon, y'all will get to see it as well!
Twitch Streams
Next up is what I'm doing on Twitch!
Final Fantasy XIV - EX MINE Grind
We've elected to retire the MINE grind for a bit as our team needs a bit more experience and practice before we can clear Titan EX.
Saturday Game Night
Every Saturday at 4:30pm US Pacific/7:30pm US Eastern I'm streaming a variety of games!
Last month we finished Return of the Obra Dinn and had a one-off stream of Mega Man Legends 2 to grind out zenny for the Let's Play. After that, we started Xenoblade X Definitive Edition! As of this writing, we have surveyed 8.68% of Mira and completed chapter 3.
Xenoblade X shall continue for the foreseeable future! If it runs long (which I expect), then I will likely take a break around the half way point to play a shorter game as a break.
Other Projects
Next up are miscellaneous other projects I'm working on!
The Blog
Hahahahahah. This blog is so neglected. I am so sorry. I swear I'm trying.
Game Development
Unfortunately, no real progress was made on the game this month. I'm trying to get back to it, but it's ending up a rather low priority project for me. Same update as last month effectively.
The Good News
I got a job!!!!! 18 months of unemployment are at an end!!!!!
Orientation is this Wednesday. Wish me luck! I'm so excited to finally have income! And the best part? This will forcibly break my FFXIV addiction. And I will get regular active exercise on the job. This is nothing but Ws for me.
Coming Up
Heavensward will wrap up the first third of the story and move into the middle third!
Mega Man Legends 2 wraps up!
LP #018 begins production and may begin releasing on YouTube this month!
Weekly gaming streams continue on Saturdays at 4:30pm US Pacific/7:30pm US Eastern!
I HAVE A JOB!!!
