Trails through Daybreak II finally got it's English localised release on 14th February 2025 and since then I have been all consumed by the latest installment of the trails series. I'll be honest and say this was far from my favourite game of the series but I enjoyed the experience nonetheless. There will be spoilers in this post, but I'll try and stay relatively on topic. It took me 86 hours and 3 playthroughs to get the PS5 platinum trophy for Trails through Daybreak 2. I play ... Read more

FFXIV UWU - The Weapon's Refrain Ultima Weapon has been cleared by your local Lizard Lady. I did it! I cleared an ultimate raid in Final Fantasy XIV and I am feeling pretty damn proud of myself. It may not be the current or even a recent FFXIV Ultimate but it's still an Ultimate.

I am super grateful for the team that had me join them and come along ... Read more
