Happy Birthday! <3 <3

Lol, Im good, hope you too friend. Pandemic is getting bad at my country, and my depression is bad also due to my chronic ongoing tailbone pain for 3 years now, and other issues as well, its hard for me to sit and practice piano, so I limit to 2 hours practice a day 2 sessions. I recall you like Ogre Battle and perhaps strategy games like FFT too, so I invited you to that Roleplay club I made Lol, sorry for the sudden. Hows everything on your end?

Yup. Feel free to refocus or reset the conversation to your liking! I'm just doing my thing as usual with anime, PS4 games, and occasional motorcycling. It's hard to believe to this day I haven't read a chapter of any manga or tried any VN. But I do know about losing one's self altogether!

Woah. I'm in the midst of what is the longest drought with anime since I started watching fully back in 2011. All thanks to CTR and NFS on the PS4! And being a bum too...

Anyway, sorry about the late response. The Patriots aren't looking so great, even if they did beat my team and put a big dent into their postseason hopes. I don't think the Eagles deserve a spot in the postseason anyway because of their injuries and the QB Wentz not playing to his potential.

That explains it. Collecting stuff can get pretty crazy, as I know that from experience as a Yugioh player for many, many years. And yes, Western ones don't really suit my tastes too because of my strong anime and Japan biases. I hope another NieR game does come out soon as Automata was still one of the best games I've played on a console.

Shoot. I would think Europe has those two handily beat, but in saying that I'd be overlooking a lot of the potential for both areas. Countrysides would be great for both scenery and illegal activity! haha

Nice! Well, I guess we'll both strike the right balance with our finances eventually. I'd like to spend it all myself more often than not, but life throws some pretty wicked curveballs at you when you least expect it and especially welcome it. And yes, DSLR cameras can do a lot. But still they require some skill and finesse to get the most out of them, particularly with manipulating light and darkness.

Btw, if you have WhatsApp that might be better for communicating. Lmk! MAL is unfortunately well past its prime in my book, but at least the good old days of "clubbing" and watching too much damn anime were fun!

Was an interesting year for sports franchises. The Raptors got their first NBA title, the Nationals their first WS, and I think Liverpool their first Champions League title. But yeah, always great to break that "legacy of failure" cycle.

I'm the opposite in staying away from many games because of that fear of time sinking or being so worried about time constraints. Sounds like a lot to get to and a lot for Atelier fans! So that's the main genre you specialize in with games?

Drive or ride. It's one of the things I value being single for, even if being single sometimes involves feeling lonely or confined. It would be even more crazy living in the mainland USA or some other large continent! I'm not sure I'd even come home on some days.

Shoot. I dunno now whether to take what you say at face value or just laugh it off. You must be hella skilled at that! Oh, and the anime I'm referring to is Tamayura: More aggressive and, in particular, this character.

Back in January I looked at their record and thought it just wasn't meant to be that season. But then they started winning some games and the hype with Jordan Binnington became more and more real. It's funny because the whole run is tied to my NFL team the Eagles, since the Blues were playing the Flyers that weekend and watched that Eagles-Bears game at a Philadelphia bar. Anyway, times have certainly changed from when the Blackhawks and Kings were basically alternating the raising of the Cup. I guess money and contract issues caught up to both of them? Don't worry. There will be a time when both my teams are bottom feeders and I get to cry (sarcastically) over it. But I hope not anytime soon! I'm just glad the Blues got one since they were as cursed as they come in the NHL prior to then.

That's quite a few full plates! Shoot. I really like how those games look and also the character designs, but I'm too set on playing action-based RPGs. How many games are in that Atelier series anyway? And how many have been adapted into anime besides that Escha & Logy one from like ages ago? Are you bigger on the turn-based stuff, then?

On my end, I still play that racing game (Assetto Corsa) that I bought my racing chassis and setup for time to time. In 2017, I upgraded the wheel-pedal-shifter set from Thrustmaster hardware to Fanatec. And before that I even bought the PSVR for fun, which was a waste of money in my book until games like Wipeout and Beat Saber became available. Beat Saber is probably the smoothest game I've played in VR to date and a great successor or option among all the great rhythm music games out there like Beatmania, DDR, Guitar Hero, etc. The main game I'm playing now is the new Crash Team Racing (since mid-June), which will soon be accompanied by NFS Heat in a few days. That will be the first NFS game I own and play in full since Undercover for the PS2 back in 2008.

As for my life, it feels like a mess outside of motorcycling tbh. But thankfully motorcycling is damn awesome and gave me a means to go fast and to explore other areas of the island. I hope to one day document my exploits with a proper GoPro setup, but that will have to wait since I had a setback with purchasing a dud of a used car from a friend. Other than that I bought a Pentax DSLR camera last year in tribute to that Tamayura sequel anime that aired back in 2013. So yeah, for better and for worse I blew a lot of money between 2017 and now especially.

Wow. The Penguins won another Cup and surprisingly the Blues (my second favorite NHL team) since the last time we chat. So what's been up with you, man? Are you going to be playing some of those upcoming action JRPG games like YS IX and Tales of Arise? There's even a chance I play that FF7 remake if it really is as action-based as it appears to be.

been a long time :)
How are you?

budddyyyyy you're the besttttt!!!!

I know you probably didn't mean "next 50 years" as in literally 50 years since 77 is already a quite old age and lots of people by then already are plagued wit health issues.

Well, yeah. I mean, obsessing over it too much can't do any good, since you'll age regardless of how you feel about it.

I don't even want to think about it.

I knew I wasn't gonna be eternally young... but it's still feels surreal. I mean, 27 is still young, sure, but I've been a legal adult for 9 years now. And in less than 3 years i'll be 30. I remember being 19 just yesterday and thinking I was gonna be 30 in 11 years... what I wouldn't give to be 19 again.

Feels a bit different for me. I have changed a bit in the last 5 years. Looking back, I was still a kid at the time. And people aged 22 and below look very immature to me nowadays.

Not much. Trying to cope with the fact I am now 27 years old. I was turning 22 just yesterday. Where did all the time go?

Hello.

Hahahaha Hello! Best first comment ever!
