The ice is out on Joe's Pond! Yaaay, it really is finally spring! (I guess it happened last night, and possibly it was more washed out than anything, but, woohoo.) (... hahaha, oh, god, my state is so ridiculous.)

30 Days of Video Games


Day 19 - Picture of a game setting you wish you lived in.



Though, I am not sure if by setting they mean an exact location or just a video game in general? I wouldn't want to live in Lufaise Meadows (though I suppose I'd be okay with the Tavnazian Safehold, or really any town aside from Bastok please not there), and I have other, prettier shots of Vana'diel in general (see some of the below!), but that's, like, THE FFXI shot. The place we all wanted to see and, once we finally could, the screenshot we all took. (This is an old shot, from way back in 2005. This one is a bit more recent.)

BUT YEAH! Vana'diel! Whoo!



















































But, do I really want to live in a world with the endlessly unsettling Promyvion, and with Abyssea and the past and everything all knocking on our reality's walls? (Just... just don't ask me to enter any of them. holyshit promyvion, you are the stuff of nightmares.)










….yes, apparently.


I'd probably be dead by the end of the week, but I don't even care.









aaaaaa









Day off tomorrow. Place bets now: will I or will I not do anything remotely productive? (Getting out of bed will not count.)

Edit:
EXCITING! The next edition of the FINAL FANTASY XI Ultimate Collection will have the three Abyssea add-ons! Yay, May 16^th! (Six days after the server merges and version update finally happen, whee.) And then we can all have a Prishe statue. XD

jooooiiin uuuuuus and you'll get a cute hat

Yeah, but you were on a ledge and they were down in the pit below you. They shouldn't have seen you. How did you mess that one up?

[hisi-mehlota.livejournal.com]

The world will never know.

WHAT AN ASTONISHING SURPRISE YOUR ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION IS. I AM ASTOUNDED.

These screenshots are lovely! (...well, apart from those ones of that place with the black sky and the five-legged bonespider augh what the hell that's terrifying.)

[twilit-wanderer.livejournal.com]

I KNOW, MAN, OUT OF FREAKING NOWHERE, THIS CHOICE.

Promyvion is just, augh, augh, augh (though the fifth one is actually a tail, not a leg). Also, it is not that the sky is black, it is that there is only nothing (only not even really exactly nothing, either) all around you. EMPTINESS. Keep it awaaaaay. D: I could ramble nonsensically for hours about how Promyvion creeps me right the hell out, but I have yet to get around to writing that entry, somehow.

FFXI <--- NOT SURPRISED

but

"I'd probably be dead by the end of the week, but I don't even care." <-- THIS XD

[twilit-wanderer.livejournal.com]

I am (NOT REMOTELY) surprised that no one is surprised by this answer!


(I'd probably not be dead from MASSIVE TONBERRY SWARM, at least? XD)
