Aloalo completed!

We completed all twelve endings for Aloalo Island!

This dungeon has been a lot of fun. I really liked the caterpillar mechanic on the middle path when going up the tree, and got a nasty surprise when we tried to trigger it without killing the treant first. Plus its gorgeous! All of the scenery was just breathtaking.

I really really like Statice. I think she’s cute and fun, and while her pranks can be a little nasty, she isn’t malicious. I think she appreciates that I appreciate her, after all, she gave me a whoopie cushion for my house.

We even got another Uolosapa pet, so that of course immediately went to Mikey. Now we both have birds! And of course we got the emote too since we had boatloads of potsherds.

The epilogue quest was nice and satisfying too. Get wrecked idiots.

A blue and white haired lalafell is lying on the ground, his face in a grimace. He has a dialogue box that shows his name as Zozone. He says: I said Oooooow.




Fall Guys Collab


Didn’t do much of this one this week, but I did get the orchestrion, two of the framers kits, and the pink bean pet!

Armorer Relic Complete!

It’s Hammer Time!





Cursed Monastery


Got my favorite raid, Orbonne Monastary, while doing roulettes with Magris. We ended up with a group that wiped twice, once at TG Cid and once during Ultima’s phase transition. Sadly I am allergic to actually taking screenshots in content, but you gotta trust me it was bad. Conversation was good though, had some pretty cool people!

Even if the healer kept disconnecting and dying horribly.




That's all Folks! See you next week!
