Side Quests... They Can Be Interesting

Good morning everyone

Last night's stream of Final Fantasy XIV focused on side questing in the areas known as Amh Araeng and Il Mheg, where we got nearly all of them done, and we would've cleared every one but I was heavily distracted by keeping an eye on Game 5 of the World Series (more on that later). Perhaps the real big highlight was completing the sub-stories that link major towns in those areas together. and it does reveal that I started some of those plot lines way back during my initial push through the Main Story Quest.

We also put in some quick level grinding on Carpentry, getting up to level 40, so I have access to the both the level 35 and level 40 skill quests. The big push for why I want to get Carpentry leveled up as quickly as possible is because there one side quest in Kholusia that requires the Carpentry skill to be at level 70.

So next time we feature Final Fantasy XIV next week, we got the two Carpentry skill quests to do and it's back to Il Mheg to clear out the remaining side quests in that area,

Work yesterday was good, but I am not thrilled with what is going to be the big assignment I'm going to be on for the probably foreseeable future. Work is work, but I do like knowing I have a chance to be productive as opposed to dreading getting nothing done.

And boy do I have thoughts on the Phillies 3-2 lost to the Astros... I said it yesterday, the Phillies had to win last night, and they blew it offensively. They had the bases loaded early in the game and failed to capitalize, and had numerous opportunities and failed repeatedly. Watching it out of the corner of my eye certainly had my fully distracted and disgusted. And now they are going into Houston on Saturday, needing to win two games. Larry Bowa predicted the Phillies would win in seven games... well, they have no choice, they have to win on Saturday and Sunday.

Song of the Day: I’ll Be There by Jess Glynne

I'm maybe 70% finished writing the WWE short story that was commissioned recently. Depending on how long I go with tonight' stream I might finish it before going to bed, but I know for sure it'll be done by tomorrow night.

And speaking about tonight's stream, we're starting up Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight, so you know we'll be going for achievements as quickly as possible. We'll use the same approach as with Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight, going for ranking up all the social bonds to get some of the various perks unlocked.

So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
