  • On a brief hiatus from Final Fantasy until FF6 begins streaming on 4/18, Vry decides to try out Storyteller and build a museum in the Skyrim: Legacy of the Dragonborn mod.

  • This post was originally a script for a first attempt at a short video essay that would potentially be the start of a series. However, due to vacation followed by over a week of sickness that completely has destroyed my voice for the time being and thus has kept me from both recording this AND…

  • The much awaited Story Summary for Endwalker has begun. Like with Shadowbringers, the main story questline of Endwalker is divided into chapters focused on clear breaks on the narrative (usually returning to your expansion specific inn room). Chapter One covering the start of the expansion all the way to the victory at the Tower of…
