FFXIV Boo Hiss
September 8th, 2010 by Ravven
I won’t post what everyone else in the beta has already posted. I’ll just say…Meh. Oh, it’s very pretty. The intro sequences are gorgeous. And then it all falls apart. No quest givers? You mean I have to run around the city talking to literally everyone to find quests? I finally got quests. Supposedly they [...]
home sweet home

BT is quite arbitrary on when they’ll allow connections to things like WordPress. It [...]
Fallen Earth
December 20th, 2009 by Ravven
I admit I’m struggling a bit with Fallen Earth. The tutorial was very well done, and I loved it. But when I got out into the world, I was lost. Not literally, since I was barely out of the starting area. But lost in the sense of not being able to figure out the game [...]
