Rift although it's becoming boring fast now that my old guild is essentially in ruins.

Recettear, which is entirely too entertaining for its own good.

The Cave, which is black humour done so very well.

About to stop whining and drop everything to get back to my fanfiction though. Ideas keep popping into my head after an extended drought.

I pretty much play and beat Ghostbusters: The Game at least once a month.

Lately I've been playing a lot of XCOM: Enemy Unknown with my free time (when I haven't been able to play FFXIV). However, that'll probably change next week with Kingdom Hearts HD, and then the following week with Grand Theft Auto V.

I've recently decided to go back to a bit of GW2 while I wait for digital downloads to become available (because I don't want to risk buying a hard copy for extra money and not being able to play anyway). So is there anyone who's playing on Tarnished Coast by chance?

Relevant again with the maintenance going on just when I'm able to sign back in!

I've let myself get drawn back into Kingdom Hearts with the HD Remix having come out here recently. It's proving quite an experience; this is the first time I've played it in about a decade, and with the revamped visuals it really feels like a brand new game. 

Not to mention one of the best openings ever to grace a video game:

Ah for me, it's mainly been the big two that gobble up every little bit of my time, those two being..

I also have dedicated characters in Rift, on Faeblight. I logged in last night during the down time on FFXIV and was immediately assaulted by an instant adventure I didn't choose to join smack in the middle of Meridian. I was not amused. 

I love my Faeblight community and the game itself is still fun but I really really hope that the cities are not continually assaulted in that way. It makes crafting very challenging :/

Too many games, too little time D: Though I have more time since my internet decides it doesn't like FFXIV combat for some reason. Basically, until I get a hardwired connection for my PS3, I'm stuck either gathering and crafting and you can see how that might get a tad boring after a bit ^^;

Luckily, I have been biding my time with a bit of streaming and such. Usually playing just fun games xD Hatsune Miku: Project Diva F, One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2(I played it all yesterday for Talk like a Pirate day. YAR MATEYS!), Final Fantasy XIII (^^; ), Rogue Legacy, and other games. I have a massive backlog of handheld games I really need to finish, and with Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies finally having a release date, I really need to get on those xD

That was part of the 2.4 world event, and you'll be happy to know that it was bugged. The mobs were not supposed to be level 63; they were supposed to be scaled in some manner. Trion did a server announcement about an hour and a half into the whole thing that they were taking it down until they could fix it.

That said, I hope they return it soon, because I have always adored Trion's handling of world events. ^^ They always make me feel like I'm really a part of something huge.

Incidentally, I'm still playing Rift quite frequently, especially during the day. If you're ever online, you should friend Naunet and Ravni, my two primary characters!

Skyrim continues to suck away most of my gaming time when I'm not playing FFXIV, since I promised myself I'd replay it and make notes to help forge a solid character concept for when TESO launches. I'll likely play both, but between FFXIV and TESO I'll be spoiled for choice since both are very much to my tastes. I'll be replaying Oblivion when I'm done with Skyrim. I also dabble in Dishonored from time to time as it's a very intriguing game in my eyes. I love the atmosphere.

Some one else playing Project Diva? marvelous!

I'm mostly playing Europa Universalis 4, or working through alternate routes in old visual novels. was playing Fire Emblem FE, but wrapped that up pretty recently. Oh, and the latest Harvest Moon for the 3ds has been keeping me entertained while wandering through the day.

Well, it's not GAMES lately, but e-books.

That being said, if I let a game eat my brain these days it's likely to be X-Com: Enemy Unknown for right now. That might change to Borderlands 2 depending on brainpower, but we'll see.
