Walking On

2 min read

Hullo all! Journal post time. In the intervening months things have come and gone. My fanfics are still in limbo. I’m going to have to put up a proper notice announcing hiatus status. It’s not the end a podcast I follow Overly Sarcastic Productions said any art project you put down you can pick up again someday so eventually I’ll start doing stuff again or so I’d like to think.

I’ll still be around on DeviantArt I am now the main admin of my Pokemon Mystery Dungeon group. Though I did decide to close down the Log Horizon Fans group because of reasons. Kinda learned a lesson from that.

I’ll also still be around on Ao3 and other places.

Past that my return to school is set for February which is a thing that assuming all goes well, I’ll be graduating with my AA. Which is something.

Books and webcomic enjoyment have come and gone. Genshin Impact has gripped me rather thoroughly and I got the main character I really want from the Teyvat trailer: Cyno. I will need to return to Final Fantasy 14 at some point. Still need to get a PS5. I did get Pokemon Scarlet and it was something but I enjoyed it well enough the end credit song was what surprised me most.

Though on the topic of Pokemon. After so long Ash will retire as main character it’s kinda hard to imagine. TemTem’s in limbo. I’m eyeing other games too.

I have a bunch of tabletop rpg talk and podcast stuff to info dump but I think I’m gonna do that a separate post for Pillowfort alone and will link it here later.

I’ve been catching up on podcasts not so much on shows though so yeah. That’s everything for now. As always I’ll be in touch.

My twitter is no more, both my personal and podcast version. For obvious reasons. If I get something new I'll let you all know.

So Many Things

4 min read

Oh, sweet mercy it’s been well over 4 moths since my last journal post and there is so much to go over. First off sorry for the somewhat-silence (I have been minding the DA groups I admin somewhat) tabletop role playing games have consumed me whole. That and my podcasting. I’ve been posting the episodes here as I finish them and I have done some more work with the DungeonsN’Pop podcast which is nice. What’s also nice is me getting to start projects I’ve really been looking forward to doing. I’ve done some more crowdfunding things on Kickstarter and Indiegogo which have been neat experiences.


And on to the more general topics. Ni No Kuni: Cross World, a game in said series hit the global state somewhat recently and since I’d been following the foreign language YouTube channel because it looks neat, I was excited. And then I saw the global website had some sort of message about blockchain and that was a big no for me. Which was disappointing. On the global stage another game I’d been eyeing hit. Twisted Wonderland! I downloaded the app and got some playing done. Certain aspects of it are annoying but the main thing that stopped me was the fact my poor tablet only has so much space and capability so that’s an upgrade I’ll need to do sometime in the future. I’m also happy as recently I was able to transfer the progress I’ve made on Genshin Impact playing via PC and I was able to take that over to my PS4 so I can play it on there and I am so happy! Certain aspects get to me but I am enjoying the story and art though maybe it’s just the lover of magic circles in me talking. The anniversary for the Kingdom Hearts series hit and the trailer look promising though I’m reluctant to get into Missing Link after Union Cross ended. Side note I need to get a PS5 at some point oh joy! TemTem, I beat the current main game but in doing so I drained most of my resources in the process that and a few more issues made me decide to do a new game run and it goes.


Which brings me to some other things. The Dragon Prince season 4 has been announced or at least a special to explain a certain mystery ; ) so that’s neat. Miraculous Ladybug season 4 ended which oof that finale. I’ve seen the teaser trailer for season 5 and wow! I may not like their writing but my goodness ZAG has cool ideas with superpowers and tech. On that note I still need to watch Ghost Force never mind finish Zak Storm which I can’t do since it was taken off Netflix which brings me to my next brief topic. Netflix apparently they delete your account after a set number of months which goodbye my lists and history and progress, UGH! Circling back to finishing things. Amphibia was magnificent! I need to catch up on The Owl House.


I’ve been enjoying and not enjoying various books, comics, and webcomics though a lot of webcomics kind of force the app on you which can be annoying.


And on to the final topics I am making preparations to go back to college. Nervous as heck because of the hellscape that is the world but it’s been too long so here we go. As for my art projects I meant what I said I will get them done eventually it’s just depression and anxiety are a pain, they always have been for me but I’m managing and OK as can be. I’ll be in touch.

Podcast Matters

2 min read

So, here’s my podcast stuff I said I would do in a recent blog/journal post. First, I finally launched my own podcast feed which serves as the VOD/backlog for all the streams we’ve done on Twitch while I search for an alternative to YouTube. Anyways the podcast is called Many Stories Many Games because for all I only do D&D right now I do want to do other games eventually. Right now, we run Cities of Myth Fallen Camelot by RealmWarp Media and Humblewood by Hit Point Press. We are using Anchor for distribution so we are also on Spotify and PocketCasts currently. For releases I am aiming at 2 episodes a month and new episodes will be released on the Sundays when we aren't streaming over on Twitch!


Here are episodes in order:


The Podcast Introduction

https://anchor.fm/crests-games/episodes/Many-Stories-Many-Games-Introduction-e1btllk


Choices Prologue

https://anchor.fm/crests-games/episodes/Choices-Prologue-e1btloa


Choices Episode 01

https://anchor.fm/crests-games/episodes/Choices-Episode-01-e1btm1k


Humblewood Mini-Series Part 01

https://anchor.fm/crests-games/episodes/Humblewood-Mini-Series-Part-01-e1cnnud


And here is the Twitter you can follow us from: https://twitter.com/manystorgapod

On another note, for those who follow me you may know that I have starred on another podcast called Dungeons'N'Pop but for those who don’t it is a tabletop variety show, one of the series they do is called Adventurers with Attitude a DnD 5e campaign using materials from The Retroverse: Lasers & Liches setting which I am so looking forward to getting. Some time ago I got to play an NPC and also will be playing the GM for some of their one-shots for non-D&D systems. I’ve also joined in on a new thing of theirs which you will see eventually and as a result I am now a full cast member over there so you can find their Twitter here: https://twitter.com/DungeonsPop


Just a reminder I am still looking for players for another mini-series I wanna do more info here: https://www.pillowfort.social/posts/2286318


And that’s everything for now. I’ll share more things as we go along.
