Mutuals who I have hardly spoken with but we instead communicate through silently liking and reblogging each other's posts... I hope you're all having a lovely day ✨

So, my family all play the critically acclaimed mmorpg Final Fantasy XIV with free trial up to Stormblood and level 70 with no restrictions! And the dungeons in DT gave my sister seizures and we haven't been able to play since. She's still recovering. In the meantime, I have acquired Easy Eyes and I've been hammering away at the dungeons and trials of DawnTrail to make this shit actually safer for her to play. And obviously I'm finna share that hard work with all the migraineurs and epileptics that want to get through the game.

My plan is to work backwards (I started on the EW dungeons today) and get all the dungeons and trials safer. The norm and alliance raids are gonna take A While, mostly because I have to run them with people instead of the trust and there's so many more effects to sort through.

In the meantime, if you didn't know, EasyEyes is a plugin for Dalamud (ie it's a mod). You can import presets into it to block all the vfx in the preset without having to run the duty and manually block everything yourself. That's obviously not safe, hence me doing it. You can find it on xma (Safer DT Dungeons and Trials). It's a zip folder with each dungeon and trial labelled as individual presets. You just have to hit import and pick them, super easy.

Please be aware that it's super difficult to turn off vfx in the background, and I left a lot of small vfx untouched for aesthetic, but I very much took out everything glaringly obvious, or that my sister explicitly complained about, and more. Some of the vfx turned off are going to make it harder for you to position yourself to avoid attacks, so please keep that in mind, but safety trumps a healer's feelings!

I'll post each expac as I finish them and I sincerely hope more people are able to get back into the game because of my work.

Working on the presets for the Arcadion. Already have the dungeons and trials up to 7.4 with the exception of the Monster Hunter crossover and anything related to Hildibrand. Still haven't actually been able to get into Jeuno: The First Walk cuz the queue times have been outrageous even as a healer. I'll keep trying though. The arcadion raids are rough. Certainly exciting! But also it's hard to figure out what to turn off in several of them that also won't make it impossible for people to position themselves. I literally have to stress test them on my sister, because the vfx don't bother me, which sucks. That's not happening this week though, it's supposed to rain several days this week and that lowers her threshold.

Floating the idea of starting a ko-fi to support this project. It's time-consuming and it'd pay my sub so I can work on it in a more timely manner. I am glowering at Endwalker and ShadowBringers especially since I know several of those dungeons and trials are flashy. Let's not even get into the monstrosity that are the Nier raids. Idk yet though. I care more about people being able to safely play the game than money, so I'll do it regardless. Thoughts?

Reminder to anyone using my presets that they can be freely edited by you! You can view each one individually in Easy Eyes and decide to keep it turned off or turn it back on. It's a bit of a pain in the ass, but you can also capture vfx and try to turn off anything that I didn't turn off if you want. Freely customizable! Just stay safe darlings.

Everyone is comparing Pokopia to Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley and they're not wrong. But this is a GOLDEN opportunity to reintroduce the kids to Viva Pinata

i've opened a shop on acggoods!

i have a ton of kotor art there, plus gravity falls and baldur's gate. starting march 6, you'll be able to buy my past dakimakura designs there too!

this isn't meant to replace my main store, just exist alongside it for reasons i go into below:

what is acggoods? similar to redbubble, all products are print on demand, and your order is shipped directly from the manufacturer rather than from me.

why offer products here in addition to your main store? two reasons: one, orders here aren't limited by my own shipping options. so if you previously couldn't order from my main store due to my shipping options, you likely can now! two, when i buy products for my main store, i have to buy a large amount of each design, so i can only afford to offer my most popular designs. here, since everything's print on demand, i can make niche designs available that i couldn't offer on my main store.

are the products the same as what you sell on your main store? essentially yes, technically no! the art is identical, but this manufacturer is different from the one that i use for my main store, so there are minor differences in size and layering, for example. the biggest difference is that charms don't arrive assembled, you have to assemble them yourself.

have you used this manufacturer before? yes! i've ordered from this manu for my personal charms (like this shaker charm and this cutout charm).

if you have questions, feel free to send me an ask or email!

I have been learning to crochet

When people ask me how it’s going, I tell them, “Fortunately, I already did cross-stitch, so I’ve already come to terms with the fact that I can’t count”

This hits big in fiber arts circles

We all like to poke affectionate fun at Solas's first flirt line being "I'll protect you" from Lavellan. And yeah, it's pretty cute. But also, in light of Veilguard...

The guy had to deal with ass-hats for a millennia who I'm sure not even once bothered to ask him how his day was going. Solas was used at worst and ignored at best FOR. A. MILLENNIA.

Then he waged war against the ass-hats - not because he wanted to - but because someone freaking had to.

And then here comes along sweet, naive, Dalish-girl Lavellan who doesn't have a clue who she's talking to, and she promises to protect him against the ass-hats of the world.

My guy hasn't had one decent thing said to him in his entire physical existence, and she swears she'll fight the whole f*cking Chantry for him. My dude is wrecked. His soul is shattered.

And he gets away with a soft little "thank you" and just manages not to give away how deeply touched he is.

*I AM GNAWING AT THE BARS OF MY ENCLOSURE!*

[liaragaming]

I just realized her literal words to him are "You came here to help. I won't let them use that against you." Which is EXACTLY what happened when Mythal asked him to help!

And Solas's response is a casual, "How would you stop them?" Like, he's been used for a millennia! What's this little Dalish girl gonna do?

Lavella: "However, I had to."

Solas:

Fen'Harel was wrecked that day, ladies and gentlemen.

No wonder the man is f*cking thirsty. He's been deprived of affection for a thousand x a thousand years.
