Lost Whyspers

You have to assemble your life yourself, action by action. — Marcus Aurelius Chatting with Miach a bit again She was having trouble with her email Remembering TSO (The Shadow Order) guild from War of Genesis Preparing for a trip Continuing to watch Witcher season 2 Finished through episode 5 Getting quite interesting Can't concentrate much today

Miach invited me to a Discord server she created Ibeji from War of Genesis is there Signed up as backup for couple FoL games Making good progress on Project SV Apprentice returned Apologized for Fortified Tower 3 game Overwhelmed with IRL issues Foster still hasn't responded to my friend request on Discord Ups and downs with SINoALICE New guild Senate lost GC yesterday Won GC today although it had looked unwinnable Losing some members, including our leader Spinal He needs to move to another time slot due to difficulties attending with this schedule Cerpin taking over leadership Game more fun recently Hopefully guild will move forward okay Even so, I can probably find new guild easily

My friend Mia from War of Genesis has been kindly keeping in touch with me. She always expresses concern about me. She was letting me know that she's there for me if I ever need to chat with someone confidentially about personal issues. She's really so sweet. I decided to let her know about my blog. I tend to write more here than I do while chatting, so this would be a way for her to see another side of me. I hope she'll also drop by my Discord server again sometime.

I'm going to be experimenting more and more. I've found it helpful to think of some decisions as experiments. It helps me to avoid waiting so long before I'm satisfied with a decision. Instead, I choose to take quicker action with the idea that this is a temporary experiment to see how things go. If things work out, then great, I can choose to continue. Otherwise, if things don't work out, then the experiment still succeeds because it helped me learn regardless. This blog started as an experiment. Now I've decided that it actually helps me a lot with getting my thoughts sorted. And I like the aspect of knowing that my decisions might be seen by others (well definitely now by at least one person 😀), so I have a bit of an accountability partner. One new experiment will be playing Arknights. My friends Scruffy and Archer play, and I've heard others mention playing. I had been gradually developing the opinion that PvE games aren't really worth getting in...

I'm going to be leaving the mobile game War of Genesis. I find myself devoting less and less time to the game. I feel that the guild has been slowly dying since our leader Dex left. I knew this would happen, though I had hoped I might be wrong. The new leader AJ is a cool guy, but I don't think he has the personality or the time to really keep things going as the leader. He was great as a second-in-command. Oh, but how I'll miss my friend Mia. 🙁 Besides, I think the game isn't so conducive to bringing people together. Yes, they have group activities, like Storm Conquest, guild festivals, and now the new raids. But Storm Conquest is the only one where you really have to work together, and that gets ruined by the P2W players. BTW, I tried to get into Dragon Raja this morning to finally play again, but I couldn't access the server. A sign for me to stop playing that too?

I am considering leaving War of Genesis. When I moved over to TSO to follow my friend Mia, it was fun and I almost felt like the game was getting better. It makes so much difference to be among a good group of friends. But then the guild leader left, and things weren't quite the same anymore. Plus, the game itself isn't really conducive to group activities. So without a good social group, the game feels dead. I don't think I'll be investing much time into GWENT either. I already find that the strategy involved with the game requires some study and continued practice. I think I may still play it from time to time, but I don't expect it will be a main game for me. So I suppose that just leaves Dragon Raja. I still have my doubts about whether that will last long term. I like my club, but I don't feel quite that connected with it. I basically just have connections with a few people in the game. But those require a lot of time to maintain the relationships. T...

I was participating in Storm Conquest within the mobile game War of Genesis. My guild TSO (The Shadow Order) has been recently competing against a Korean guild SOG for the one ruin location.We use to be able to fight against other guilds to capture the ruin, but now SOG has been sending their whales against us. Pretty much their whole guild is full of whales. I use to think P2W was fine in games. I myself do pay some for improvements, though usually I am more concerned about cosmetics. It didn't seem like it mattered too much. Like in Mobile Legends, you still needed skill to actually play competitively. But in War of Genesis and Dragon Raja, it looks like P2W has such a huge advantage. One SOG member is able to hold out against our whole guild. We even attempted to use strategy in timing the attacks, but that failed in the end because SOG could just pay lots of diamonds to speed up their attack. I'm tempted to write something to the developers, but I doubt it will make a dif...
