       somehow falling back into the PSO2:NGS hole. i think i just needed to not be playing hunter? hu sword in particular feels like it’s caught at a weird midpoint, where it no longer has the things i liked about it from oracle, but it isn’t fast enough or vertical enough to comfortably handle the demands of NGS’s combat—probably this is a learn-to-play issue but, like, slayer is right there and lets me access the serotonin instantly

       i think i’m falling out of love with FFXIV—there’s just no midpoint between “sleepwalk-difficulty garbage content” and “you have to explain calculus to a room of 7 clowns except you’re also a clown”, and that’s bugged me for a long time. it feels like that gulf only gets wider as the game develops, while the things i like about my combat toolkits are farther and farther away.i keep thinking back to OG PSO2’s ultimate quests, the only MMO content i’ve ever played that hit a perfect balance of “can be pushed infinitely hard” and “can be approached with infinite chill”. you had to earn the privilege of comfortably existing in those zones, it took practice and awareness, but once you had the skill it felt like gliding—smooth and frictionless. there’s something almost meditative about it, and i want to look for it in more places
