Alchemist Startover Chapter 112

New Chapter!
We are nearing the end of this volume, next week will be the next one in fact.
I haven’t read ahead into the next volume yet so I actually have no idea what to expect, I have seen the cover art though.

Speaking of art, it seems we’ve finally reached the end of the string of artworks we had in the previous chapters…
Well, as long as you don’t count the upcoming cover art?

Alchemist Startover Chapter 111

New Chapter!
I always like chapter numbers like this, they feel nice.
Chapter 111, 222, 333… etc
It feels even more significant when you get into the 1111 range of course, but that’s mostly reserved for chinese novels.
I wonder why that is?

You know the other day I checked out the Arifureta web novel again out of nostalgia, and for some reason I remembered it being way longer than it actually was!
Well, it is really long now because of all the epilogue nonsense chapters (I love them don’t get me wrong) that have eclipsed the original novel in size.

Alchemist Startover Chapter 110

New Chapter!
I somehow got involved in watching Reincarnated as a Slime again.
Amusingly I got a tweet notification that started with [Notice] and my brain autoprocessed it into the way Great Sage says it in my head.
But that’s not the main thing I wanted to talk about, just an amusing anecdote.

I was mostly impressed by how the anime is still going for Slime.
I think the only other anime I’ve seen go for completion like this that isn’t for a generic shounen is Strike the Blood.
Well, there’s still room for Slime to end up unfinished, and Danmachi might achieve that goal first.
We’ll see, who will achieve goalhood!

Alchemist Startover Chapter 108

New Chapter!
I venture to comicon this weekend.
Sadly, due to my indecisive approach… I haven’t got a cosplay prepared.
Honestly I didn’t even have any planned…
I had a lot of ideas for who I might go as but nobody felt particularly relevant to the current era.

I wanted someone from a 2024 anime but I really couldn’t choose one…
Oh well, there’s always next year right-?

Alchemist Startover Chapter 106

New Chapter!
I just had to replay several hours of Baldur’s Gate because I played some zones out of the intended order…
It meant quests in a previous zone had all been disabled because I had gone “too far ahead”…
So much for open world! Well I sort of get it, I went to a zone semi-directly tied to the main story so things progressed weirdly.

I also had an incident a while back where Shadowheart’s macguffin triggered but then she went back to not talking about it because I encountered what I assume was meant to be the second scene of its story relevance?

Alchemist Startover Chapter 105

New Chapter!
I almost turned off my PC with this window tabbed and without scheduling the post.
Now that would have been a disaster!

Original pre-chapter ramble here:
My artist friend is doing an commission for me on the side and I left most of the details up to them…
But uh, somehow they started combining bits of maid attire with a classroom teacher scenario but using the scifi plugsuit as a base?
It’s very… well it’s certainly a thing of all time…
I’m wondering where this will end up now.

Alchemist Startover Chapter 104

New Chapter!
I have spent 31 hours playing Badlur’s Gate 3.
And 35 hours modding Baldur’s Gate 3.

Do you see my problem?
I have spent more time staring at spreadsheets of in-game stats than actually playing the game!!!
I haven’t finished Act 1 even! Barely even half finished that!
But I’ve already made effectively two original subclasses by recreating the old style Cavalier to the best of my abilities and created a weapon that emulates Final Fantasy XIV’s Red Mage gameplay for Cleric-Warlock multiclass characters.

Alchemist Startover Chapter 103

New Chapter!
Fun fact! I have spent 10 hours playing Baldur’s Gate 3.
Fun fact! I have spent 10 hours modding Baldur’s Gate 3.

Yes.
I have spent the same amount of time modding the game as I have actually playing it.
That’s how crazy I am… well… sort of.
I just really really wanted to make a funny spell and sword referencing two of my most popular past characters.

Alchemist Startover Chapter 102

New Chapter!
I did not have “Haze Reverb English Release” on my 2024 bingo…

But here we are.

I can’t even bring myself to talk about ReZero, this is such a bigger shock to me.
This game was literally cobbled together on the hopes and dreams of a bunch of giantess artists!
I was fully convinced this thing would never get an English release because it’s absurdly niche!
I literally only tracked its development out of morbid curiosity for if they could pull it off as an art team.

Alchemist Startover Chapter 101

New Chapter!
The realm of Satisfactory kidnapped me today…
I spent several hours just trying to organise some basic stuff…
Literally just the starter iron production factory took me hours because I made the dumb idiot move of dismantling everything before rebuilding it…
So I had nothing producing the parts I needed to organise everything… so I had to make them by hand…
Yeah.
But it works now!
Automation is king!

Now I need to do the same for my Copper production line… before I start work on the Steel production line… but first I need coal power…
The factory never stops growing.

Alchemist Startover Chapter 100

New Chapter!
Chapter 100!
Recently I have been hit by a strong desire to play Baldur’s Gate and my friends constantly streaming it and inviting me to join them on a multiplayer campaign hasn’t helped…
In a few days Steam is doing the RPG sale so I am going to pick it up then if it’s on sale, but really, my friends aren’t making it easy to wait even a few more days.
Well, whatever the case, I am sloooowly making my way through Satisfactory content…

Very slowly.
