My Real Life. 2026 Edition

Posted about some dreams, now what do we actually have here on the ground and what to realistically expect from the nearby future. I do yap about stuff on stream quite often, but it’s probably quite tricky to get the whole picture for someone tuning in from time to time, so here’s a better angle and archive/diary for future me.

My Dream Life. 2026 Edition

Yesterday’s sigma grindset post got me the idea to write down my current ideal, perfect endgame that I would love to achieve, at least for the archiving purposes to read it a few years later and laugh.

Sigma Grindset VS Relaxed Work/Life Balance

Getting this conversation with friends quite often. I have one friend who’s working in the restaurant as a cook, could be chef already since he has 20 years of experience at this point, but he doesn’t want to live at work. His schedule currently is very relaxed, since he just goes in, prepares a bunch of ingredients for other cooks to use and goes home when he’s done. With his experience it takes around 3-4 hours, sometimes even less, then he also has 2 days off, even though they are in the middle of the week.

Why Am I Not Playing Ragnarok Zero Global

Remember those plans to post twice on Tuesday, yeah, how about zero and Wednesday too, all plans totally went exactly how I wanted. Well at least I have some time today, so here we go, guess for the rest of the month I’ll need to post twice a day to catch up, especially since next week Wednesday and Thursday might be no posting. Now it’s time to talk about the topic that I’ve been asked multiple times last few days – Ragnarok Zero Global and why am I skipping it.

Blaugust 2026. Week 3 Plans

Morning was a little busy, so a bit of a late planning post today. This week again two days off, this time with a bit weird timings – Tuesday and Thursday, I just have appointments both days that are a bit tricky to mix with streaming due to scheduling. At least not super lengthy appointments, but I plan to combine it with meeting my friends and family, so it’s still going to be quite a lot of time considering train rides.

Recap of the Week Two of Blaugust

Well, the pace of posting was great for the first half of the week, but then another birthday (or 3 simultaneously) hit so hard I missed 3 days, catching up will continue then. At least it should get more chill until the end of this month, but friend got his 2 weeks of vacation starting tomorrow, so I bet there will be something to disrupt my plans still (and 1 more birthday).

Ragnarok Online Inspired Games

5 years ago, levelling with community group in Magma 2 on RO Prime server start

Original Ragnarok Online did affect my life a lot in my late school and early college years and I do return to it whenever there is a good opportunity, but there aren’t many good ones recently. Official servers in regions with good ping happen rarely and end up being whale milking stations with barely any population after a few months, private servers are a bit of risky business for streaming. New Ragnarok games are just fanservice and nostalgia covering gacha, stamina system, autoplay and atrocious microtransactions. Which is sad, because some of those games are actually well made and fun, when you get to play them for those limited moments without autoplay on and when some whale isn’t soloing your full group in PvP.

My Personal Time Anomalies or Constantly Running out of Time

Not every week I get days off, less often I have two and even less often I have a day off where I don’t need to go somewhere, meet someone or do something. Summer at home is full of birthdays, friends, and family gatherings, so I do try to take a couple of days off regularly, but feels like after some days off I need another one to actually rest, but nope. When I will be in Armenia this autumn I will cut the amount of days off a lot and get some streaming marathons going too, so less IRL activities, but not a lot of free time still.

Gothic 1 Remake. Little Review Fresh Out of My Long Playthrough

Finished my Gothic Remake playthrough today on Hard difficulty after 143 hours on Steam and 97 hours on the save file. Way longer than original game took me a few years ago on my first playthrough (also on stream). Hard difficulty sure made an impact and not levelling lockpicking to keep those puzzles more challenging did affect the difference in Steam and save file playtime with reloads.

Blaugust 2026. Week 2 Plans

And it’s scheduling post time, I did pick some morning workout over morning posting in the end, so schedule is a little late today. Trying to be productive in the morning, but not a lot of time available and pretty tough competition for that time.
