As promised, I continued our series of Final Fantasy XIV job icons, with Archer and Bard being added.

Archer was especially tricky to do since it's relative detailed and slanted, so mirroring wasn't all too easy. I think the result is good, though.

And we start the new year with a project similar to our famous Suikoden Runes Redone: This time it's about the Final Fantasy XIV job icons.

This time, however, there is already a good repository of high quality images available on the web. It's linked on our job icons page.

But you know what? I like to remake these things, and it's fun to have those as source files available for me so that I can use them however they please.

Of course, mine are released under an Creative Commons license, so feel free to use them as you like as well.

So, this concludes 2024.

For this website, it was a year of ups and downs. Our fantastic 25 years - 25 recommendations marked a great way to celebrate rpg-o-mania's 25th birthday.

On the other hand, towards the end, things slowed down significantly.

Right now, I'm quite preoccupied with a demanding job and some other private project (as I outlined in my last news report), but I still have plans for content for this website.

Especially the Suikoden Runes Redone are still pretty popular - I see them being used here and there, especially on reddit.

Of course, you can use the stuff I've created here as you like. I'm always happy about some form of being named, though :)

So, let's hope for more content in 2025 and enjoy the last day of 2024. Might 2025 a better year for everyone than 2024 was.

Oh my, it's been more than a month since I last updated good old rpg-o-mania.

First of all, if you're here for content: There are some more nice Visions of Mana artworks available.

Aside of that, if you're interested what's going on: a lot.

Usually, I keep things just focused on rpgs and rpg-o-mania here, but my life has been stressful a lot recently.

I have a relatively new job (since March) that pays the bills well, but it's very demanding.

I'm also writing a book for my kids, which is also pretty time consuming. And I'm visiting them as often as I possibly can.

So between kids, working, sleeping, writing and the occassional run in Final Fantasy XIV or Ys X, there is not much time for rpg-o-mania here.

But I'm trying my best to update stuff here.

Even though I don't know if anyone visits here regularly.

To be honest, even among all of the stress that's going on, I'm feeling a tad lonely. So if you feel like it, drop me a message using our various contact options.

It would be nice to hear from some nice people. I have to deal with too many bad people these days.

So yeah, feel free to contact me, I'd be glad to hear from you.
