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.

So here it is - the coda, the encore - the curtain call.

Be sure to check it out! It's a great read again!

Some time ago, a nice person reached out to me on the contact form here (yes, people really do use these! :D) and asked about the Suikoden Runes Redone.

They specificially asked if it would be possible for me to remake the True Fire Rune and Sun Rune from the games.

I promised to do them, but it took me waaay longer than I initially anticipated, but here they are - both of the runes.

You can find them in various formats in the Suikoden Runes Redone section.

Week 5, and batch 5 of vio's great retrospective into 25 of very special rpgs that he dug up.

As always, you can read it here.

What a great journey that was, through 25 of selected rpgs, and a fun read on top.

So enjoy the last batch, read the quirky descriptions and have a good time!
