CUTE RPGS FOREVER

Yo guys I made a tumblr like everyone seem to be nowadays. It'll probably mostly consist of wacky screenshots and wordy reviews of older games and all that, you know me. Maybe a tiny bit of ponyspam but I'll try to limit it... I promise! Anybody else have one that I haven't started following yet...?

Let's see... other than that, the videogame industry is literally trying to kill me by coming out with so many must-have portable games all in a row. Right now I'm getting through the postgame of Pokémon White and playing Dissidia 012. Hopefully I can finish off most of that before Final Fantasy IV Complete Collection comes out... I'm really excited about it, even if I've played that game in one form or another dozens upon dozens of times over. Hey, it's FFIV. No explanation necessary.

Still, it's so bad that I'm actually neglecting Dragon Quest VI of all things! I didn't want to finish off my only unbeaten DQ game too quickly, but still...

I'm also messing around with White Knight Chronicles for PS3. A bit late, I know. It's actually pretty fun, I like how it actually has an offline story mode to play in addition to its online mode. Also made more fun by virtue of me playing a humanized Rarity from MLP:FiM as my character, but yeah

... and it wasn't even that good of an update, that time. Okay it was badass, but not particularly full of content.

Anyway, I've been busy with school. My graduation's in May, just have to finish up these two throwaway elective classes! And then figure out what to do with the rest of my life. My plans so far: stay in school forever, hope nobody notices.

I've also become addicted to drugs. Actually that's not true, it's worse: I'm playing Final Fantasy XI again! MMORPGs~~~ *^o^*

Uh, well anyway, I'm enjoying it a lot more than last time. But it IS a hugeassed timesink, which further explains the lack of things to update about. I'm sure you'd all like to hear about MY ONLINE RPG CHARACTERS but it will have to wait for some other time. But if you were to fall victim to this game anytime soon, the Caitsith server might be where you'd find me. Maybe.

"Regular" games-wise, I'm juggling FFXIII, SO4, and now Record of Agarest War. I've got the squish boob mousepad from that with the deluxe edition. It's... very distracting. But now unfortunately I feel as if I couldn't use any other kind from now on. We've evolved beyond mousepads without secondary sexual characteristics. We're in the future, and life is great.

Suddenly! Super awesome file link: Mystic Ark Artbook!

That's about it for now. I've neglected Pokémon so much lately, I'm majorly guilt tripping about it >_>; but if anyone wants to trade or whatever that would probably inspire me to play it!

The PS3 is back up and running, so I've been plowing through SMT: Nocturne again like it was a dirty whore on discount. It's interesting how much progress you can make when determined, also 2nd playthroughs are usually much quicker than the first, so I should be caught up in no time.

I think I might've mentioned it before, but Secret of Mana on the Virtual Console is amazing. Not only because it's a great classic game, but the multiplayer is so much easier on the Wii. I never got to play it more than 2 players back in the day... I mean, who had a multitap? Seriously. But yeah, this game is still incredible. It's hard to believe they actually had to cut this game down a bit because it was originally slated for the SNES's CD system. I'd love to see an HD remake of this game with all the content that was cut added in. Then again... this goes for 99% of my favorite games :D~

Also, I unfortunately have almost zero desire to finish Pokémon Platinum now because of all the awesome HeartGold/SoulSilver news >_> HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO US. Maybe I'll actually completely fill out my Pokédex this time, though. That's some goal to work towards.

... I need to finish all these damned games. (So I can play more)

Forcibly imposed upon me by krile.

You know how sometimes people on your friend's list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when are they working THERE? Since when are they dating HIM/HER? since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you *should* already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.

Please copy mine below, erase my answers putting yours in their place then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration! One-Word-Answers seldom help anyone out...


( Words )

Well, that took some time to do. Now, to soft reset for eternity to see if my Deoxys is good.

I've been commenting on LJ a lot and krile has been posting all the relevant RL-stuff that's been going on, so I've neglected to update my own journal XD;

Well, I beat Persona 3. I am so tempted to pick it up and play it over again, but on the other hand I want FES =(

I mean the opening movie has Elizabeth going down a slide in the park for some reason which is worth $50 or whatever on its own. I keep trying to conceive of what possible situation could warrant her going down a slide, I MUST KNOW! (and no, you're not allowed to tell me if you do know)

I can only hope the good reviews and sales of the game could cause Atlus to release it here, uh, please? <3

I've also bought Growlanser: Heritage of War but I have no idea why. I mean... it comes with a lot of goodies, so... but the shameful truth is that I haven't even played any of the other Growlanser games that have been release here, even though I have the deluxe edition sitting at home.

Maybe one of my brothers will want it for Christmas and I can use it as a gift maybe minus the goodies, or I'll play it myself at some point. Or sell it on eBay in a year for mucho dinero? Hell, I bought Suikoden II from eBay so I'm entitled to pray on some desperate gamers if I want to, it's karma or some crap.

Also, in case anyone still doesn't know, tomorrow at Toys 'r Us you can download a Manaphy to your game via Mystery Gift between 12pm-3pm, and if you participate in the download you get $5 off any DS game! Not a bad deal at all.

Okay so I've been on vacation for the past... whatever many days, which might explain lack of commenting and updating, among other things. I probably should have said something about it, oops. First I went down to North Carolina to visit my family, and right now I am at Disney World! To quickly recap:

- I have, for some reason, finally begun to play Magical Starsign, and.. I can't put it down! It's surprisingly addictive. I chose Shadow magic because it sounded more interesting (and the game said it was more challenging). Your first spell has the best name of any spell in any game ever: Shadow Die. It's actually "die" as in "a single dice", but I like to think of it as just some spell trying to sound as badass as possible, even if it doesn't make any real sense.

I haven't done any of the egg stuff or amigo mode (lolz) or anything, but maybe I will when I get back!

- Besides the aforementioned Magical Starsign playing, I keep thinking of you, alice_curiouser, whenever I see Alice in Wonderland related stuff! <3

- I was speaking some awesome Spanish to the waitress at the Mexican restaurant in the Mexico section of the World Showcase. She said my Spanish was really good :3

- Bought Pokémon merchandise at the Japan section of the World Showcase in Epcot. BUIZEL DOLL! They had a lot of D/P generation merchandise, which was awesome.


We'll be coming back home Sunday. I miss the internet ($10 for one 24-hour shot of internet? Ouch!) and console games! But obviously it's a lot of fun here and it's nice to take a break. SEE YOU SOON GUYZ <333
