Let's Play Some Motherf*$&ing Games: 2010!!!!!!

[Sierra]

Touhou Odyssey: Stomping aftergame bosses. Most of the refluffed plot bosses are done (just have the F16/18 reduxes left), and lord did that give me a stupid amount of skill points. At one point I had three million just sitting around. Have one million of that left now--been keeping some in reserve in case I stumble across another PC, but I'd guess that's not going to happen until I can fully explore floor 21. Which in turn clearly won't happen until I kill all the seal bosses. Three out of four of those are done; the one of floor 20 isn't realistically beatable just yet. Doubled MAG + anything MT = horrible massacre. It'd be feasible if Tenshi's debuff move had a respectable hitrate, but god does that skill suck at doing what it's supposed to do.

Oh, boss rush done too. This was harsh, and aggravated considerably by Djinn Storm spam near the end. At least the rewards are nice (GREAT QUESTION MASK. +100% to all stats. Yes). I desperately hope the redux version of it is not required to progress in the aftergame, however. And there damn well better not be more optional bosses lurking on floors 7/13/17. I'm pretty sure the maps look exactly as they did previously, but there are so many teleporters on them that it's possible one of those events is actually a leftover boss.

New PC seems pretty decent. Not like Rumia and Wriggle needed to be made even more obsolete, but it's nice to have them in the same fighter.

SRWW - *Lowe comes up with a mech upgrade out of nowhere.*

*GUNDAMKAISER GERBERA STRAIGHT.*

... >____>

[Clear Tranquil]

SOFD- About to kick some Space Flea butt I think. Revorse Tower floor five? I hope so! Outslugged big "demon" baddie in the space lab at L61 with Pericci though Ilia (L47) was dead at the end. Mavelle and Millie were L55~ and managed to share in the EXP reward~

[Luther Lansfeld]

XF- Beat 2-7 or whatever. 2-4 was ridiculously hard, all the next ones were stupid easy. Hope the next battles will be a bit more challenging.

[Shale]

SRWW - *Lowe comes up with a mech upgrade out of nowhere.*

*GUNDAMKAISER GERBERA STRAIGHT.*

... >____>

Lowe Gear: That goddamn awesome.

[hinode]

SRWW - *Lowe comes up with a mech upgrade out of nowhere.*

*GUNDAMKAISER GERBERA STRAIGHT.*

... >____>

So have you seen the attack where Lowe throws the 150 meter Gerbera Straight like a crazy motherfucker yet?

[Taishyr]

Suikoden Tactics: Heinz is clearly not a complete asshole who wants to backstab us and yet everyone loves him.

Go Coop, tho.

Current squadron is, usually swapped in/out, Lazsnow/Kyril/Corselia/Seneca/Flare/Kika/Sigurd/Nalleo/Dario/Eugene/Flare (...I think that's it?). Should try some of the newer people, but lazy.

Onimusha 3 Abridged:

Episode 4: Ranmaru's Still a Moron

Ranmaru: Oh burn in hell!
Narrator: *bitch slaps Ranmaru* BACK IN YOUR CAGE!
Ranmaru: Yes sir! *does exactly that*
Narrator: Anyway, when we last left SAMANOSUKE, he was about to take a nap cause he was bored.
Samanosuke: Nah, I'm up now, so what do I have to do again?
Narrator: How the hell am I suppose to know? I just read a god damned script! You're the protagonist!
Samanosuke: Sheesh, whatever.  Anyway, I shall...wait, crap, am I at a dead end?
Ako: Yes, yes you are.
Samanosuke: ...well, I guess its Jacques turn now!

*Jacques takes over*
Jacques: Well, now that I have this RED DISC that Samanosuke sent me...
Samanosuke: *From future* WHAT THE HELL? AKO!!! I DIDN'T SAY YOU COULD TAKE THAT THING!!!!
Jacques: I shall continue onward in my journey!
Samanosuke: *From future* ...strange, after my complaint, the Red Disc spontaneously appeared in the exact spot I planned on placing it!  Time Travel is a perplexing thing indeed!
Jacques: ...this is my section damn it, STOP INTERRUPTING ME!
Samanosuke: *From future* Oh, right, sorry.
Jacques: Anyway, lets make a move on and-...
*He enters a room with a HUGE FUCKING 2 HEADED DOG*
Jacques: So...Ako...what's it saying?
Ako: Why do you assume I know what dogs say?
Jacques: Cause you have pretty much every useless power known to man, outside of exact specific scenarios that only me and my future companion would run into?
Ako: Oh, right! WEll, it says LEAVE NOW!
Ranmaru: *comes in out of nowhere* Oh, yeah, I forgot to say, THERE'S A GUARD DOG!
Jacques: ...damn it, you're not suppose to be in this scene!
Ranmaru: I'm not?
Jacques: NO! NOW GET OUT SO I CAN HAVE A BOSS FIGHT!
Ranmaru: ...nobody loves me *he leaves even though he was never actually in this scene to begin with*
Jacques: So I guess this is the guard dog then...lets get this fight over with!
*Boss fight ensues, Jacques emerges victorious*
Jacques: Ok, now that that's done with...
*trap springs, entire area starts flooding*
Jacques: ...should have seen that coming.
*He runs up stairs, killing more ZOMBIE SKELETON DEMONS*
Ako: Man, your luck really sucks Jacques.
Jacques: No thanks to you!
Ako: Well, if you stopped yelling at me, you wouldn't miss that DEMON TRAIN OVER THERE!
Jacques: What demon train? *he looks behind him, sees a DEMON TRAIN leaving* ...oh the convenience *he gets on it without any flair and drama despite it moving at max speed*
Jacques: *sigh* I just want to go home...can you tell Samanosuke to figure this stuff out already?
Ako: OK!!!  Wait, what are you doing?
Jacques: Taking a nap, cause I'm not going to be in the game for quite a while due to some screwed up nonsense.
Ako: Got it!

*back 420 years in the future*
Samanosuke: So its my turn again?  Ok, lets check out this new room!
*he does exactly that, upon entering the room*
Zombie Ranmaru: DIE!!!!!!!! *he misses spectacularly*
Samanosuke: ...oh, hi, Ranmaru...what's up?
Zombie Ranmaru: I'LL KILL YOU!!!!
Samanosuke: Are you really sure you want another curb stomping? I mean...seriously, do you think anything is going to change since 20 minutes ago?
Zombie Ranmaru: YES!!!! NOW I WILL KIL-
*Samanosuke kicks him in the teeth*
Zombie Ranmaru: OW! My 434 year old Undead teeth! You'll pay for that!
Samanosuke: Look, can we just get on with-*Random aura engulfs Samanosuke* What kind of sorcery is this?
Zombie Ranmaru: Oh look, you fell for my trap! Now you'll become a Genma and I'll get my revenge!
Samanosuke: So you're going to turn me into a demon?
Zombie Ranmaru: Yes!
Samanosuke: Thereby making me stronger just like you?
Zombie Ranmaru: Yes!
Samanosuke: And you're suppose to defeat me after I get this upgrade?
Zombie Ranmaru: YES!!!!
Samanosuke: Even though you couldn't beat me as I am now?
Zombie Ranmaru: Yes! THIS PLAN IS FLAWLESS! SEE YOU IN HELL!! *Samanosuke teleports away*
Ako: Oh no! I need to go tell someone something is wrong! I know! I'll tell them!

*In Jacques Apartment*
Ako: Samanosuke is in trouble!
Henri: I must help him! If he's in trouble, dad is too! I'm off to Notre Dame! *Henri charges out of the house*
Michelle: No! Henri! You mustn't...Ako, we have to find him, or else he's in trouble.
Ako: Ok! Lets go!  But you'll have to become a playable character if we're to do this.
Michelle: Ok, can I still use guns and grenades?
Ako: Uh, I guess?
Michelle: THEN LETS DO THIS!
*Michelle guns down a bunch of demons with a Semi-Automatic Shotgun, Assault Rifle, and blows a few things up with Grenades*
Ako: So you find anything yet?
Michelle: No, not quite-...*finds a document* ...except that this says there's something going on in the Zoo...HENRI AND SAMANOSUKE MUST BE THERE!
Ako: OK! ...wait, we don't even know that Henri got kidnapped, aren't we getting ahead of ourselves?
Michelle: He's a 10 year old boy whose sole purpose is to be motivation for Jacques to care about this time line (Cause apparently, me being engaged to him isn't enough...), and help out my own character development, what od you think?
Ako: I don't think!
Michelle: (how do Jacques and Samanosuke put up with her?)

*meanwhile, in jail*
Henri: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!
Samanosuke: Be strong, Henri! Michelle will save us!
Henri: No she won't! She's a bitch!
Samanosuke: Look, its either have faith in her, or just whine and accept your death.
Henri: DO I have a choice?
Samanosuke: No, no you don't.

*at the Zoo with a french name that I don't give a shit about*
Michelle: You know...it occurred to me...me and Henri were speaking English even while you weren't around, even though we were all clearly speaking French before you entered the picture...how is that possible?
Ako: Cause French people speak English ^_^?
Michelle: ...anyway, we're in the Zoo, so I guess there's going to be Demonic animals right?
*A DEMON GORILLA COMES OUT OF A CAGE*
Michelle: EAT LED YOU UGLY PIECE OF CRAP!
*It dies, Michelle explores for a bit, finds a bunch of useless items, and a Sniper Rifle, ultimately gets a boat*
Ako: So...why don't you and Henri get along?
Michelle: Cause his mother died in a car accident...
Ako: Oh, ok! That makes perfect sense!
Michelle: ...there's more to the story than that, you realize.
Ako: Oh, I get it! You crashed the car into her, didn't you?
Michelle: ...what? No! That's not it!  She died protecting Henri, and he blamed himself, so now he just doesn't want a new mom!
Ako: Huh? You make no sense!
Michelle: But that's what happened...
*Boat stops moving, Fish Demons appear...then get shot to death*
Ako: Uh-oh, is the boat broken?
Michelle: Nah, its fine *she kicks the motor, it starts moving* see?
(This actually happens in the game.)
*Michellle reaches the jail*
Henri: Michelle! Yay!!
Michelle: Hang on, I'll get you out of here!
Samanosuke: ...what? You're just going to ignore me? Geez, its cause I'm asian, isn't it?
*they get out of Jail*
Henri: Michelle!!!
Michelle: Henri!!!
*The them from Chariot's of Fire plays as those two slowly run to a hug*
Skeletor: FOOLED YOU!!!! *Grabs both right before they hug*
Samanosuke: SKELETOR! GET BACK HERE!
Skeletor: A woman and a boy, perfect specimens.  Ehehehehe!  COME AND SAVE THEM IF YOU CAN SAMANOSUKE!
Samanosuke: Whelp, that diversion is done with, I guess I better go save those two...
*Samanosuke beats the shit out of a crap load of Demon Gorillas on his quest to reach those two, including running all the way across the Zoo to get ONE FUCKING KEY to open a door where the two were taken which was from a door in the exact room he started in*
Samanosuke: Capcom, why do you do this to me?
Skeletor: Because, you're the main character!
Samanosuke: Since when do you break the 4th wall?
Skeletor: ...SILENCE! YOU WILL NOT SAVE THESE TWO! NOW DIE!
Samanosuke: Wait, you mean...I'm about to have a boss fight...that's actually RELEVANT?
Skeletor: What about Ranmaru?
Samanosuke: He's relevant?
Skeletor: ...ok, I suppose I should have chosen a BETTER henchman to ressurect...maybe that Honda guy would have been better...but enough banther, LET THIS EPIC FATED CONFRONTA-...
*Samanosuke shoots a flaming arrow into Skeletor's face*
Skeletor: DAMN YOU SAMANOSUKE!!! *he "dies", Michelle and Henri get saved*
Michelle: Thank you Samanosuke, its finally over!
Samanosuke: No, its not.  There's never just one freak of nature, or alternatively, they never die merely once.  Here, can you take me to this spot?  That's probably where they'll be.
Michelle: Uh, sure!
*they jump in Michelle's car!*
Ako: Hmm...you know, Henri, you should let go of the past.
Samanosuke: Holy crap, did you just say something useful?
Ako: ^_^
Henri: But I can't do that so easily!
Ako:  Well, if I get an item from your mother, I can let you meet her one last time, do you have anything?
Henri: Uhh...dad might!
Ako: Oh, that's too bad.  Guess we need to come up with a different...
Samanosuke: No, we don't; you just travel back to Jacques and get an item from him and bring it here, you have that power remember?
Ako: Oh, right!

*she goes back to Jacques*
Jacques: Hmm...an item from my dead wife? Uh, how about this ring she use to wear?
Ako: NO! It has to be something from her.
Jacques: ...just take the damn ring.
Ako: Oh, ok! I forget why I'm here anyway ^_^
*Back in the present, Ako does some weird shit with the ring*
Henri's Mother: Henri, stop being a little cry baby and move on with your life! Its not your fault I killed myself for you!
Henri: Its not? Ok, yay! I feel better!
Ako: There! Now you and Michelle should get along much better!
Samanosuke: Awww, isn't that happy...now if you excuse me, I got a cryptic castle in the middle of this city to overtake single handedly!  You two stay here!
*Samanosuke charges into the castle...only to find he can't progress at all cause everything is locked*
Samanosuke: let me guess...all the objects I need exist 500 years ago, and you'll have to get Jacques get them for me, right?
Ako: YEP! Later!

*back with Jacques*
Jacques: Man, that was the smoothest ride ever, Demons should really go into the transportation business, cause they're much better at that than the whole World Domination thing...
Honda: AHA! ITS YOU!!!
Jacques: Oh, the guy who looks exactly like Misturugi from Soul Calibur.
Honda: Yes! NOW EN GUARDE!
Jacques: Wait, we're enemies now?
Honda: BUT OF COURSE!
Jacques: What makes you say that?
Honda: Because...uhh...*he looks up, sees a demon woman* ...because we are, OK!
*Half assed boss fight ensues*
Jacques: Ok, look, its quite clear you're not evil, just kind of psycho...
Honda: And you're not half bad a fighter!
Demon Woman: Heihachi, kill him already!
Honda: No.
Demon Woman: Why not? I'm your boss!
Honda: No you aren't.
Demon Woman: What?
Honda: I don't take orders, so I'm just sort of going to leave now.
Demon Woman: Bah, I don't need you, I'm going back to my slave labor.
Jacques: Say...this place...its in France...ARE WE BACK IN MY TIME!? *remembers he just fought Honda* ...no, no I'm not.
Ako: Good news! Samanosuke is here as well.
Jacques: Ah, will I meet him?
Ako: No, cause he's here 500 years from now ^_^!
Jacques: ...I see...well, guess I should explore this place or something
*Bunch of emblem puzzles and swapping back and forth between characters later, in the middle of which Jacques learns the weird demon woman's name is Vega Donna*
Vega Donna: Come you French, if you don't work, I'LL EAT YOUR SOUL!  Now, I'm going to take a nap!
Jacques: ...did she just quite literally let me get a free pass into rescuing these guys?
French Slaves: Uh? We're saved? Ok, lets stop working and run into demon infested terroritory!!!
Jacques: yes! Do that! Hurry!
Vega Donna: What the...Demons are escaping? GET THEM MY GENERIC MINIONS!
Jacques: Oh no, generic genma, whatever will I do, if only I had ancient japanese weaponry of illogical elemental properties to fight them with...
Vega Donna: Yeah, you can't beat them cause you totally lack tho-...
*Jacques kicks their asses effortlessly with ancient japanese weaponry of illogical elemental properties*
Vega Donna: But you just said you didn't have those...
Jacques: ...I'm just going to pretend that sarcasm wasn't invented in the 16th century and casually leave now.
*He does exactly that, meanwhile back in the Future*
Hang Dude: Whoa man, its like...you again...
Samanosuke: How the hell did you get here? And since when did you talk like a stereotype hawaiin surfer?  Wait, how do I even know what the hell Hawaii is?
Hang Dude: I just do, man!  Now, are you like going to do my challenge...man?
Samanosuke: ...I guess I might as well kill time waiting for Jacques do his ACTUAL PLOT.
*back with the main plot*
Jacques: Ok, I have saved some slaves and *key comes flying towards him from nowhere* Huh? A useful object? Didn't expect that...
Honda: Here you go, there's more French Men in the area over in the front.
Jacques: ..why are you helping me now?  Didn't we just sort of try to kill each other?
Honda: HA! You act as though I actually plan these things out! That's a good one!
Jacques: ...I'm gonna go do some more heroic stuff if you don't mind.
Honda: You go do that, I'm gonna fade away from significance again!
*more random Resident Evil like Emblem Puzzles later*
Jacques: Ok, we've not really run into any real competition in a while, something vile is afoot!
*a trap triggers, Jacques and Ako, despite her TIME TELEPORTING POWERS, are stuck in that room*

*back in 2004*
Henri: DAD NEEDS HELP! He's in trouble!
Michelle: What? Jacques' in trouble? But...he's 500 years in the past! How are we suppose to help him?
Henri: We just will, OK!? I'M GOING TO SAVE HIM!
Michelle: Not alone you aren't, I'm coming too!  First, we need to find Samanosuke! He'll know what to do!
Henri: Ok!!!

Will Michelle and Henri find Samanosuke?  Will Jacques die a painful death in this cliched trap room?  Will Honda ever figure out if he's a villain or just some arbitrary ally?  Will Ranmaru EVER serve a genuine purpose in this story?

Ranmaru: HEY! I'm already really important! I mean...look at me! I have a name and everything...I even have a zombiified version of myself!

...like I said, will Ranmaru EVER serve a genuine purpose in this story?

Ranmaru: ...aww...

TUNE IN NEXT TIME FOR ONIMUSHA 3 ABRIDGED!

---

I realize my writing is probably just sucking now, but I made a commitment and I'll stand by it!  Next episode should be the last <_<

[Pyro]

Dragon Age: Origins.

This just FEELS like a Bioware. The throwaway opening (x2!). The quick establishment of an epic premise. The dialog branch style... there is just no mistaking it.

I am enjoying it so far. The difficulty on Normal is not much, but it is a hella lot of fun to burn up some Darkspawn. Yes sir. Playing a female Mage because I heard that females had a better plot and I like burninating things.

[Clear Tranquil]

... and done. Was rewarded shiny FMVs, endings and credits after a hard earned victory on the fourth attempt. Overall thoughts later. Zzzzzz.

[Grefter]

They fixed some of the spikey difficulty in patches after release and mages are brokened.  There is some actual consequence to your sex in DA regarding the endings unless there is something a bit twisty they do that I don't expect.

I will have to play my next character as a female elf, but after the win of Dwarfstache when I started up a Mage I had to roll with a Manstache as well because goddamn they have some pimping stache action in this game.

[Luther Lansfeld]

XF: Just beat the ambushed by monsters battle. I decided to kill King Tarrasque III instead of trying to do wacky nonsense at the gate. Petrify is pretty mean. The escape map was pretty silly since the win conditions weren't really laid out (I could have checked them I guess!). Ended up sending one Berserker in the map and hoping not to die.

[Clear Tranquil]

Star Ocean FD character thoughts -

Roddick- Decent enough. Probably the most mellow of the SO mains since I can't remember him doing any overtly over the top emotionally dramatic whining/etc like Fayt and Edge >.> Mainly just there, kind of mellow and laid back and his reactions to others in some of the PAs were hilarious.

In game - SO main. Which means he is good but there's usually better (Mavelle, Maria/Peppita, Reimi/Meracle) although the main is usually easy to control as is the case here too I think/ Never really used him enough to tell just how good he can actually become - just until Millie and Ronyx with Mavelle joined proper as well as to recruit T'nique - but yeah.

Millie-Spirited/spunky female lead who's not afraid to speak her mind or deliver a punt to those mouthing off about her!? Hell yes I'll bite. Unfortunately they had to stick in some damsel in distress stuff there right at the very end of the game which put a bit of a damper on the whole thing but oh well. She's probably still the best female lead? I don't remember Rena very well but I'll put her above the other two >.>

In game - Healbot. Earned her keep and then some. Eventually a rez bot too. Incredibly useful to my no item creationed team keeping my fighters in fighing condition enough so that I always usually had at least one extra PC left to switch to for item use if needed. Sometimes she didn't quite keep up and the only PC left would be Millie herself (she mostly kept herself safe at range) which resulted in major ouchies a couple of times as I frantically switched to her to try to frantically revive peeps only to fail in dodging the pain from teh bosses. Regardless her support was vital to my wins when I got a good rythm going.

Ronyx- Toro. If the hat fits ... Completely oblivious to a lot of things and off in his own little world Didn't get as much out of him as I was hoping, again the characters are mostly just there in this game.

In game - Used him for like two seconds =P Offence mage!? Picked up a bunch of spells for him from treasure chests in the final dungeons which might be interesting.

Ilia- I still thought of Mirage when I first starting playing. At least on the surface i.e they both have similar equipment/battle styles, they both like their drink and they both are a team with their superiors (Mirage/Cliff, Ilia/Ronyx) However yeah there is definitely more to Ilia than Mirage, at least that we get to see. I'm not sure that's such a good thing though >.> Her bitchiness to Phia was out of line unless I'm missing something, hell Ronyx wasn't even there and while her reactions over the other women in the party and Ronyx were at least understandable ... yeah. Kick ass in the final FMVs though and a good enough person at heart =-)

In game - Solid. Played mostly as her until Mavelle joined. Pure brawler, works. Mistakenly switched her out for Welch and then switched her back in later on. As a result she was a bit lower levelled than my other PCs (Ilia was ... L47 for the big "demon" baddie in the space lab) but still good. May be relatively tanky and durable when built properly as well, I dunno?


Mavelle- Token beautiful mysterious woman type. Interesting enough backstory but since I didn't fufill the requirements to complete it since that would have meant losing her as a PC she was mostly just there. I can live with that!

In game - Broken~

Pericci- I thought she was a bit annoying at first which is surprising for me, I definitely found her more annoying than Peppita since she stuck her tongue out at me, was quite rude and ran away instead of giving me a free show ticket, autograph and sticking around to help me out in a crisis! However once I actually managed to recruit her as a PC her natural bounce and happiness worked for me. Apart from that - there! (yes this is getting to be a theme!)

In game - Ah proto-type Peppita ^.^ Main PC. Mistake probably. She's definitely not as good as Peppita with Power Dance not being a broken MT buff , Healing/Magical Dance not working on herself, her damage not being a gut's worth full and her statuses not being many. Still Power Dance was a nice AoE damage move and Dream Hammer was solid enough once she finally picked it up. Not to mention Healing Dance/Magical Dance were still decent enough supports whenever I felt like controlling other PCs. Should have probably just kept controlling Mavelle but meh ...

T'nique- Possibly the most "there" of them all! Joined too late to really make an impression either way other than that he seems like a bit of a smart ass >.>

In game - Never used 'im <.<

Welch- You know ... I know Welch is supposed to be entertaining and funny or something and ok some of it *was* funny ... but some of it was just disturbing >.> Especially that chuckling sprite ... *flees*

In game ... words cannot describe this.

Final party winded up as Pericci, Mavelle, Millie and Ilia with Pericci being my highest at L69 vs the final boss. Both the big demon baddie and the space flea as well as the Crimson Shield before hand turned out to be quite epic battles which caused resets until I found something that worked. Fun. Definitely felt it was worth it for the ending FMVs/etc though.

**

Everyone's various shades of Light/Middle in the DL assuming no item creation I think except Roddick who gets Heavy for having the broke that is Good Luck Charm as well as picking up powerful swords end game >.>

Overall thoughts remain the same as from my initial impressions. Fun romp of a game and probably a lot more fun if you just break it into littly bitty pieces right of the bat. Maybe.

Game can probably be either as short or as long as you want. I completed it within twenty five hours and that was with a lot of back tracking for private actions, I imagine getting the best gear for/doing the arena with everyone adds quite a bit to that too =-)

[Scar]

League of Legends

Level 10 now. I'm focusing my mastery points in offense for the most part. I guess I could adjust them to each different hero I play with at the time, but....lazy.

I find that I enjoy playing with Ashe, Warwick, or Nunu as of right now. I have 3200 IP points saved up, and thinking of collecting enough for Twitch who cost 6k or so to unlock.

My wins/losses are pretty even as well. Good thing no one else can see how many Ls I have!

[Cotigo]

KotOR:  Up to the first planet of the endgame.  Should have seen the ZOMG twist coming for a while but I didn't.  Incidentally, it makes the whole Korriban section way more entertaining.  Well, either that or being Dark Side and using this section to beef up on the evil (especially since my white guilt tricked me into getting a bunch of light points in Kashyyyk), which was way more entertaining than I'm sure the light side path of Korriban would have been.   

Right now, team is Chesthair Ey Arthr running around stunning and killing everything with magic, HK-47 on ranged duty and Julianned Fries melee attacking.  I briefly considered taking Carth instead since he is a waaaaaay better built character than Juliananeszxxx but he's also a total fucking wanker so fuck that.

Incidentally, I wish I had known that Force persuade was just an independent feat and not a bonus to the persuade skill, so I wouldn't have wasted my last feat with Chesthair Eyyyyy Arthr but the game's kind of crumpling to the power of the darkside, so I'm not too sure it matters. 

[Hunter Sopko]

DQVIII- Jumped back into this after a break. Prince Charmles was suitably hilarious. Sad part is that his plan was kinda sound until he decided to trade for that fake one. Poor Medea. Finished with that part. Just scouring the map for stuff/alchemizing/leveling before the Dark Ruins.

[Yoshiken]

BoF4: In some random ruins finding some item for what can only be a horrible stereotype of the Chinese so that I can reach the capital. Ershin is still tearing shit apart with Quake/Blizzard, and Nina's healing is godly. Which is why they're spending most of their time in the back to restore MP. I still find the battle system weird, but mostly good. Ershin is still awesome. Tee-hee-hee.

[Fudozukushi]

WoW: Exalted with every Northerend faction except Ashen Verdict and Frenzyheart.  But I have mercenary so ha!

[Anthony Edward Stark]

Ilia- I still thought of Mirage when I first starting playing. At least on the surface i.e they both have similar equipment/battle styles, they both like their drink and they both are a team with their superiors (Mirage/Cliff, Ilia/Ronyx) However yeah there is definitely more to Ilia than Mirage, at least that we get to see. I'm not sure that's such a good thing though >.> Her bitchiness to Phia was out of line unless I'm missing something, hell Ronyx wasn't even there and while her reactions over the other women in the party and Ronyx were at least understandable ... yeah. Kick ass in the final FMVs though and a good enough person at heart =-)

Also? Claude's mom.

[Ultradude]

BoF5 - Got, in tunnels fighting spiders with the full team. Throwing meat at spiders has never been a more effective combat strategy.

[Meeplelard]

Ilia- I still thought of Mirage when I first starting playing. At least on the surface i.e they both have similar equipment/battle styles, they both like their drink and they both are a team with their superiors (Mirage/Cliff, Ilia/Ronyx) However yeah there is definitely more to Ilia than Mirage, at least that we get to see.

Much like Ninian is DEFINITELY Roy's Mom, cause Nintendo totally confirmed it?

...oh wait...

[Dhyerwolf]

Everyone's various shades of Light/Middle in the DL assuming no item creation I think except Roddick who gets Heavy for having the broke that is Good Luck Charm as well as picking up powerful swords end game >.>

No item creation=Ronyx's low 2HKO is going to get some kind of crazy boost. That said, without item creation, everyting but Roddick is still some sort of Light or Middle anyways.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Ilia- I still thought of Mirage when I first starting playing. At least on the surface i.e they both have similar equipment/battle styles, they both like their drink and they both are a team with their superiors (Mirage/Cliff, Ilia/Ronyx) However yeah there is definitely more to Ilia than Mirage, at least that we get to see.

I thought the remake -did- confirm it?

Ilia- I still thought of Mirage when I first starting playing. At least on the surface i.e they both have similar equipment/battle styles, they both like their drink and they both are a team with their superiors (Mirage/Cliff, Ilia/Ronyx) However yeah there is definitely more to Ilia than Mirage, at least that we get to see. I'm not sure that's such a good thing though >.> Her bitchiness to Phia was out of line unless I'm missing something, hell Ronyx wasn't even there and while her reactions over the other women in the party and Ronyx were at least understandable ... yeah. Kick ass in the final FMVs though and a good enough person at heart =-)

Also? Claude's mom.

Much like Ninian is DEFINITELY Roy's Mom, cause Nintendo totally confirmed it?

...oh wait...

I thought the remake -did- confirm it?

The Welch ending, yes. It's like Laguna being Squall's dad.

On the other hand, it's not like Ninian being Roy's mother because that would make Roy 1/4 dragon, and they didn't redraw Ninian to make her look exactly like Roy, like they did with Ilia.
