「明日があるさ。」

I can't believe the last time I posted here was in 2015.

tbh I was seriously tempted to hold off on posting until November to make it an even 2 years.

Ah, well!

I'm pretty bummed to hear about Satoru Iwata's passing. I heard he was ill before, but didn't know it was that bad. I was shocked when I read about it. I loved seeing him in Nintendo Directs and reading Iwata Asks. He seemed like someone you could have a laugh with.

Leaving this with a GameCenter CX vid, since Arino has been retweeting all kinds of Iwata-related things on his Twitter. This episode is a fun watch. c:

I have a RL friend who does the texting equivalent of "[Character] is standing there, come talk to him!" tags and it's starting to really bug me.

Like, he'll text: "There's a game for the Vita."

And I'm expected to respond — which is fine, that's how conversations work, but I mean. He doesn't even give straight answers after that. I have to drag it out of him.

Him: "There's a game for the Vita."
Me: "What is it?"
Him: "An RPG."
Me: "What's it called?"
Him: "Title Fantasy: The RPG."
Me: "Sounds cool."
Him: "It doesn't look that good though."
Me: "Oh, that's too bad."
Him: "But it's for the Vita."

And at this point, I'm like... get to your point, dude. Why do I have to pull responses from you when you're the one who wanted to talk about it in the first place? Why couldn't you have just said the name of the game and your impression of it right off the bat so we could just go from there? Why are we circling the topic instead of diving right into it?

He just sent me another 'bait' text and I'm currently letting it sit there to see if he's gonna follow it up or if he expects me to draaaaag it out of him again. I realize this is petty as hell, but it's been happening so often lately and I'm too irritated to bother with it right now.

I was browsing through a friend's Facebook album and saw a picture of him with someone. At first glance, I thought it was his mom.

Turns out, it's his current girlfriend. Whoops.

Just another one of those mistakes that make you think, "Thank goodness no one else is here and can read my mind."

Also, still looking for topics to talk about for the meme! Even if you've suggested something already, go ahead and suggest another!

Posting Meme

Mon, 15 Dec 2014 01:00:44 GMT

SO I GUESS there's some kind of December meme going around that's supposed to encourage use of your DW journal. (Hence why I was trying to spruce this thing up a bit, lol.) It sounds interesting, and I'd like to use my DW more, so I want to give it a shot. I'm a little late to doing it in December, so I'm just gonna start it... I dunno, maybe in the last week of the month? Sooner? Depends on how many topics I get.

Anyway, the instructions are as follows:

Pick a day and give me something to talk about! Video games, computer games, uh... cellphone games, board games, DWRP games, pixel dragon games... or something other than games. Animals, writing, food, terrible life advice, etc. are all fair game. Anything. Whatever you can think of, I'll post about it.

And feel free to claim more than one day! (I don't think I know enough people to do a one-day-per-person thing anyway, ahah.) Any blank spaces will probably just be me babbling about Guilty Gear or something, so please give me something else to talk about.

...unless you want me to talk about Guilty Gear. Then we're good, lol.

I decided to dig up my DW and revamp it for kicks, but it involved me going back and fixing the broken icons on the most recent two pages.

Those entries spanned about, what, maybe one or two years? It's not like I was super young or anything, but I still feel a bit of a gut punch when reading them. Or at least a wince. Something like that.

Also, I have no idea what is going on with these tags. They are out of control.

FF7 for the PC (again)

Wed, 04 Jul 2012 23:40:07 GMT

...is apparently a real thing? I'm kinda surprised.

Not much data on it other than achievements, a cash shop, and cloud saves. I am very curious what the achievements are, the cash shop seems kinda useless to me, and cloud saves just makes me LOL for stupid, stupid reasons.

I do wish we could get info on whether the translation is redone/straightened out for this version. I'd buy it just for that, honestly. (FFT's new translation was so worth re-purchasing. I have no regrets.) If it's not fixed, then... eh. I'm not sure.

GOG.com

Sat, 02 Jun 2012 09:24:26 GMT

I'm super glad GOG.com exists, seriously. I've heard of a lot of these games, but never played them as a child because our family was more console-oriented. (I was probably too young to play anything other than Lemmings or Dr. Brain games anyway.) I like having the chance to play these games and check out what people are talking about. I just nabbed the Wing Commander series to give it a shot. Also Mark Hamill is in the games too, and I wanna see that.

I'm thinking about trying to get more recent games on GOG too. I don't know if anyone else has the same problem, but Steam can really clog up my computer sometimes. I don't have a gaming optimized laptop, so just opening Steam can be a trial for me. Games that are DRM free are such a turn on.

I really should be reformatting my hard drive, but I'm hesitant. My laptop originally came with Windows Vista installed, but I received a free upgrade to Windows 7 and used that. I don't know where I put the upgrade disk anymore, though. I'm afraid of reformatting and ending up with Vista again. That would really, really suck.

I'll have to go hunting for it again sometime.

I don't usually post things like this, so pardon me in advance for that. I really liked the message behind this video, however.

WARNING: Surgery scars. She warns ahead of time, though. I do recommend at least minimizing the video and listening to the audio as an alternative.

There's another interesting documentary recently released on the topic. I'd like to see this one.

I was watching a show with my mom, and heard some howling from audience members who were cheering.

My immediate thought was, "Armaros! ;A; "

And then I was distracted from the show.

I hope everyone had a good New Year Day!

I don't really have any New Year's resolutions or anything, but I do need to write or draw more things this year. I'm getting really out of practice. :T

I ended up spending quite a bit of money on the Steam Christmas sale, but the game I'm looking forward to playing is Darksiders. It looks pretty fun, it's another one of those games that uses Biblical characters and whatever. I hope it plays well enough on my laptop.

The one game that took me by surprise this sale was The Binding of Isaac. I've played Super Meat Boy and didn't like it so much, probably because it's ridiculously challenging. But Isaac is a lot more fun to play, even though it's still stupidly difficult. I just like experimenting with all the pills and stuff.

I also finally got LIMBO. That game is super atmospheric, wow. Kinda freaky, too. (THE SPIDER. THE BRAIN BUGS.) The design style just adds to the whole thing. Love it.

My goal is to finish these games, damn it. I need to stop starting games and leaving them hanging. I'm pretty sure the last game I finished was El Shaddai. 8|a

MY DOG IS AFRAID OF BATMAN.

We started up Arkham City and she froze up once she heard the bass. Then, when Batman appears and flares out his cape, she ran hiding behind the couch.

IT IS SO CUTE she's giving me this wide-eyed look right now. Like she's saying, "Why are you laughing? Make it go away!!"

Ah, my day has been made.

Hello, all! I am just shooting a reminder that I'm trickster over at Dreamwidth. All my entries imported over there just fine, so now you can't even tell I haven't used it in a year! Aha.

I didn't import over comments, though. I think comments come over as OpenIDs and I wasn't sure if it was kosher for me to do that without anyone else's permission. So, commentless entries. But entries nonetheless!

And now for something completely different.

...therefore, I shall post.

Ky Kiske again, but this time it's a coloring of a doujinshi panel. Image. Box. Thing.

Yeah. I'm on my Winter Break, can't you tell? 8D

Uh. Not very big images, but I was using a tutorial and managed to mess that up a little and ended up winging it halfway through. I did learn a new way to use the brushes, so that was cool! It's just a little time-consuming. It'd probably help if I actually programmed commands into the tablet, though. /idiot

( Colored edit on the left, original on the right. )

SHADING IS STILL MY NEMESIS and I also totally half-assed the background, if it wasn't obvious. ONE DAY I WILL MAKE A DECENT BACKGROUND but not now.

i'm not even a morning person what is this

Wed, 01 Dec 2010 16:33:21 GMT

Blog surfing again -- it's possible that I'm just horrifically late in learning about this, but there's a Black Rock Shooter game in the works? What's that supposed to be about? I don't remember the OVA being really deep or anything, so. :\a

EL SHADDAI POSTCARDS this is awesome and so hilarious. I love this goddamn meme so much it's just laksjdflaskdjf. Also LOL I want that Enoch card. SO BEAUTIFUL. そんなポーズで大丈夫か？

EDIT: Caved in and downloaded them. I am such a sad little person.

The whole KAT-TUN plagiarism thing made it to the forums, of course. I think my favorite comment there is KAT-TUN 「歌ってみた」. That whole ordeal is rather unfortunate, so I've been trying not to get into it.

Which games to remake? Personally, I don't really see a point in remaking FF8 or FF9 -- not because I dislike the entire second half of FF8 or anything, but it's just kind of redundant. I imagine you could probably add voices, but otherwise the characters were in proportion when wandering around towns and the FMVs are still good looking imo. Not much to do with it.

FF7... you know, despite my apprehension, I'd probably buy it if they remade it. So I probably shouldn't say too much.

That survey is kinda suspect, anyway. EHRGEIZ ARE YOU SERIOUS isn't that called Dissidia? Did anyone buy it for any other reason other than lol FF7 characters? Was it popular in Japan? Do people want to see Sephiroth's hair flowing magically in the wind as he facedives into the sand in order to grab the flag? Because if there's one thing Dissidia is lacking, it'd be beachtime fun. DEAD OR ALIVE HAS IT, SO CAN DISSIDIA. Where's my all Final Fantasy cast volleyball minigame?! >T

Personally, I think it'd be really rockin' to see a Suikoden (I or II) remake on the PS3 with awesome 2D graphics. Maybe like Odin Sphere or something. I'd really love more games like that.
