I just beat Gungnir for the PSP. The ending I got was disappointing... but not entirely so. When faced with decisions in the game, I keep choosing the options that are in character or pragmatic, and not the "right" options that lead to the best ending. It's ironic that, in this way, RPGs don't reward you for role playing.

Edit: I've been reading a guide and now I think that I did make enough "right" choices for the best ending. My only mistake was that a certain character got knocked off the map once during a battle. Also, the best ending is almost the same as the ending I got.

Holy shusk, 7th Dragon is getting another game! And here I was worried - I heard imageepoch went under. Sega's coming out with this though, which makes total sense.

So hyped. So glad this series is getting another game!

Some years ago, I wondered about how that Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem game would be.

Instead of demons we got Fire Emblem characters. And they look more like Persona. Well, I already had my high expectations for this, so I think I'll like that.

Speaking about Fire Emblem, kinda off topic but...

Damn... that artist is really good. If I was looking for inspiration, I just found it.

Speaking of Fire Emblem, this will now be a thing come April 2016:



Suffice it to say she's a beaut. The details are exceptional, Cordelia's posture is proud, and her outfit's so gr- but then you see the price.

That fucking price.

Oh, beautiful indeed. *-*

As for the price... ouch...

Evo can finish already for this year. Nothing can top this:

By far the EVO moment by fucking far.

[Yui]

Damn... winning a round just to get owned by flawless victory on the next... well... shit happens. :p

[DeviantProtagonist]

So they've cancelled Silent Hills for this oh-so-much better and improved one. Okay.

For what it's worth, people aren't wrong about Konami milking the franchise now~.

Jam fans, your prayers have been answered! Ooh, and she'll share Kirarin's VA nii! I'm so happy-happy!

Randomly came across this upcoming sci-fi adventure survival game that seems really interesting:

No Man's Sky

Never thought I'd see a game with an open universe too vast to fully explore in an entire lifetime.  That's...incredible.

Dragon's Dogma Online! I don't know if anyone's actually hyped for this game or anything, but it looks like they made it so that it could possibly make it overseas.

I noticed that it detected what keyboard layout I was using and modified its controls to match, and I know European keyboard formats are different than the ones typical in Japan or North America. Normally, you'd be using WASD to walk around, and that usually throws me for a loop, especially if I can't change them. But, I noticed I was walking around just fine using my WARS keys (the Colemak equivalent). Sometimes the key help text corresponds to what's on my keyboard, sometimes it doesn't, but it's remapped no matter what it says.

You can't change the basic keys on DDO... which I think is horrible and they need to add it, but somehow it's less of a big deal for me now.

Yay double post!

Just beat the extra dungeon in 7th Dragon 2020-II. The 9th floor boss and the last extra boss (10th floor) apparently have patterns I haven't seen yet - they were so much of a pain I had to end things as soon as I could. It took me... about five tries to beat the last extra boss, and I fired out all my EX as soon as I saw his near death pattern starting up. I still don't know what he does for it, but the round I took him out, it was totally make or break. No one was on defense at all.

Final party was Trickster (dagger), Idol, Destroyer. Everyone was level 81, but I had done a little class changing beforehand, so they had some small stat bonuses. Maybe equal to around 83 or 84 when you add those in.

Now it's time for the next game in October! Gotta decide who I'm gonna preorder from.

Well, apparently Atelier Sophie and the other game gust were working on (Damned if I remember the name) got postponed. Sophie will come out sometime in November, due to bugs.

Well, it's Gust, who seem to have made it a habit to release games that can brick consoles, so fixing their code is probably a good thing in this case.

It's just as well since well, everything that's happened to me in the last month. Does mean when I finally settle back in (Tuesday is when  we can pay up for the place) and I can get some furniture, I'm going to ENJOY this, and I'm going to enjoy making the alchemy system bend over and call me mistress.

... Yeah, lack of gaming for me has been driving me a little nuts.
