Haha I'll live. I just wish it hadn't happened right now because I'll be hard-pressed to find time to redo it. Oh well. It's actually for the U of C lol. Funny you should have mentioned that to Maxine just now. It's good to know! Hey, sounds good, I hope you enjoy it there! Good times, good times.....

Holy shit. I just wasted an hour of my life filling out a stupid scholarship application that is due by the 1st, but I am leaving Saturday until the 4th, so it has to be done by then and I barely have time for anything before we leave, and I would have done it sooner but I couldn't figure out how t...

1. No, you don't receive your syllabus and course outline until AFTER you have signed up for the course (fuck sometimes you don't even know how your teacher is until you enter). I can see how this would be really annoying, and I'm thankful that the University I went to didn't do this. At University...

I play on Nightmare. I would die. A lot. x100. +2. The only reason I don't is that I've never liked the whole friendly fire thing. I always just found it annoying in DA1, so I play DA2 in Hard mode instead of Nightmare in order to keep that annoyance out of the game. Increasing the difficulty never...

Varric is stupid good. Disgusting amounts of Attack Speed%, Attack%, Damage%, Crit%, Crit Damage%? 120% damage on anything engaged? Archery damage being ridiculous? Jesus. And my Merrill has 200-some HP and converts 1 HP to 6 (7?) Mana. She's disgustingly ridiculous. She's also responsible for 95% ...

I'd pay good money for a working Bioware game. On Sebastian and Isabela though, I console'd in Royal Archer (and Archery) to Isabela since I wanted an Archer and didn't like Sebastian at first. But now I'm torn with which to use since I actually kind of like Sebastian (assuming he doesn't glitch ou...

Apparently, banging Isabela means that [hide]she overrides whomever you actually romance for the end-game[/hide]. And then Merrill just has issues out the ass on her quests Supposedly there's a pretty severe glitch with Isabella's Act 3 quest not starting, due to her not appearing in your house whe...

Plus, y'know, the whole time warping business with Merrill's companion quest. That's basically what I just slogged through over the past couple of days. Man what a headache. I've read that Isabella is about equally as bugged too. So basically they just made sure nobody could romance the girls witho...

It does not really bother me that much in games to see hunk males and slutty girls but, for some reason I cannot say the same for Movies or Tv shows. No I wont go into a berserk mode or anything like that. Though, I will mostlikely ask my friends: "really, that anorectic , breats size of a foo...

A warning for anyone thinking of buying Dragon Age 2 who hasn't yet... the last parts of the game are an absolute mess of glitches and bugginess. I seriously haven't seen a game this buggy for a long time. Actually, off the top of my head I think I can only recall possibly two other games that I've ...

I've been playing Dragon Age 2 a lot lately. Pretty good game, though there's some things I think Dragon Age Origins did a little better. So far I think I like DA2 better overall though, I think. Here's a quick rundown of some of the pros and cons, when compared to Dragon Age Origins: PROS + Much fa...

I'll be picking up Dragon Age 2 on my home from work today. Then it's time to see how funny/messed up reactions I can get the game's populace to give me this time around from being as reckless as possible, as usual. :)

I'm planning to do my usual routine and wait until the third game (Grey?) comes out before buying this one. I like Pokemon, but not that much that I have to have the first release of each gen. They kind of start to feel really repetitive to me too if I play them too often. Although I like what I'm h...

I liked the Dark Spire, but the gameplay gets terribly unbalanced toward the end of the game. I'll have to see how I handle that when I get there, I'm still not too far into the game just yet. Although most RPGs seem to get terribly unbalanced in some way or another by the end of them, especially a...
