FFVII Hardtype - Finished Disc 1, yay.

Yuffie's abysmal HP right now, boo.

Seraphic Blue - Currently in Ep15 going through some long ass mountains.

May I just say the following...

The whole sequence in the previous town I was in can GO TO HELL OH GOD I HATED THAT D:.

Let me set it up for you. Lake has to solo that entire part. Fan-freaking-tastic.

First fun part? A boss. Yeah. He's not insanely tough...except for when he charges up (Screen flashes red). He unleashes an attack that will basically own your ass if you don't defend against it. Guess how the first Game Over of the session occured? Yeah I didn't expect to get an attack in the face that did 1700 and KO'd my Lake (His max HP was slightly higher than that, but I was a bit damaged).

After that fight...it gets WORSE. Lake now has to fend off the boss's minions.

How bad is it?

Firstly, you get a chance to heal up/save/upgrade consumables before starting the gauntlet.

You then fight 2 minions, then 2 more, then another 2 minions, then THREE GODDAMN minions, and finally 3 more of them before this hellzone sequence is complete.

What can they do?

They can blind Lake, they can poison him, they do Firely for ~350 damage, and, if fire element is active on the field (Which it will be thanks to that fire spell), can do an attack that'll do like 600+ damage.

Lake has just barely above 1700 HP for me at this point in the game.

Oh yeah, they're generally fast enough that they will all go before you get a chance to move unless you stack stuff to boost Lake's speed.

Lake also can't cast Great Heal since he can only equip a lv2 Healing Magic sphere at best so you need a good stash of D-Great Heal Bottles (Heals 1000 HP).

Finally, the ultimate kick in the pants?

...No chances to heal up in between the minion slaugher once it starts. That means if you enter the next fight with Lake at 50% HP or less, you are probably gonna die.

I Game Over'd twice to this section before I said screw this, armed Lake with a Silver Shield to replace his Healing Magic sphere (and found out that nasty fire attack they do with fire element active is physical based), and finally got past the last battle.

I then realize the area I'm at decided to throw the creepy/disturbing dial up several notches.

You don't even want to know the profession of my new party member I acquired here :P.

Went ahead, new area with a team of 4 (Finally!), saved, went ahead...only to find I had to fight a boss and I wasn't at full HP/TP for everyone D:.

Lovely start to the fight when it opens with an attack that can induce Poison & Disease on everyone.

Other then that, this was surprisingly nowhere near the hell I just went through.

Expecting the next boss fight to be a dual boss fight and I'm gonna not enjoy that, ayup.

Playing Resonance of Fate, currently I'm up to Chapter 2. So far its been pretty fun, the battle system is the has the usual tri-Ace charm to it. The first boss though was quite... difficult.

I should probably get around to playing Xenoblade Chronicles as well... I have a copy of it sitting on office desk just waiting to actually be played =|

Still trying to place Icewind Dale. Still following a guide, but this time I decided to say 'Screw it,' and followed it to the letter; all are human, possible future multi-classing, and one elf for nightvision. What I did decide to be creative in is the character's backstories. Which I have decided to share.

Graeak Tarmikos, Paladin


Wandacaryn Pegason, Fighter/Druid


Davhand Wolfsbane, Fighter-Thief


Stokain Fletcher, Ranger/Cleric


Petnan Shieldheart, Fighter/Abjurer


Gurkhan Fiedlerson, Fighter/Conjurer

NO

Also, played Mario Kart 7 online all evening with a friend of mine. Final score was I came in before him 8 times and he came in before me 8 times. I came in first more than him, though.

^_^; Zamisk, where are you in the game, so that way I can determine for future posts if what I'm posting might be a spoiler to you. At least to be able to mark it for others and then say "but Zamisk safe" or something XD

Tch, tsk tsk. Really? I had SO much fun getting to and dealing with the 3rd Temple. 4th dungeon is so far my favorite (and yes, I figured it up, it is the fifth one that I just completed ^_^; )

... I get the feeling the sixth one is going to be a pain in the ass. -_-; Just getting to it so far is being a bitch.

Getting to the fifth was lots of fun... especially when I flumped the dowsing...


Also... at this point I would far more prefer Navi's companionship to Fi's. THE FUCKING DITZ IS ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS!!!!! To pop up and say "Hey, Master, I think you just made something move somewhere else, as already demonstrated by the beautiful cinema that just played out, but I have no idea where it is or how to get there." WHY THE FUCK DID YOU BOTHER ME THEN, BITCH?!!! "I am 90% certain that this is the way to go." ... so what about the other 10%... where the fuck are you getting these percentages anyways?!

Best part: I got stuck on how to get to a switch behind a door. I summon her and you know what he advice was: "Master, I think the thing you need to do next is hit the switch that is marked on the map." ... really? ... REALLY? .... NAH, I HAD NO IDEA!

You know, at least when Navi did the whole "Hey!" "Look!" "Listen!" thing it was SPOKEN without DIALOGUE to interrupt the FLOW OF THE GAME! and between her and Saria, they usually did hand out a few good tips. At least when Navi was summoned to explain a monster she could give its weak point and how to slay it. Half the time Fi can't even complete that role.

And if she reminds me one more time that my wii remote is going dead I'm going to throw a bomb at her... I dunno how but I'll figure it out!
