It's looking like 7th Dragon won't be localized, unless Sega has some strange surprise in hiding somewhere. And like to wait a year for their localization announcements.
[spoiler]I picked up Magical Starsign because of everyone here raving about it and plus my sister was curious about it. She put in a few hours and promptly said it sucked. It made me laugh. I haven't put my time into it yet but I will ... eventually.[/spoiler]
Finally started Devil Survivor and got to Day 3 yesterday. Difficulty so far is "loleasy" and the Auction I quite like ... sort of. It feels a bit contrived and, honestly, just a straight "here buy these" would've been nice as it would've saved me the like 2-3s it takes to find the sweet spot bid (~75%-80% the Buy price). Eh, whatever. Not that big of a deal. Story is interesting at least and gameplay is fun, even if I can sort of not pay attention during fights.
[spoiler]Though Day 3 is so much harder than Day 1-2, though not that much. Mostly because Keisuke, as a unit, is terrible

I haven't custom crafted anything for him yet and I have no idea what to do. I'm thinking getting some spells on him and keep two big burly demons to rape [s]him[/s] enemies but dunno. He's fast with meidocre Str/Mag and low Vit ... ugh.
Come on, when do I get Midori
Also, a game with a summoning program and I started following an anime with "MAGIC IS COMPUTER CODE" (Yoku Wakaru Gendai Mahou) yesterday ... at least I'm in the right mindset for this "technology."
So where's my COMP that can summon demons and compiling code to shoot swords?[/spoiler]

Really? I love Magical Starsign. Then again, I care a lot of "cute" shit like clever dialog and worlds inhabited by pottery >___> also, it's designed around using magic and let's face it that is the best part of any RPG anyway

Mmm...magic. I always felt like there was a noticeable jump in difficulty after getting the Fire Gummi, or maybe that's just me.
I never felt there was a definite sad piece of music in the game, though.

Finish Devil Survivor yesterday ([BAD END]) and replaying it now for another route (nearing Day 4 after a few hours). Quite frankly ... where's mah difficulty at? Pretty much a yawnfest as far as difficulty was concerned to be honest; gameplay and story made up for it but the game is really, really easy
Also...
[spoiler]Don't do Yuzu's route if you're remotely depressed. The game berates you for sucking at life and being a little bitch for 5 minutes during the Ending. At least you don't die, I guess though the game makes it seem like that would've been a better option than running like a little bitch.
Also, sad that there's no closure on MC x Yuzu, but I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. That was honestly one of my driving points as I played; come on romance sub-plot, not just the hints T.T I liked Haru more but still ... closure.
I'd imagine that a bunch of teenagers in that scenario would be fucking like crazy knowing they have 7 days ... ... fuck, I think that's the plot for every DS doujin huh. [/spoiler]
Most my play time was probably fusing Demons. Auction is a little tedious but after a few minutes with it you figure out how to exploit it to your needs. No compendium was a bit of an annoyance so having to re-level certain demons over and over and over again to get Passives for fusing / Mitamas was annoying as fuck. Magnetite for CMD Skills made a lot of fusing pretty much just "get passives, who cares actual skills place later."
Oh well. Loki Megidolaon raping this playthrough whee...hurry Day 7 let's go~

I still haven't touched DS (well, okay, I put it into a case but aside from that...) since his death ;-;
That and I, for some reason, decided to play PW: TaT again. Best of the three. I really want Ace Attorney Investigations/Gyakuten Kenji now. >,> Heh, I almost wrote Incestigations. Goooo, Edgeworth!
Oh, currently playing EO. :[ I remember now why I haven't played it in a while, too. I was on the floor where Iwaopeln was when FOEs ambushed me and killed me. >8 Didn't save then, too.

For what it's worth, DS spoilers (sort of)
[spoiler]Gin's route is the hardest so I wouldn't really suggest doing it first anyway. Plus you can't do it without doing a lot of Atsuro's events even if you do save him.
You do lose out on Kishin Take-Mikazuchi, who is a decent Physical Demon (assuming you can get Pierce onto him). Terrible resistance coverage though

[/spoiler]

It is ...
[spoiler]...but is also [BAD END] out the ass.
But yeah, I hate character death (especially if preventable) so my first run through saved everyone but I missed I think two events for unlocking two routes which was just sloppy play on my part.
I should've wasted less time on the pointless events like Honda, Yuzu, and Atsuro's 10Bit line
