Gamer thoughts.

+ Assassins Creed 2 done. SO HOW ABOUT THAT ENDING? Also, Subject 16 is love. Best part of the game was Cam Clarke, I'm not gonna lie. I think he's one of my favorite VAs now. He was astounding in this, really tore at my heartstrings.

+ Oh hay, I guess I can play Persona 4 again now, lol.

+ Am I that bad of a person for wanting very badly to play Bayonetta? I mean, HELLO. It was done by Clover Studio alumni and the DMC designers. And, you know what, yes, I am shallow at times and Bayonetta is hot. Though the Hair Thing freaks me out.

+ Was Repeat to Fade 3 really awful or something? :k-kinda sad: I don't think I'm obligated to have reviews, but after so many expressed excitement... I dunno. I'm confused that I really misstepped somehow. :sighs:

+ Anyway. There is no VA work in Metal Gear Ac!d! That's... more jarring than I ever expected. Also, movement is so fucking tedious. I'm so glad I love the visual style to pieces.

That's all for now. :3

Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I read (stalk? but not in a scary way!) your journal BECAUSE of your Repeat to Fade fics. I've just been avoiding posting in the MGS comm because I feel guilty for not having finished my Secret Santa fic yet, but now I feel guilty for letting my comments for your fic die in the crossfire, so I'll deliver them here.

Anyway, your story was AMAZING. Don't let the lack of comments get you down. I'm usually a lurker, and I suspect most readers are, but I feel compelled to tell you that your story is truly wonderful.

I tend to skim fics until they get to the "good bits," (interpret as you will) but from the first chapter I've read every word of RtF and loved it. I am insanely jealous of your descriptions; you have a wonderful balance between just stating what everything looks like, making it meaningful, and not making me feel like you're just setting a scene, that the descriptions really MEAN something.

I'm also in love with the weird/creepy dynamic going on between Snake and Cyber!Hal. The love scene was just... wow. I'm still pondering what Cyber!Hal meant when he asked Snake if he was "there" during the scene - there physically, or emotionally, or if he finally felt that Snake could love this version of Hal, too.

"Litanies of apologies" has also been stuck in my mind. Love that phrase; might have to steal it.

Why do I have the feeling this will end tragically? I'm going to miss this weird alter Hal when it's all over.

OIC. Good luck with finishing it. Challenges are killer.

Th-thank you for the thoughts! If only because some of them make me cackle evilly thinking of what's to come. Muhahaha. And so on. YOU WILL HATE/LOVE NEXT CHAPTER I THINK MAYBE HEH.

It will end tragically because I cannot write lulz so I do the opposite.

thankyousomuch for the thoughts

I have great fun playing MGA because I have to do all the voices. It is a delight and I recommend you try it (shut the door, though. The one time my parents have come in through all my years of voiceacting games, it was when I was 'playing' MGS:DGN and I was screaming 'OH YES!! OH YES!! MOAAAR!!')

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

why have none of the hot people in your icons shown up yet

I can't Dayter quite like the Dayter though. D8

waitwaitwait I thought the DGN had VA work? :if not, is so getting the original MGS1 instead of that:

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

The Japanese Bande Desinee 2 DVD had a version of the DGN with VAing.

Get the original MGS1. Just do it.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

why do you know these things, srsly

okay okay. I have a $20 credit for the PSP store. WHAT ELSE DO I GET FLY?

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

FF7.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

BESIDES THAT. I tried the game. I couldn't get into it. 8(

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

Try it again!

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

8| Maybe if I end up liking Crisis Core. Maybe.

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

Crisis Core is made of little references to FF7, you're doing yourself a disservice if you don't play FF7 first.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

8| You can't play it without knowing the more than the basics of FF7? fffff

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

You can, but

1) it'll spoil a MASSIVE thing for you. like, seriously, a HUGE plot twist. The fact that the main character exists is a spoiler, but let's not get into that

2) most of what makes Crisis Core fun are the little geeky refs to FF7, from NPCs to the way certain minigames are played. It verges on MGS2ish at times. It's made for FF7 fans, not non-fans.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

... :sighs: I hope I enjoy it anyway. I know you love FF7, but I found it impossible to get into. It was just boring to me. Maybe its because I didn't grow up playing it and in fact played FF8 before getting a copy of FF7... I never got the hype.

Now I feel like a failure as a gamer or something.

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

Don't. Hating on FF7 is the fashionable opinion now. You just need to turn your 'disinterest' up a few notches into 'I CANNOT STAND IT WHY IS IT EVERYWHERE' and whoohoo, you're a modern gamer!

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

Erk. Sorry. I have nothing against the game, I just Don't Get It, I guess.

[firefly99.livejournal.com]

I wasn't accusing you of hating it, I was saying the popular opinion is one of hating it. Sorry that didn't come across.

I played the Bayonetta demo at PAX, and fuck if it makes me a bad feminist, BUT SERIOUSLY. Gorgeous hot mcawesomeness lady kicking ass Dante style. I can't NOT play it ;__;
