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

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

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

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

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.

... :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.

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!

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

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.
