To save your game, pray to cock god

You know what, I'm so disappointed at P4A I can't even. I can't believe they turned Yu into a big douchebag and as much as a homophobe. The bathhouse episode was pretty bad, but like Kanji did, I assumed he'd accept this and get over it. So imagine when the camp pseudofiller has him saying those things to poor Kanji. UGH!! I was enjoying this anime, really! I liked how they handled Yukiko and Chie, for instance. Rise is going good, if we ignore Yu being too present because I can't see his fucking face anymore.

Fuck it. The game's MC is the only protagonist that exists, and he's pretty tolerant and cool, and I consider this OOC travesty just an icon fodder. The main reason I'm not dropping this? I want to make pretty icons for my RP account and they still haven't gotten to Teddie's alter form. Whatever.

Hmmmmmm, let's go with happier things. I'm giving my 3DS good use. Ocarina either is easier than I remember, was watered down a bit, or I've played this too much and I remember more than I thought. It's not a bad thing! I like easy because I'm a cheap idiot! And the sooner I finish, the sooner I get Master Quest mode.

Abyss goes slower, but then again this is an RPG with a lot of shit to do and characters to grind. OMG, I had forgotten that Ion was such a cute nice kid ;A; Pre-Akzeriuth Luke gets more unbearable the more times you play this game, too. Saint Binah is a gorgeous town and I wish I could go back later. Why are your cities so beautiful, Malkuth?

Oh, and my brother bought Skyward Sword! It's the special edition with the golden wiimote motion plus and the 25th Anniversary orchestra CD. I finally tried it today for a bit, and my arm was tired before I had even saved my bird. If can't even imagine how my bro can stand it, considering he's a lefty and he's having problems to adapt to the controls. Maybe that's why he hadn't played in a couple of days? Maybe he's ragequitting? I don't blame him, Nintendo did a dick move by alienating the left-handed clients.

I still have to write a mythology fanfic for a challenge. I have decided the story, but I haven't felt inspired yet with my family being pests or "improving" my mood. Nnnng.

So, how are you guys doing?

I was really disappointed in how it was handled too.

It's so bad, it makes the problematic parts of the game look good by being not-this-horrible. That says a lot.

Games! I wish I had time to play games!

I don't have time for console games! I can sorta get away with portables because I can pause them without wasting electric power, take them in my pocket, and/or multitask while I wait for something else.

Ahhh, I see. Still, I don't really have time for portable games, especially if they require any kind of intense effort, like long boss fights or careful save point planning. I pretty much do crossword puzzles on my DS now D:

Oh, dear. I was going to wait and see if it came out on a disc format, but it sounds like they just amplified one of the parts of that game that I was most uncomfortable with (other party members' reactions to anything slightly queer). If the "player character" is approving of that in this iteration... ugh.

Yeaaaaah, I'd definitely pass if I were you. It's not only uncomfortable, it even sounds worse than the game. So not looking forward to Naoto's treatment if Kanji got this much shit.

I'm playing Dragon Quest VI (that one and DQIX are the only games I own that I haven't finished) and getting a bit frustrated with. On the one hand it's fun that it hasn't got a straightforward plot, but on the other I rarely know what the hell I'm doing :/ I'd like to get Kirby Mass Attack to blow some steam, but it's too expensive atm :( At least I'm getting the new Layton for Christmas~

The Dragon Quest series has always been too massive for me, but besides that? I never knew what to do with old Squeenix RPGs where you can do whatever the shit you want. I prefer to be limited and dragged by the plot, that x character is always y class and so on. Which is why I don't understand Western RPGs but this has nothing to do with handheld video games :'D It's been ages since I've played a Kirby game, now I kinda want to.

If I could I'd totally lend it to you ;;
