Note to self: do not play Birth By Sleep and Final Fantasy IX all weekend when you have a surprisingly large amount of work due Monday. It's not a good idea. Just don't do it ( Read more... )

So yesterday I started a playthrough of the NES version of Final Fantasy III. Everything's all good, all 8-bit and "lol this game is like 20 years old." Tonight I figured I'd play through getting new jobs at the Fire Crystal. First I have to beat a boss called Salamander. I do so with seemingly little difficulty. I mean, three of my four party ( Read more... )

So, 2010. It's been quite the memorable year, and one that I'm sad to see go. There are some years that I've just liked, previous ones being 2005 and 2008, and I think 2010 can join that list. It wasn't perfect, of course, but a lot of really great things happened. So I thought I'd just make a list of 2010 in review, divided by topic because hey I ( Read more... )

So I don't quite know where this fic came from. It started last night when I was reading some stuff involving Ellone and Raine and a little bit of Laguna and so I got into the mood of writing that whole family. And then this happened. Yeah. It was meant to be kind of shorter, but then it got longer, and I was actually going to make it longer and go ( Read more... )

What's this, another game completion? Yup, I decided to go "screw it" to all of the sidequests that I had left in Final Fantasy X-2 and finish it before I go home tomorrow, just so that fact that I haven't finished it wouldn't be looming over me for a month.

Once again, the number of this playthrough is asterisked because technically this was only my third full playthrough, but over the summer I did a playthrough during which I got to right before the end of disc three, and that playthrough was complete enough that I consider it to count for a playthrough. Since I never really got a chance to talk ( Read more... )

LAGUNA LOIRE IS GOING TO BE IN DISSIDIA DUODECIM. OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.

I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW OMG OMG AND I THINK MY ROOMMATE IS TOTALLY JUDGING ME RIGHT NOW BUT SHE KNOWS OF MY BOUNDLESS LOVE FOR LAGUNA LOIRE BECAUSE OF OUR FFVIII PLAYTHROUGH THAT WE'RE DOING.

(... never mind that I won't be able to play Duodecim unless my roommate gets it and ( Read more... )

So I just finished my playthrough of Final Fantasy X. Technically it was only my second time all the way through, but I have done two other almost-complete playthroughs so it could also count as my fourth. Hence the asterisk next to the "fourth" in the subject title.

I'm not going to say a whole lot about FFX right now because back in April I did a ( Read more... )

Well, this afternoon I finally beat Final Fantasy V, in one of those "it's about fucking time" moments. Here's the story: I started playing the Playstation version back in February. I played it until probably around April or May, and it was at that point when my life started to get really busy so I figured I'd hold off on it until the summer. Once ( Read more... )
