Bloody Alice. Stupid Stupid Banshees!!
I hate Banshees, I really really do.
So I just start playing American Mcgee's Alice yesterday and stopped at this jumping puzzle because I was too damn tired to actually try to go across successfully that's a lie, it's a goddamn awful lie because I really wasn't able to get across
Now, the game is a very imaginative game. Kudos to Mcgee to thinking it up. AM's Alice is basically developed from Alice in Wonderland, but with just a darker theme. Alice had grown up (and apparently had become a brunette instead of blonde). This game is a third-person shooter game and we controlled Alice (YAY!) in a more messed up, downright creepy Wonderland. This is because after her parents' death, she blamed herself and was admitted to Rudledge Psychiatric hospital. Subsequently, Wonderland, which is tied to her own mind and imagination, now has Sewers, Lava Pools, Roses that spit spikes at you, and Card Guards that bleed everywhere when you cut them.
Oh, and Banshees. Never ever forget the banshees....flying piece of crap.
Okay, back to the jumping puzzles dilemma. So now, I decided to continue where I left off yesterday with it, and after like around 5 more times I finally did it, jumping for joy and stuff, and quick save it. When I got to the other side, effing BANSHEES showed up and I just plain SUCK at this game right now, so they killed me. Apparently, The stupid game didn't save, WON'T save, and I have to start over from Devil Alice scene, which I'm kinda ok with, but the point is that....
I HAVE TO GET OVER THAT JUMPING PUZZLE AGAIN!!!
And I'll tell you my friend, the jumping physics of this game is a load of crap, like if I hold the button to go forward too long, and Alice missed, she wouldn't catch the edge, and fall, OR just simply doesn't jump at all, in which case, I would just look like a retard maneuvering my character straight into the pit of bloody swirl and then have to wait for the jigsaw floor to come back again, which is just a complete waste of time.
Incidentally, you know why I couldn't kill the Banshee, like, AT ALL? Because I was idiotically swinging the mouse around to find that damn point (it's like this blue dot for you to target with, but so damn small) and the situation wasn't like "I couldn't find the dot in time," but "I couldn't find it AT ALL," and so I was just running around in circles to avoid the attacks, which I don't have to mention that I failed to, cus I died. I effing DIED...
I need to get my video game skills back.
I think a little 10 year-old me would be able to beat the current me without any trouble at all.....and that's just plain pathetic.
But well, the me before was a video game addict, and had the patient to go through with the game. ME right now, however, has a tolerance level for this kind of unproductive crap as little as Grimmjow. Yes, Grimmjow......I'm comparing myself with him, and that isn't saying much. That guy is the most hotheaded guy I know.
I love him though :3
