(no subject)
Not much going on but I feel like typing in here. I kinda missed the days of typing long walls of text in here. I doubt this post will be super long and I will try to make it interesting.
It definitely feels like summer here in South Carolina. There have been a couple of times when it rained for a bit but it's has been mostly sunny and hot. I'm lucky that I have a job in which I work inside. The only time I go outside during the time I work is take out the trash. My job as janitor at the Citadel Mall is not the most exciting job in the world but I'm glad that I have it. It feels good when I am able to help someone out when they need it. The current schedule I have is a good one. I have enough days off to relax.
Gaming wise, I have been playing a lot of games in a lot of different genres in the past couple of months. If you follow me on Twitter, You probably saw a few tweets about finding blow up dolls and drug packages a couple of weeks ago. I don't have either of these items in real life. I was playing Saints Row The Third again. The game was recently made free for Xbox Live Gold members. It has a auto tweeting thing that will occasionally tweet out your progress in the game. I had set it up when I had the PS3 version but can't seem to turn it off. The community site for the Saints Row games is kinda broken. I spent a lot of time completing the main story again and adding more points to my gamerscore in the process. I also bought the season pass which gives my 3 add-ons to the game. I've completed the first 2 but I'm saving the third one for later. After Saints Row The Third, I played Call of Duty Ghost for a couple of weeks. I'm not good at FPSs so I will not go into detail on how much I sucked. After Call of Duty, I got inspired to replay Parasite Eve again. Here's the forum thread that got me inspired to play the game again. The posts made by gunbladeproxy in the thread are mine.

I am at the 4th day of the game . That is currently my progress in the game. Parasite Eve is a unique game in my opinion. It's a RPG set in a modern real world setting and not a fantasy world like other games in the genre. The main character, Aya Brea, has special abilities in the game that are similar to magic spells but are not magic spells in the traditional sense. Since the game is set in a modern setting, Aya uses guns instead of swords to attack the various creatures in the game. The creatures are genetic mutations of normal animals and not mythical creatures like dragons. The cutscenes of these transformations are still amazing. Both PS1 Parasite Eve games are on the Playstation Store as PSone Classics that can be played on your PS3,PSP,or Vita. I highly recommend both Parasite Eve games.
I got distracted from playing Parasite Eve by a MMO. It's not just any MMO. It's a Final Fantasy MMO. Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game set in the Final Fantasy universe. The currency in the game is Gil and your mounts are Chocobos. Like any other MMO, You accept quests from quest givers and kill a certain number of things to get experience points. Here is my character's profile in the game. I created a cat girl named Aya Mayer. It's a mash up of the names Aya Brea and Re-l Mayer.

The cool thing about this game is that you can be multiple classes without switching characters. My main class is Gladiator but I can also be a Blacksmith or a few other classes when I want to. The coolest thing is that all 3 platforms in which the game is on run on the same servers. This game is available for PC,PS3,and PS4. I have played a couple of times with a friend who is playing it on the PS4 while I have been on the PS3. There is a new patch that adds a lot of cool things but I haven't downloaded it yet. I have gone back to playing Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate again. If you have been paying attention to my Twitter or Facebook, You are aware of this. I have been uploading a ton of my DOA5U replays on my Youtube channel and screenshots to my Facebook. I have taken also posted some of these screenshots to my Virtual Photography Tumblr. I have been mainly using the newly released character, Phase 4. She's a clone of Kasumi but has a few different moves. Like the previous DLC character, I have bought the bundle that includes the character and 5 of her costumes. I am slowly improving in using Phase 4 in online matches.
I guess I better wrap this thing up before I bore you all to death. That is what I have been up to lately and I will try to type up entries in here. Twitter and Tumblr are good for short updates on things but Livejournal is good for long entries like this one. I will also try to update the look of this page. It has been years since I have played Halo Reach.
