Piano and detox.

Apr 15, 2009 04:40

That’s what I’m doing tonight. Staying up all night to re-regulate my sleep cycles and being peaceful. The rain and the fact that it’s actually getting warmer overnight insist upon it. I’m currently learning (almost done learning, working on actually playing correctly) Regina Spektor’s Someday’s, because that’s kind of just how tonight feels. ( Read more... )

piano, yoga, chris, writing, sidney, regina, sleep, video games, rain, maree, evgeni, penguins, hockey, shopping

Sounds fun! <3 Hope you're feeling better.

And a note about the Star Ocean games, well...they all have bad voice acting -_-;;.

Star Ocean on the PSP or the 360/PS3? I hear they're both pretty good. Voice Acting in a lot of RPGs/Anime-esque games is always terrible. I think it's a written rule or something.

Anywho... you should check out the "Henry Hatsworth" puzzle game. It's part platformer and part puzzle game. Very intriguing stuff.

On the 360. It looks pretty good, from what I've seen.

But no you guys. This isn't, "Oh, we were on a budget so we couldn't afford very good voice actors" bad, or "Put next to Hironobu Sakaguchi's stuff, all other voice acting looks bad", or "The script was a little weak" bad, this is "No one knows what the hell is going on, the character's can't pronounce there own games, not only is the inflection and emotion poor, it's in all the wrong places, the rejects from an episode from Dora the Explorer could have done better than this" bad.

I'm used to playing RPGs with weak spots in the art and development department. I'm wondering if this isn't a case of, "Our game is so good in other areas and everyone knows our franchise that when it game down to something we thought was insignificant because the script was otherwise okay we DIDN'T EVEN TRY."

It's baaaaaaaad. It's 'How are you gentleman all your base are belong to us' bad'.

/rant

I will check out that game.

Okay, you know how babies are born knowing how to swim?

Well, babies are born knowing that people with certain birth dates are winners. It's usually just that only the people that are born between those dates remember, and go on to become the world's youngest captain of a hockey team, or MVP of the league, or you know, me.

It's all so clear now.
