You want to play Xillia on Jude's route first, some story events in Milla's don't make much sense if you haven't seen Jude's for context. Yes, it's dumb, and I don't quite get why they even give you the choice on your first run.

You know, TF2 IS Free-to-Play on Steam.

I play it sometimes too, though it's been awhile.

Technically they aren't but that also depends on other choices you make, so doing them ASAP is probably the best idea!

I could go more in depth if you want to, but that would probably involve spoilers and I dunno if you want those.

I played as an infiltrator and if it wasn't for ammo I would have probably just kept on sniping through the entire game, so the ammo system makes sense to me. But I don't know how they kept you from doing that in the first game since I was a vanguard there.

Some of the loyalty missions are great, others are okay, I guess it's kind of the same as the recruiting missions. Lair of the Shadow Broker might be my favorite mission in ME2 though.

I wasn't a big fan of the first either, but it gets a pass from me since it's probably still better than just picking the choices in a digital comic. I love ME2 though. I never really ran out of ammo but then again I play on normal so what do I know. And no Wrex or Liara on the Normandy is unfortunate, but they should still be around! (if you didn't kill Wrex, but who would do that anyway)

and I guess for some reason your initial human squad members are never that great. I did like Jacob and Miranda better than Kaidan and Ashley, but even then they are not nearly as interesting as some of the alien squad members.

Oh hey you're playing through the Mass Effects too, enjoying the second one?

lawl kaidan, dude didn't even survive Virmire in my game

I guess I should clarify that I've still been enjoying it since it's hard for me to dislike a VN in general. Just don't really care about the drama and think some of it's stupid.

I think I'm almost done Aeka's route already. Just following the guide's order.

I really liked the comedy at the beginning but the route has not been very good. I didn't care about Aeka being bullied since 1. she wasn't doing anything to try to stop it and 2. she's enabling the bullying by being a complete pushover. Realistic maybe but just doesn't make a good character trait in this case since it makes her pretty hard to care about. Then she doesn't act shy at all in front of Kouhei because... I don't know. Inconsistent writing I guess. Irritating and not realistic. Then the most random H scene of all time. Then she threatens to kill herself unless he goes out with her? I don't even know what the reader's supposed to think about this. Just feels like it's drama for the sake of drama and it's been really rushed. Feels like all this stuff happened before getting the chance or reason to care about the characters. I hope I like the other routes more. Nekoko seems pretty interesting since she's probably a drug addict.

I restarted Xenogears only yesterday so not very far. Not even as far as I've gotten before but it's been years since I played it so I started it over.

In S, I'm doing the after stories first and am on Yukie's now. Already did Momoyo, Wanko, and Miyako. Miyako's was pretty sweet and the others have been good but about as good as the after stories of the first game, just a little longer. The common route was pretty good too. The comedy is still really good but the family dynamic and interaction aren't as good, mainly since there isn't as much focus on them with all the new characters.

She reminded me how I didn't really like hearing Lissa's Japanese voice in the early trailers of Awakening.... even though it's typical Kana Asumi.

But that is an odd thing to say considering how I liked her role as Sasami.

yeah, that's why i'm letting it slide! though i still think the 'don't you think there's something strange?'

'yes'
'no'

prompts are really stupid, lol.

EEH-HEHEHEHEEEH

Yes, I went to one over this past weekend.

Persona 3 was fun and I mostly enjoyed the challenge, except for some times where the game stupidly screwed me in battles. There were some good characters, hopefully P4's best characters can match up to them or do better.

Persona 4 is a lot like Persona 3 so far, so I guess about as much as I enjoyed that game!

That's quite a lot of PC games that you "acquired."

Ever considered throwing in Melty Blood into the mix?

Though your lack of progress in the P4 Arena story might indicate something regarding that...

Like hell I'm setting up wired connection on my PS3 again, that was a pain to connect in my house.
Stupid Sony not having ad-hoc work with wireless.

Besides I'm just going through the story to finally get it done, but none of my characters that are super high leveled and I'd rather not put on handicaps again.

Why don't we just fight in Persona 4: Arena instead?

ANY ONES THAT ARE IMPORTANT?

I ask because I actually started over and used my remaining 10 GRADE to skip the childhood.

I (and probably most people) like Covenant better. It doesn't quite have the creepy atmosphere the first one has which is why some people might not, but it pretty much improves upon everything else.

Oh and it doesn't have those wonderfully voice acted sequence like the sea mother's tale! shloop shloop shlooooop

Aww yeah, Shadow Hearts. Top tier RPG series, hope you're enjoying it!
