Nevermind

Screw feeling abandoned, I now feel replaced. Did I really mean that little to you, that you can just do that? Fuck. I hate my life. And Calc 1, which is unfortunately part of my life.

I have a new copy of Good Omens and some new Fruits Basket, and somehow this doesn't cheer me up at all -.-

PS. Although I asked Chris to be my Yuri for SH, as you described the game as 'not particularily intriguing' and thus I assumed you wouldn't want to cosplay it. He's not sure if he'll have time, though.

I offered to if you wanted me, and said as much. And by 'not particularly intriguing' I mean the ratio of interesting plot to really stupid gameplay (I maintain 'brute force' is not a valid boss-strategy any RPG should have) was such that if you had wanted it back, I wouldn't have been OMGdestroyed to mail it back to you. If you don't want it, then I'll probably start playing it again eventually when I'm bored enough to deal with really stupid boss fights, which is where I'm stuck. Which is more than I can say for KotOR, or MGS, or Goldeneye.

You never gave me a final answer, you gave me an "I'll play the game and see." Either way, though, I think I'd rather have a Yuri who actually enjoyed the game/likes the character.

And well, if you can't beat Dehuai (I assume it's Dehuai), your brute force isn't working very well, is it? ;)

Well, in the future, could you actually tell me these things, so they don't end up on my list?

Yes, it's Dehuai. And my brute force isn't very good because I am not Skuld, and actually believe in _strategy_.

Tell you what, that you didn't give me a final answer?

My point was that if brute force isn't working maybe you should be using _strategy_.

No, that you had someone else that was doing it.

I tried that too. Which means spending far too long leveling up, which I can't do because I'm low on health items and there isn't anywhere I can get them, I think.

I didn't the last time I talked to you.

What level are you? Which characters? Are you using the right element for Fusion? (One of the guards on the lowest level of the stairs on the screen with the boss fight in it is a store. You'll miss out on a lot if you don't talk to people.)

... Um. You don't mean the first of the two boss battles with Dehuai in a row, do you?

[identity profile] momijizukamori.dreamwidth.org 2005-08-30 05:26 pm (UTC)(link)
...I have no idea what you mean by that first sentence.

Yuri, Zhuzhen, and Margarte or however you spell it, who are the only three I can - don't remember the levels. I'm using the right element. I must have missed the guard I usually talk to everyone (mostly because in FFX, they give you free stuff!)

Which ever one is after the Badger Devil. Which I personally think is kind of a stupid evil creature - I mean, a _badger_?

(Congratulations, this is the most replied-to entry on my LJ)

The last time I talked to you, I hadn't asked Chris to do Yuri with me.

You must be really low level or doing something completely wrong, because Dehuai himself is like a mini boss fight. You've got a much harder one right after it, and I don't think you have time to save.

(I win...?)

[identity profile] momijizukamori.dreamwidth.org 2005-08-30 05:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah.

It's probably low-level or bad luck. And you can save, I think - I tried looking up some guides on GameFAQs.

(I guess.)

(Hooray!)

(Well, the fact that it was spent more or less arguing in a public space kind of diminishes the achievement.)
