13, I found Penelo to be the easiest to like out of many of the Final Fantasy heroines. :d I mean, she just seemed normal, and wasn't too annoying (from what I've seen) ~ Admittedly though, my favorites in Final Fantasy XII, excluding Penelo (she must be #2...) are Vaan, Balthier and... Larsa and that... Judge... dude... in... hot... armor. I haven't played in a long while :(

Vossler, why art thou _____? :(

16. Where is that fanart from? D: I waaaant!

30. I remember seeing an article that mentions that in passing - the examples given weren't much though. It looked like it was just a cover and a very generic pose... but seeing that kind of brings some D: in me. A part of me wants to say it's better than blatant plagiarism of another mangaka, but it's still tracing and that's still... bad, no?

41. I'm curious about that game now ._. Name that fandom, please :D

It's Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
I remember playing a Baldur's Gate... I OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T PLAY THE SECOND ONE THEN! D:

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
You obviously should!


... Because Anomen is one hot hunk of cleric. He gets adorkable when you get him as your boyfriend.


D: I miss playing the game now. I need a new copy. So... I can lust after Anomen.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] astrakiseki.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
Oh fucking god, don't remind me on how annoying it was to go looking for a new copy after my brothers and I killed (as in played it way too much) our first copy of that game.

And I recommend the mods, especially a specific flirt pack. Because asking Anomen to play the Helmite and the Wench can be SO amusing. >3

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
We've got like, an old discount video game store in the mall down the street, I might go searching... >>


Oh god, that'd be great. Back when I first had it, I didn't HAVE internet, I just had ... the regular game. D:

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:47 am (UTC)(link)
...it's available for the PS2, no? D:

I played the first one in the PS2 D;

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, that's a different Baldur's Gate. That's Dark Alliance, you're thinking of.


Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn is a 90s PC game, I believe, as is Baldur's Gate.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
O_O I- I never played the PC version.

But after seeing that secret, I absolutely want to ._.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Its okay, its fairly old. BG:DA isn't like, a remake of BG, they're all different storylines set in the same world, except like, BGII follows your stuff from BG. So like, if you had a BA character, then started playing BGII, stuff would transfer. I think. Its been ages.


And you should. D: Anomen was fun.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
The pirate in me wonders if it can be downloaded from somewhere. *coughs*

Love the time when PC games didn't require an uber expensive PC :/

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
...If you find it, link me. >>


Yeah. My computer can't handle them fine, fancy games. Its like, almost 5 to 8 years old. Doesn't even have a DVDrom thing and almost all games require that now.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
If I find like tonight, I would. 8D

Wow, and I thought my computer was ancient. :-/ Before games for the PC were mostly adventure games though, no? And they usually focused on story rather than graphics.

I knew we couldn't afford upgrading the PC all the time to be able to play the l33t games coming out for it so we instead invested in consoles... 8D It's a good decision~

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
xD Good luck then? :P

Yeah, or like, DnD style RPGs, like how Baldur's Gate is. Also, then again, back then, those sorts of graphics were cutting edge, so...


-nods- I primarily get consoles myself, though this computer really does need an update. D:

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe it would be better to get the legit copy in this case. Do I want to risk downloading a 3.1 GB pack for this? :-X But so says the person who downloaded a PC game from questionable Chinese websites...

Have a Wii? :d

You probably do :/ I mean, if you don't have a DVD ROM, then I sort of wonder now how big your HD is 8D

Re: 41.

[identity profile] derogative.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Probably. D: If I knew where my old copy was, I'd play it right now.

No. D: I still just have my PS2. I usually have to wait a few years after release until I can even think about affording a console.

Re: 41.

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
Ebay, my friend! Yush!

Mmm. That's a good choice, especially now. I think the beginning price for most of the third generation console games at release is like 59.99 too. :/ Too much; even if you can afford the consoles, the games would kill you every time.

I remember when our computer had that much GB. I think it was... three years ago. If you're not gaming, I guess it's not bad :D I hope you're not downloading anything much~

*downloads subbed anime like whoa*

13 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-01-17 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'm assuming you've played to where Vossler turns out to be a traitor and you have that boss fight with him?

Yeah I was sad when he left/died...

He did kick a lot of ass...I mean...really...

Yay someone else who likes Vaan (I really do, and I should have said "stripper" instead of "gigolo" ah well...)! A lot of people hate him...

Re: 13 OP

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Actually, I've played up to the part where Larsa suggests they go to Mt. Burmi Osace to crown Ashe queen. I got side-tracked gathering the Espers I can at that point, and leveling up my characters at the... underground place. I haven't played in months!

I find Vaan completely adorable. I certainly love him more than many of the recent Final Fantasy heroes. It could be subject to change, but he just feels more... natural, I guess. I mean, it's hard to explain, but I guess I like that, so far, he hasn't really stepped up into massive heroics and Basch and Ashe and Balthier and Fran still pretty much kick his ass. (Well, can't say that in my game though because he's the one with the highest level -_-; BUT STORYWISE, YES.)

The only thing I dislike, and not about it really, is when the game sort of IMPLIES Ashe/Vaan. I'm all, NOOOOO THANK YOU? D:

I was really upset with Vossler dying. :/ Even if I didn't appreciate his NP C tagging along, he was an amazing character. I somewhat ship him with Ashe too. I saw his logic, and in a way, I wonder what would have happened if Ashe agreed to him. It didn't look like he had any self-furthering agendas. :/

(Anonymous) 2008-01-17 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Oh wow...I'm a little bit beyond that but not much...I've gone through to get through Golmore Jungle...but then I just stopped doing that and started levelling and doing sidequests...

Re: 13 OP

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
The sidequests are the funnest part of FFXII~ I think.

Have you been to the Nabreus Deadlands? And that underground ruins.. not quite the mines yet...

8D I'm happy that I can defeat Entites now ;_;

Re: 13 OP

(Anonymous) 2008-01-17 02:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Nabreus Deadlands? Where are those? Beyond the Mosphoran highwaste??

Oh my god, another secret secret. I cried a little when Sadeen went away...

Underground ruins? Zertinan Caverns?

Entites!! Oh my god my new goal is to get up to level 45 so I can do those...and defeat the Earth Tyrant...and White Mousse...lol...

*so much to do*

Who cares about forwarding the story?? *needs to get Addramellech*

I don't develop my secondary party at all though. Ashe, Basch, and Fran are all at level 14 while Vaan, Penelo, and Balthier are at a satisfying level 26...ah...

Re: 13 OP

[identity profile] infected-wound.livejournal.com 2008-01-17 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I just dug out my guide to look at the map. And yeah, it's beyond Mosphoran Highwaste. And to be exact; the Nabreus Deadlands and the Necrohol of Nabudis.

I go there to level my characters up~ Though before you can get there, you ought to have conquered the Barheim Passage which has the Zalera the Esper....

Yeah D: Who cares about forwarding the story!

Oh and you probably should develop your secondary party more. It would help if your secondary party is strong enough to run like hell from the enemies when your primary party gets wiped out. Will suck if they can get one-hit-killed easily 8D
