Tale

That 7 minutes destroys everything that bio has ever made. Becides, they're completely optional and readable at your own pace so if you don't care about reading and ACTUAL character development/backstory then you probably shouldn't be playing jrpgs in the first place. I mean, if you sat through the Nibalhigm scene then you've got no excuse at all. I'm already interested in Lost Odyssey. However, your argument is so bad that I'm now a little less interested. I'm no Bio fan. And when I was a Bio fan it wasn't for story consideration. We can make a differentiation between narration text and dialogue text. Like we can make a differentiation between dialogue text and MGS cutscenes. And I am capable of enjoying MGS cutscenes (most of the time). I also was able to tolerate the Xenogears second disc. Which was mostly just narration.

Gay sex is cool and all, but UNEXPECTED GAY SEX?! I can see that going over well. "Well, that was a surprise. I was being nice to some guy and suddenly my character ended up having sex with him." "Wait, you were surprised by sex? Oh dear..." ":(" There should definitely be a "no means no" option.

I love you, but I'm not in love with you.

That's fabulous.

I loved the first Suikoden, too.

In for Suikoden II and Xenogears. Check my profile for the latter.

Turn-based RPG appeals. 7 minutes of text... not so much. Never actually played a Tales game, but I am interested in seeing what people like about them. I should probably pose this question to my friend over Soul Calibur later today. Though, he also thought Final Fantasy XII was incredible, so I'm not sure I can count on his opinion.

Yeah, have Bioshock on PC. Mass Effect I will get on PC because it has a better interface. I have no plans to pay for multiplayer at this moment. I've heard mixed things on Lost Oddyssey as well. Maybe I should check on when Vesperia comes out.

How's Lost Odyssey?

Gizka is cool guy.

I feel obligated to buy a 360 soon. But what game should I get when I do?

So, apparently the interview today went better than I thought. I got a call from the recruiter and was told that the company would like to make me an offer. I'm going in tomorrow for paperwork. I will be, in a short time, employed in the video game development industry. I like being vague. No, it's not with Obsidian.

The Watchmen graphic novel arrived this afternoon. I'll be reading it once I get home.

Piffle. If mother nature wants to rumble with me, she best be prepared to lose!

It works so good that the only input you need to make for most battles is to move closer to the enemy. The game plays itself.

It's not, unless you're a convicted felon. And then it's not necessarilly illegal, but some states do carry penalties. I have a job interview tomorrow. It's temporary work, but I'm excited and nervous about it.

It's only really him if they're all female and wear assless pants.

You won't know until you try. Why can't you be a real e-girl?

lol, likeable and enjoyable are not the same thing. Yeah, he wasn't near cute enough. They should have included Brad Pitt somewhere.

Indeed. Devils got the shaft in that regard.

zounds! D&D alignment was always illogical, but at least it was symmetrical. It is symmetrical. Lawful Good (Buzzkills) - Good (Hippies) - Evil (Goths) - Chaotic Evil (Bat**** Death Metal Rockers) Unaligned (everyone else)
