Sandal, you're surrounded by darkspawn corpses! What happened here?

"Enchantment!"

Snrrk! *cough* Um, yeah. Ok.

Finished Dragon Age! Had a main party consisting of me (DPS/CC Spirit Healer, haha), Alistair, Wynne, and my faithful dog, Dioji. Lemme tell ya, having 2 Revivals for the last boss fight really came in handy. XD

Gonna try rogue for my next playthrough. Maybe Assassin/Duelist.

. . .

Huh. You know, I don't think I've ever done a second playthrough right after finishing a game before. (Err, another exception would be Persona 4.) I usually look through a guide, see if I missed some side quests, wait a few months/years, then nostalgia gets the better of me and then I play again.

It's probably because of all the dialogue in the game. There's a bridge in Redcliff (the one near the smithy) that'll always trigger a party dialogue. 8D

Also, damn you, David Gaider, for making Alistair so frickin' adorable. DX

Dragon Age: Origins was released today. And we just got the last copy from our local GameStop; the others are on reserve.

I swear, we're cursed (blessed...?).

(Also, I would like to apologize for the lack of online activity as of late. Hopefully I'll come up with something amusing to blog about. :P)

So, after playing BlazBlue for a while, we've decided to get a new game for the PS3: Disgaea 3.

(I... I played a ranked match for once! And got horribly owned by a Nu player. >_o *cough* Anyways...)

Looks like a grindfest, especially if you want to get the extra stuff done. ...I don't think I'll play often ever finish this game. X_x

What piqued our interest the most was the amount of familiar voice actors in the game... Mao is Vic Mignogna high on Red Bull. Beryl is Laura Bailey. Almaz is Johnny Young Bosch. (And so many more...)

Then came Chapter 5. Joshua was playing the map that had Gold Knuckle, and, when I heard his voice, I was like, "Was that Ragna..?" (Sh-shut up, blame my inner fangirl! D: )

. . .

Unfortunately, the internets could not confirm whether or not Patrick Seitz voiced Gold Knuckle. (He's got awesome dialogue, next to Prinny Mask and Baby Mao. XD)

So, I sent an e-mail to Patrick Seitz himself, asking if he voiced Gold Knuckle and if he knew who voiced Prinny Mask.

Apparently, he did the voices of both characters.

My God.

*imagines a scenario where someone calls Ragna an old man 'cause of his white hair*

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, Ragna is not an old man!"

I... Can not... Unhear it... O_o;

(By the way, we first had our strange obession on finding out character's voice actors when Naruto was released as a dub. I think. Still wondering who voices Nanako's doctor in Persona 4, hmmm...)

Oh wait, that's Tager. FFFUUUU~

Score Attack mode aside, if you see a "Nootkin" online, that's us. :D

Chris: Arakune as main, Hakumen as sub. (An "Ara-mens"!)

Joshua: Taokaka. And maybe Noel. ("Tao...el!" Towel, ahahaha! XD)

Err, I haven't played online yet, but I'm mostly using Ragna. :P

* At Our Local GameStop... *

Cashier: You're here for something. Lemme guess... BlazBlue?
Me: Er, yeah. You got the Limited Edition for the PS3?
Cashier: Yep! *gets the box and scans it* This is our last one until the regular version ships next month.

* Later... *

Me: Wow, guys, we got their last BlazBlue in stock.
Me: *blinkblink* ...Wait, didn't the same scenario happen with Persona 4? That we got their last copy?
Chris (younger brother): Yeah. I checked the website right after we bought ours... It's backordered.
Joshua (youngest brother): Y'know, the same thing also happened with Fallout 3 and Left 4 Dead...
Me: Wait, wut? Really? Wow, we're incredibly lucky then.
Joshua: Indeed.
Me: Well, you guys go play. I'ma go check the soundtrack.

(And no, we have never pre-ordered a game. Ever.)

(BTW, The OST is awesome. :D)

M'kay, so...

Back in May, around the Memorial weekend... My brother's and my WoW subscriptions were about to expire. We were considering about getting a new game to pass the time. It's been awhile since we've played an RPG (last one being Tales of Symphonia 2), so... yeah.

It all came down to two choices: 1) Eternal Sonata ("Fredric Chopin's life flashes before his eyes as an anime-styled JRPG right before he dies.") or 2) Persona 4 ("Eight different high school students solve local murders by watching TV all night long."). (*sigh* I love you, TV Tropes. XD)

We chose the latter. AND WE REGRET NOTHING. D:<

Annnd I finished my first playthrough a few days ago.

First time playing a Shin Megami Tensei game, and it was definitely a bit different than the RPGs I've previously played. Absolutely loved the story, the characters (Kudos to the voice actors!), and the music, eeee~.

. . .

Expect fandumb art stuff on my LJ soon. SOOON~. :O
