I hope you come online soon.
You're not into the After Years just because of that? I don't even think that's how Kain's story went. It went something like his dark side beat him at Mt. Ordeals and has been wandering around tricking people into thinking he's the real Kain (though he does make a sincere effort to help others sometimes). As for the real Kain, he help the others while being disguised as the Hooded Man, in case his identity is discovered and Dark Kain convinces the others that the real Kain is fake. Though I'll admit that I also have mixed feelings about the story with Luca becoming Cid's apprentice (and losing her shadow dwarf face). That just seemed way too random. Also, have you happened to try out Dissidia? I don't own it, but I sometimes play it on my friend's PSP. My favourite characters so far are Cecil, Golbez, Warrior of Light, Jecht, and Firion.
Maybe it works differently where you live. But I also remember that my driver instructor told me to stay on the right side of the road whenever possible, even if there's parked cars to the right. Oh well, I passed it, and that's what matters. Though I still haven't driven on my own completely yet. Even if it's a young kid at the passenger seat, I still want someone with me to scream or react if I'm doing something dangerous or if someone cut me off and I'm not slowing down. At least I'll have that extra insurance that way. Well, I was into Runescape at one point, but I stopped quite early into it. The last I recall, I was around level 15 and I had two-three quests completed. I'm more into old style sidescrollers and RPGs.
Oh. That's good to know. Are there any other bosses where the strategy needed to defeat them has changed around significantly? I'll wait until later to get a job. Right now, it's pretty pointless seeing how I applied for at least 10-15 places (mostly during May, some during June) and none of them called me back. Well, I did manage to get an interview at this one theatre, but they didn't hire me. It's a shame, since they sounded quite impressed at me volunteering at different places. I thought for sure I'd get the job because of that.
Oh, and as for The After Years. Not a big fan of it. I mean it's cool they made a sequel and all but, the whole 17 years later thing, with Kain still being of that damn mountain ticks me off. I mean really. After 17 years of nothing but being on that mountain, he wouldn't even know Rosa or Cecil anymore. It just seemed stupid imo.
I recently got into mmorpgs, which I never thought I would! I'm actually excited for FFXIV. I got a 10 day trial for WoW and have been playing that. I just don't want to get addicted to them, so I don't play it for long. I started out with an online mmorpg called Wizard101. It's fun! Do you play mmorpgs?
Yeah, it's hard to get a job out there these days. It's why I haven't quit my job yet. Congrats on getting your license. I remember when I first started driving my instructor told me to be as close to the parked cars as possible and to hug the curb. Maybe my instructor was nuts!
Once you get used to how the battles work, FFIV isn't that hard. I'm actually breezing through the boss battles now. The regular enemies are harder imo. They changed the CPU battle up big time. FuSoYa still says to attack the healing node but, the attack node needs to go. PRONTO! The healing node barely even heals the cpu.
Gaming wise, I've defeated Fire Emblem New Mystery of the Emblem (I really enjoyed it, except how everything was in Japanese. But playing Marth's second game with bonus content and everything updated was really fun. I have to say Marth's probably tied with Cecil when it comes to my favourite video game character). I've been playing Dragon Quest IX now. Though it's quite different from other DQ Games (like the random encounter system and equippable items being seen on your characters), I'm still enjoying it a lot. Also, if I get two Wii Points cards on my birthday I'll probably buy FFIV: The After Years with it.
I've had quite a lot of time to relax. Since I've had no luck getting work, I'm volunteering delivering newspapers all around this hospital. It sure takes a while (2 1/2 to 4 hours), since the hospital is that big (around 5-7 buildings to deliver newspapers to, with each building having 3-7 floors to deliver newspapers to). But it's quite a good workout for me. I've also passed my road test and got my intermediate license (it was my second try. The first time I failed for driving too close to parked cars). The only deduction I got was forgetting to signal right going out of the parking lot, since I was so focused on going to a full stop before exiting, seeing how I got deducted on it on my first road test.
