Yeah, the beginning is kind of daunting but eventually it becomes easier to deal with everything especially if you start using your skills right. My last playthrough of the game, I actually finished the game on a first run. I do remember the last area bumping up the difficulty but that's probably because I decided to try and fight the Regents fair. I don't advise fighting the last boss this way as he's a smurfing pain in the ass on normal.

That is an excellent question.

Man, staff has gotten a little too lax it seems.

So do I just promote articles myself now, or do I still need an editor to to do that cause we've been getting some interesting FF/SE news lately and our front page is filled with links to threads that don't really have anything to do with either...

Yes, just one left.

I just don't want all of the joy to get sucked out of it for me, but I don't think it will be an issue. Most of the time I really enjoy writing when I actually get started.

Yeah, NaNo makes it feel like work, which is not the mindset I like to be in for it, but going back to the "Professional" video I found, that could also be my main problem.

While I may stick to world building for the one I mentioned before I'm thinking of either working on Waiting or my Retail Film script during NaNo. I have no intention or belief I'll get them done by the end of the month, but if I can get a good chunk of it or even a good grasp of where I want to take the stories, I'll be pretty content. Sometimes it's not about the page count and more about feeling good with the project in question.

It is a pretty hard game. I take it your playing a fresh file and not working from a NG+? Yeah the game can be pretty brutal if you don't play conservatively with resources and make the most of the P.E.T.S. system.

In other news, I've been pretty inspired to work on some of my writing projects. I have a bit of a writing protege at work that I help, and she's getting ready for NaNo this year and much like you, she's working on a novel she stalled on, but recently dropped some ideas that didn't work and her new vision of the piece is actually pretty clever and interesting, so it's been kind of exciting to hear her new ideas for a piece that I encouraged, but didn't particularly care for. This along with some other things in my life has me interested in getting back to a few pieces I've been putting off.

How is that going for you?
