    I've been eyeing Romancing SaGa 2 as well, but money is a bit tight and I am hoping it will get a price drop soonish. The only true entry I've played is FF Legends 2 years ago. I don't think I've gotten past the intro of any other entry I've tried to play. Hoping to change that soon.

    I'm finding that I may need to eventually draw a map. Since my world deals with a lot of historical elements and war, it seems too weird to not have a more grounded sense of geography since characters name drop places and the important events that happen there all the time.

    In other news, I think when I finish Chrono Cross, I'm actually going to attempt SaGa Frontier 2 again.

    Glad it's coming along. I had to backtrack to an older chapter to remember what I had a character say to add consistency. I think when I wrote the newest chapter, my memory of that scene was based on an older draft so I'm embarrassed I'm forgetting my own story now.

    How do you deal with geography? I've been name dropping places but in my head, I don't really have a map of what the world looks like yet. Been a real pain since I'm sure I'm going to have a mistake somewhere due to this.

    I have one story with a few of them in it, and I feel it says a lot about how I feel about them because I basically have most of them wiped out in the first planned book.

    I just don't write stories with orcs for the most part. I tend to ignore high fantasy races.

    Very true, my only fear is that he's the type of character who would only work in a specific type of fantasy fiction I tend to loath. Basically he's a dandy orc who wants to be sophisticated so he tends to prefer the sophisticated touch of humans despite being an orc. Think Pierre from Chrono Cross but as an orc.

    He's not good enough to star in his own story, but he's an amusing support character at least.

    I'm not terribly interested is the issue. I just came up with an amusing character was all, but I may just keep him for a future story idea.

    It is a quirky series. Right now I need to finish off Chrono Cross.

    Actually the interesting thing about MGSV is that it doesn't really do standard quests. Sometimes you have to collect documents or catch a rare animal, but due to the nature of the gameplay, it almost always boils down to infiltration missions. What helps the game is the Mother Base mechanic, where capturing enemy soldiers means that backtracking through smaller strongholds still retain value, but also the open ended nature on how you can complete missions helps give missions life as you can attempt it a few times and never get the same results usually as there are often multiple entrance ways or means of accomplishing your goals. Give the game excellent replay value, but that's almost a hallmark of the franchise really.

Part of your world

by Fynn on 06-06-2017 at 04:37 PM
So there's this nagging issue I've had for quite some time now. It's a pretty abstract issue but one I think is pretty interesting and perhaps even important to share nonetheless. For many reasons, it has only become more pronounced recently.

As some of you may know, I want to be a writer. I try to do as much writing as I can. I even do writing for a living, though as an SEO copywriter, it's not exactly that I have an opportunity to spread my creative wings as part of what keeps giving

On FFVII (part of my Fmarathon rant)

by Fynn on 11-23-2016 at 11:16 AM
Decided this is worthy of being a blog-post, since it turned out to be a much bigger rant than I expected and I'm not sure the marathon's audience is really there for that kind of stuff

So far, I can say that

Frustrations of the writerly sort

by Fynn on 07-01-2016 at 11:13 AM
So there's this thing I've been struggling for quite some time. I don't want to call it a "writer's block" because it kind of seems like an excuse for being lazy. And it usually doesn't last long. This is something that's been eating at me for a long time.

I just kinda feel that I can't write anymore.

I mean, I still write articles for the site sometimes and I write other texts at my work, but it seems like, creatively, I've dried up. I'll come up with ideas

On story expectations

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 11:57 AM
So this is kind of a general discussion, but the general rant I have is based on three popular 3DS RPGs: Bravely Default, Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Shin Megami Tensei IV. Sorry if this is chaotic, as I'm just writing this as it comes into my mind. Also, spoilers from the three games abound.

All of those games were very well received, though for different reasons. SMT is kind of here to serve as a neutral ground, as the evaluation of its story is pretty divided, whereas the consensus

Character Appreciation: Junpei Iori

by Fynn on 03-30-2016 at 10:37 AM
This is in no way an idea I stole from Pumpkin, no siree.


Junpei Iori is a character from the Persona franchise. He first appears in Persona 3 and all of its subsequent releases as a playable party member. He becomes a social link character as well in the female path of Persona 3 Portable, though he isn't date-able. He is also playable in
