Let's hope this gives me more time for everything

So DQ IX arrived today! I heard you could actually have your friends' characters in your party - how do I do that? It would be cool if I could use yours and Pumpkin's, for example.

You know, I've decided to stop going on Facebook other than to let people know of a blog update. I still need to quit tumblr, since really, I find that at this point I'm even procrastinating things I do for pure pleasure. So I don't mean just writing, but even playing games. It's amazing how much time I wasted doing something that isn't even really satisfying

Yeah, that'll happen

How are your writing projects coming along?

Oh yes. That is definitely a huge advantage smartphone ports have over regular games, even on handhelds. I mean, I could theoretically play on the DS on the bus, but I wouldn't be able to play ON THE WAY to the bus, and it definitely helps that these ports were really well-made.

Though I did miss the DS's buttons and stuff, so that'll be a huge advantage in DQ IV V and VI. I also usually spend my evenings on gaming. I should no longer work at my language school starting February, so at least I'll be home earlier every day, so I can always write a bit first and then play. And of course, Sunday is that one day of the week when the wife and I have vowed to do nothing BUT unwind.

So yeah, I wonder if I'll manage to beat FFIII before the DS is repaired. Id say chances are high, but I'm also slowly working my way through Devil Survivor and P4 DAN. But the show must go on!

Way too busy for my liking

I've mostly been writing articles recently, as well as correcting my thesis. Once I get THAT thing out of my system, I hope I can finally focus on some real writing

That's my intention

Definitely the best so far. I enjoyed the class system and the world. It was really cool exploring it, especially in reference to real work locations - Golden Sun later did a similar thing and the overall effect was also similar. It was all really satisfying to play and that twist really wrapped up the first three games nicely. It was very satisfying.

Ha, now I posted a message to you on my own profile XD


I had trouble beating Zoma until I remembered I had the Sphere of Light. Then, everything went well. Beat the game, and now I'm waiting for my DS to come back from repairs
