The Blogtastic Blogfest That Is Getmeoutofthis.net!

You know, even though this blog exists for me to type out and think about things like that which is below, I really hate leaving them on top. I get self-conscious. I make sure I write them, because that’s important, but I don’t want things to be awkward. So here’s some Rapid Fire Ramblings for you.

Forumwarz Episode 2 hits this week! On Wednesday! Just in time for me to enjoy the new content over my fall break weekend! That’s really exciting times. I’ll be sure to ramble about all the new shit, since I’m sure you care, and all. What? You don’t? I’m shocked. But you’re going to hear about it anyway. That’s what you get for reading my blog.

So have you all seen this Persona 4: Ultimate Expensive Goodies Pack? I, uh, kinda already preordered it and the game. I’m pretty amazing like that. But at the same time, I’m willing to put forward the money for things I’m really passionate about, to support them. I’m willing to get all the little goodies to say “Hey, I’m a fan” So it’s preordered. I mean, I’m only spending imaginary future money, right? So it’s fine.

On a Dungeon-y and Dragon-y front, I looked at the Adventurer’s Vault the other day. First off, it kind of blows my mind that it’s 10 bucks cheaper on Amazon. Why isn’t it 10 bucks cheaper everywhere? $30 for that tiny book is ridiculous. Still, looking inside, there was definitely some really neat ideas in there. I like the inspiration. It gave me lots of cool ideas for phat lewt. Makes me wish we could play a little more. Of course, there was also lots of cool lewt in there that my friends would never use. There was this neat set of bags where the inside of both is essentially the same place, so you can say, share a stash of potions easily. My friends would never work together and use this. Ever. Sometimes I think this a shame, but their assholery to one another is very entertaining, so I guess I can’t complain much.
It’s also apparently offical that I’m playing this 3.5 Edition game this Friday. I still wish it was 4th edition, but eh, what are you gonna do. I also don’t know the guy running it, and maybe some people playing it. I just don’t know! I also need to make a damn character, or at least approach the session with a very firm idea. I’m planning vaguely a Sorceress with a fox familiar, but I mean, I dunno. I don’t have any ideas about her personality or anything, nor any cool names… I need to do some thinking this week.

So I’m once again on my “I should write erotica” mindset. I get like this from time to time when I basically go “dammit, I can’t find stuff about the weird shit I want.” Then it occurs to me that I can write pretty damn well, and I should just write it for people, put it out there, and see what they say. But I don’t have time to write things that actually need to be written. Bleh. And I don’t know how sexy I would actually be. I mean, I had the idea for Fetish, a sort of horror/mystery/erotica thing based on all these weird-ass fetishes that the furry community has exposed me to, but it hasn’t gone anywhere. I swear, at some point I’ll feel like I have little enough stress to set time aside to write, eh?

So on Friday, I was going to buy an iPod Touch. Well, there were literally no iPod Touches ANYWHERE in Cape, so that plan was foiled. I still have this Best Buy coupon that expires tomorrow, and a girl promised me that there will be some in then. So we’ll see if I get to waste money on that tomorrow. If not, well, I’ll have to put up with my old MP3 player for awhile longer. iAudio, I loved you, but you are really getting on my nerves, I swear to gods. I just want to be able to listen to music to and from work, dammit!

Oh, and finally, I never officially registered my complaint here, so now I will. WHAT THE FUCK, RHAPSODY DS? I will gladly admit that the original game was far from the pinnacle of perfection. Still, I had nostalgia for it and never owned a copy so I bought the DS version. THEY COMPLETELY CHANGED THE COMBAT. Again, the original combat system wasn’t perfect, but the quasi FFT style gave the game extra amounts of unique charm, and it was all the charm that won me over, not the mechanics. In this DS version they have replaced this combat with the most generic jRPG combat imaginable. Why the hell would they do this? I mean, first of all, who is even buying this game except people like me who are nostalgic for it? You’re just shooting that group of people in the foot and laughing by changing the combat. Secondly, if you’re going to completely overhaul the combat, you could, I dunno, make it fucking interesting or something. In the original, from what I can remember, you at least had to balance keeping Cornet close enough to the puppets to buff them while staying far enough way to keep her from getting killed. The combat is set up so that you’re actually ATTACKING with Cornet in this game. Augh.
So yeah, a complete disappointment, there. I was looking for a quick fix that I could play through and enjoy (Rhapsody is a short game) and instead I get this. Bleh bleh bleh.
