Excuse Me While I Scream

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[more screaming]
[and more]
[some more]
[almost-no more screaming]
[SCREAMS]

OKAY

SO

I REALLY WISH WE HAD KGE'S SYSTEM OF STAGGERING SMALLER AMMOUNTS OF CONTENT FASTER

BECAUSE FUCKING HUGE PATCHES LIKE THIS HIT ME FOR A DOOZY.

But it's been almost two weeks now.

Ho-lee shiiiit.

Guys. Guys.

I HAVE VERONIF. SOB. I HAVE HER
AND ELISA
AND GRANDIES OH MAN GRANDIES. HER HAIR IS THE FUCKIN BEST. ELISA IS SO CUTE.

I acquired Natalie first, then Daria, then Veronif, then Elisa, then Grandies. Fff, Grandies is actually pretty cool.

I really need a greatsword. I couldn't do the Soul Guard fight with my +5 natachi lulz. It'd be nice if I could get another rosario and ele robe too... .-.

With the advent of this patch + transfer some of my old friends have come back too, Ratridevi and Irving! wop wop. I shoved their gear back at them and some new stuff for Irv because he is a costume fiend. Lucky for him this patch. Not so lucky, his lack of feso.


ALSO

OH MY DEAR SWEET GOD, TELEKINESIS AND UNLIMITED SHOTS KICK SO MUCH ASS THAT THERE IS NO ASS LEFT, ITS AN ASS HOLOCAUST. 

Selva's stance is upgraded! I can finally get Blitz Assault! eeeee

The things I have left to do are-
Get Marie(y) -About three more basement runs.
Get Ion - finish farming for Rose piece, attempt Saut/Abre raids.
Get Beatrice - attempt Cortes(shitty luck, tried it like three times now and they all failed)
Get Blitz Assault and start on Tora's quest
Plus figure out what the hell I'mma do with my money.

It was a real treat to see the side quests for NPCs too! Raven's was the weirdest/funniest I think. I enjoyed Selva's, which dug into the key elements of the story more. Sharif's was a total let down though. :(

I recruited Vincent yesterday, before going out to a movie(Gangster Squad. my god it was so cool). He's not so bad, and I want to know more about Armonia. ;C Thanks to Lusse's eternal photoshop-fiddling, I've found he's fucking adorable with proper eyebrows.

Today, I acquired Ludin. I cannot believe IMC accurately portrayed arguing, misunderstanding siblings. xD I did Hell Breaker with Irv and my god what nostalgia that was. She's quite a fiesty little brat, but she's grown on me since her reveal. Still, I expect Leo to keep her in line. >:l

Her and Vince aren't created yet, since I'm unsure what to name them. Same goes for Daria(or should I say Lightning from FFXIII because really.)

It was exciting exploring the Fe Lomme Gardens and Castle, and as my good friend Shenanigans said, its as if every villain worth their salt has a degree in Interior Design(In Montoro's case, he's also got Landscaping down)

The Judgement Day scenario was interesting, but my excitement for it was small. I had already seen videos of it, and this game does not handle cutscenes very well(although recent patches have sort of improved it). I can't help but think of how amazing it would be if it were single player!

Anyway, that's all for now. I'll make a post later with a bunch of screenshots! *w*

Here We Are, Folks

The last hours of Sword2.

The first hours of a new year, or a calendar's reset.

I'm twitchy, but it's a good twitchy.

Bring it on, 2013. I'm ready for you.
