I AM THE SAVIOR....almost. Also, Sticks.

Phew, as said before, I am booking to get the latest transmission finished, so I'm scarcer than usual to put effort into it. That aside, I still game to take a break when possible.
So, Lightning Returns update! First day was kind of slow since I had to get use to everything. I was intrigued following those cult people, considering they showed up at a specific time and all. Luxerion is kind of cool....and the music was nice and all with some jazzy beats. I felt kind of bad beating the crap out of that dragon in that chaos sphere for a quest though....for about the first three seconds...then I got into battle mode and was going "YOU ARE GOING DOWN!!!"
Highlights aside...took me a bit to find that one last clock for that later quest...but overall all of them aren't too hard. Still gotta finish that one to get the Dark Knight costume (kind of annoying waiting an entire day to finish it, but ehh, I got 5 left).
But I AM eternally grumbly at one little girl named Dulce who ruined my perfect quest record -_- MUST RAGE! See, this little girl wanted me to find her Carbuncle doll...in North Station...simple enough. But can only pick it up at a specific time, something about it touching Chaos and fading in and out. Ok, by this time, I've done all the main questions and enough mini-ones to get to 14 days (still shows 13, but better not lie to me), so I KIND OF use a guide to help me fix things up. Come on, time-based game, so helps. Anyway, I pick up the doll...but it's red, not green. Felt that was weird...anyway, handed it off to the kid...and she starts going all sad and hopeless because it's not green. I was like...what? Lighty starts going that she just "broke" the girl and I had to admit I felt bad. So...ok, maybe I spent too much time on other stuff and it was a timed quest. Ok...fine, I'll deal with it. I later find out...THERES A SECOND DOLL. That's right, the RIGHT one (the green one) is in a DIFFERENT PLACE than what she said. How was I suppose to know without a guide?? I can't even go to pick it up for the kid to make amends. Ugh...so yeah, I can do every other one right BUT that one...wouldn't be so bad if Dolce didn't do a "creepy girl laugh" that nearly made me wet my dia...Mag....*shivers* Seriously creepy.
Ok...rage passed...for now.
Yusaann is party city....lots of stuff. Singers, tournaments, and a butt-load of restaurants. People are basically partying to the end of the world and not worrying too much. I have to admit, the bit that stands out most is in the main quest when Lighty's plan to get into the Palace goes. Reminded me of FFX-2's opening...but her declaration on if who she's serving will betray her is just WOW. Also, he bit with Snow is perhaps one of the most uplifting bits in the whole series. Brought a tear to my eye...aww...
Wildlands. Ok, think Calmlands from FFX...but BIGGER. Farmers, researchers, hidden moogles...and chocobos! Not only that, but I was SURPRISED to ACTUALLY get a party member for the area. Not only is he practically invincible (though still heals himself for some reason), but now he's tossing out weakness spells to help me stagger the big boys. Won't spoil who he is, but was a surprise to me.
Although, big tip for you first/struggle timers...remember to plant seeds (three places, three different results)...use behemoths to replemish your EP.....wait to face most Last Ones in the field (Chaos spheres can spawn randomly, dramatically improving what you get)....
And.................DO NOT FACE THE MAIN QUEST BOSS TILL AFTER THE OTHERS! Seriously, if you think your helpful party member will be there to help, he's not. Go in unprepared, and your toast. He brings the other bosses to shame. I admit it, he whooped my padded tail twice...or three times, can't remember. All I can say is "Artemis" and "Hoods" to not spoil things. Also, game gave me a break. When I learned my lesson, I teleported out. When I came back all prepared, I dreaded treking all the way back. Good news? Somebody's there just inside to teleport you to the top. Thanks for the break game! Much appreciated!
Dead Dunes...so much sand. So much, I thought some got into my Mag....
Anyway, another party member can join in here! Fun too...go all Lara Croft in tomb raiding (yes, I know, there IS actually a Garb of that!)...sand surfing...and plenty of skeletons. The timed doors may had been annoying, but thankfully not to the point that I wasn't able (I think?) to get everything in my two runs.
Another little tip. Try to get as much as you can done (particularly those Cactaurs and Earth Eaters and Lost Ones if your up for that. OH! Also, the bonus boss (if that's around before the end of the quest)) BEFORE finishing the main quest. It was SUCH a bummer the party members leaves permanently after that. Yay, I get to face the big boys alone.
Also, I recently found that Rare Forge! And I wasn't even looking for it! Yay! Just have to find it again when the new stuff goes in the store.
But yep, got all my Mains done and nearly all the side-stuff....just gotta get a few more done and I'm practically just waiting for the Last Day. Of course, I gotta start raising money...been using those Beggars Beads so much, I'm nearly broke. Thank ripped pockets for Medals I haven't sold yet eh? Hehehe.
NO SPOILERS please...I'm looking forward to the ending and the challenge.
Sticks? Who said sticks? Oh I did heheh.
Next game on my to-do list may very well be South Park's Stick of Truth! Sure, dipping fund-wise...but I've seen the previews, and SP Studios has really taken up the gauntlet to involve themselves in THIS game rather than developers that made the....other stuff.
Yes, I watch the show and laugh like heck. Sure, it's crude and has...advanced subject matter. But don't let the padding fool you, I'm mature. Well....I AM.
Anyway, it's RPG, and I like that genre...plus, looks like it's going to be freakin' funny, and we can all use some comedy can't we?

Replaying FFXIII and FFXIII-2 before trying Returns. Just so I can jump into it with the most feels ever. Did play a little bit of the game though to know who Dulce is. She has a Mag-wetting scary laugh? Gotta try that sometime.
