[PS2] Odin Sphere - Hot sex from Atlus

Wow, I'm really excited now! It looks like the localization for this is going to be pretty damn good. I'm certain I'll be picking this up as soon as it comes out, and from the looks of it, that will be fairly soon.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

After seeing that last trailer, I'm even more excited than I was a week ago, which means I am now simply ecstatic! I can't believe it's coming so soon, but be certain, I'll have this puppy on lock-down by the end of this week. It just looks too great not to pre-order, and why shouldn't I? I'm going to buy it anyways on it's release date.

I'm just thankful that it's coming out when it is, which is a week after my finals. What a way to kick of the summer, eh?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Pre-ordered my copy in full today. I think that maybe I shouldn't have yet, because now the anticipation seems almost unbearable.

Ah well, only 8 more days until I get my hands on a copy of this almost certainly awesome game.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I feel you on that one!

After going to retrieve my pre-order today, I sat down ready to play for at least 2 hours. Long story short, I ended up playing for 5. I simply could not rip myself from the screen, whether I wanted to or not. Evey thing in this game appeals to me, from the battle system, to planting seeds and reaping the benefits. The storyline, of course, is a great draw for me and is presented in such a beautiful way. It keeps you going, wondering what may happen next and how the characters might be connected.

My only qualm so far is the repetitive scenery in dungeons. This is definitely not a big problem, considering how great the graphics look in the first place, but I think they could have mixed it up at least a little bit.

Anyways, I'm really excited to get deeper into this wonderful gaming experience. Now my only worry is that it may be too short, but presently I have nothing to gauge that with.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Frankly, I have found little problem with the inventory system. It drives me crazy when things are not organized, but I quickly found a way around that with the bags. Currently, I have the two original bags, the bag that holds five items, and the bag that holds six. By pressing R2 and moving some things around, I have all my items organized in a matter of seconds. I actually held off from buying the large bag (8 items) because I have no problem keeping at least 5 spots open for incoming items (and that is when I'm stocked comfortably with many healing items and food).

Really, messing with my inventory has kind of become a fun part of the game for me. It adds a small micro-managing aspect to it that I neither mind nor fault the game for having.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Guys, what do you think about my map? =o

That's really fantastic, man! Very thorough and pleasing to the eye.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Oh man, I struggled with that one for quite awhile. So goddamn frustrating. This is what I ended up having to do.

Spoiler:

I happened to have a Blizzard potion with me, so I waited until the two executioners were close to me and each other (if you just sit tight for a moment, they should surround you), and dropped the Blizzard on the ground. As soon as they are both frozen, begin to hit one of them until he lines up with the other, so you can be dealing damage to them both simultaneously. Once they were lined up, I began to hit them with Precision Shot over and over until my psypher gauge was empty. After that, I tossed a Napalm their way, knocking them down to a very manageable amount of hit points. At this point they will be getting very close to thawing, or have done so already. This doesn't matter because they should be down in a few shots. Once you take care of them, the battle becomes quite a bit more simple to manage. You just have to keep yourself healed and hit Beldor's conjured blades back at him. It is important to stay fairly near to him so this can be done. After he is hit with one of his own blades, you can begin to hit him for big damage. He should be down after repeating this about three times.

Definitely one of the worse battles I have encountered in the game so far. Just have to stay persistent and you should come out victorious!

Speaking of Mercedes: damn I hated playing with her. The experience seriously made me pissed at the game. Luckily I finished her book tonight!
