So I Picked Up Dragon Age...

Last Saturday I made the mistake of picking up yet another RPG. I had played DA:O on the PC for a little bit and I had been wanting to get a copy for the 360 since my computer cannot run it in "pretty" mode. I should not have done this. Once I started playing the game it sucked me in so hard I have a hicky on my ass...again...don't ask.

I started off playing as a mage pew pewing stuff with my stick and casting spells and being all magey. Got to level 11 and decided I want to check out a duel wielding warrior tonight and even though I have played through the first missions a couple of times now it still has not bored me.

As a comparison between playing a front line character like the warrior and a ranged dps'er I do not know which I like better yet. Granted I have only been playing the warrior class for a few hours (I'm at Loathering now) and have not become bored yet so that is a good sign.

The goal is to have the story line of DA:O beat by the time Final Fantasy 13 comes out. Even if I am not done with it before March 9th...well let's just say that FF13 is going to take precedance because I have the mf'ing day off from work.

I am praying to whatever divine power hears me that FF13 is at least somewhat better than 12. I liked 12, don't get me wrong and I feel a bit selfish asking for a game better than 6 (still my favorite FF game) but I still have the ability to dream and my dreams are filled with an epic Final Fantasy adventure.

A Thank You To a Lost Love

Never before has anything ever felt so special, so real, so necessary.  Even now as I reflect on the life that we shared it is with an open heart that I realize that I would do everything all over again and relive the short time we had together.

This is my heaven, my hell, my never ending search for that feeling again.  My lone regret is that I will never be able to thank you for helping me realize how foolish this world is.
