... is becoming my most favorite FF. The battle system helps a lot, by being able to run away without having real time draining by the transition from the world map to a battle mode. It helps when something comes up and I have to save my game. I also like how running around heals MP.
The only issues I have with it so far is the music. It's just different and my music ear isn't trained well enough to recognize its greatness. That and the story, just because there isn't much romance!
So far, it's been addictive. The story feels powerful, though the characters lack a little substance. Maybe they're really far below how characters should be well-developed, but since I"m rusty with these types of games, I don't notice how lackluster the character development is. This is a great game for me to play since I haven't played a current JRPG for awhile (with the exception of Chrono Cross).
In other game news, I finished all 135 puzzles of Professor Layton and the Curious Village. I feel so disparaged when I touch the hint button. I clocked the game at 12:35, but I'm pretty sure it would be much more than that if I didn't restart sometimes when I feel like I used too many hint coins. I'm proud to say that I only looked up answers for 2 puzzles online. And I'm so happy that I passed puzzle 135, which is a variation of a physical puzzle I actually own carved from Maple wood called Escaping Jail, which my GrandmaLilian gave me for getting good grades. Even though it took me about 1,363 steps, if I remember correctly.
I think I'll end up being a teacher. I need to get focused. But... maybe later when I feel that it really really matters. I'm satisfied with my life right now, I only feel shaken up after thinking about the future.
I'm having fun with my piano class. Except, I don't like how I still have to think to play certain notes. How ironic that I hate thinking when I want to be doing something, especially being me.
I'm also trying to rekindle my love for chess.
I haven't watched Detective Conan in awhile (three days).
I can't wait for Pokemon Black and White to release in the US. Hopefully cousin Kayla is still into Pokemon at that time so we can battle. If she is, but doesn't have the game, it'll make a perfect present.
I keep jumping topics, but anyway, I think I'll be more confident when I apply for an after school program after I finish these Education classes. I'm excited, but I'm also getting slightly discourage because of my sudden ever changing mood and confidence to achieve smooth transportation to the work area. But whatever, I'll get used to it eventually. I probably already am... or not.
Eek I'm also playing Final Fantasy VIII and Golden Sun at the same time... Final Fantasy VIII in my room, Golden Sun when I feel like playing an RPG on the go, though I might stick to one game on the go, Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box. Playing these Final Fantasy games makes me feel like replaying the Atelier series. I want to see how much I appreciate the Project Atelier games after playing an FF... I haven't done so before. I love the Atelier games sincerely, I want to see how much I'd like it after I play a mainstream JRPG.
