I was commenting on ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
lassarina's post about Ivalice, and I realised I was missing some crucial icons, so I went and uploaded them. One of them is gracing this post (I think I've been without a paid account for so long that I forgot I can suddenly upload relevant/useless/pretty icons whenever I want).
I also had ~feelings~ because that's the way I feel about Ivalice (maybe more so than Mass Effect, even though I would flat out tell you ME is my favourite game, no questions asked). And, because of that post, I've been thinking (yet again) about playing Tactics (I suck at Tactics games), or Vagrant Story (I'm kind of afraid of it, even though I could finish it in a day? HOW STUPID IS THAT?) or YOU KNOW playing FFXII AGAIN and maybe FINISHING this time! (I've played it four? five? times and stopped right about the time The Bahamut is available because I defer and do hunts and then I get bored and then I never come back to it. NARGLE).
(ONE DAY I WILL KILL YIAZMAT BUT IT IS NOT TODAY).
(or tomorrow either)
(or the day after that)
(you get the picture)
Relatedly, I have just had it pointed out to me (by TVT, no less) that ( this is a spoiler )
OH MAN WHAT AN IDIOT. I AM THE WORST FAN OF EVERYTHING EVER.
~*~
Also I hauled out an FFXII that I started writing five years ago, and abandoned because I couldn't make it work without dodgy circumstances. I re-read it and it's still good, and...now I kind of want to carry on writing it again, except there are still the dodgy circumstances AND really I'd need to play the game again to get a handle on the characters.
(Another fic I started around the same time EXEMPLIFIES the thing noted above. I.E. that I did not notice it because I am an idiot. Though it guess it proves that that whole part works as intended, although it wrecks a video I made to pieces** :( ).
~*~
*But, I think in part that knowing two pairs of twins as a kid probably helped me with that???
**I've vidded approx three times in my life, and they were all for FFXII. I started two FFX ones, but couldn't find enough useable footage that didn't have subs on :( I haven't vidded since mainly because of hardware/software constraints.
ETA: Actually I made four FFXII vids, and they're all lame, apart from the one about Balthier which, unsurprisingly, is the one I spent the most time on. Two of the others lack scenes for characters (or required characters together), and the final one (which I spent the second most time on) probably just needs re-editing. But see previous remarks about soft/hardware. [/eta]
