i. hear. a. sound.

I have finished Nier, and I am bereft.

That is the most emotionally draining game I have ever played, but I can't say I regret any of it. I don't.

I don't know what else to say about it but:

# The writing! The dialogue is fucking AMAZING. And I love the way Nier talks, because he sounds so human. And Weiss and Kainé's banter is great (and made all the better by knowing what good friends Liam O'Brien and Laura Bailey are in real life).

# The soundtrack is awesome.

Mostly I just want to make wavy hand motions, but also sounds of pain, because apparently this is what this game does to you.

I finished reading the Drakengard LP and dove straight into one by the same guy for Drakengard 2. I can see why it is not well liked in the fandom, as it appears to be some sort of fanfic. Not that there's anything wrong with fanfic, but you know when you find really badly written stuff? This is that. Then I started on one for 3, but my eyes started glazing over, so I think I'm over-saturated at this point.

I discovered there is a Last Remnant LP on the LPA, so I might read that for a break maybe (although it's very long, so maybe not. I guess we'll see).
