"...i think i like serah more than i like noel"
(Ugh, I really need to make this a paid account again so I can get at the rest of my icons).
Final Fantasy XIII-2 finally came on Thursday.
I really hate waiting for stuff. It wouldn't be so bad, but I'm really impatient. Everything NOW NOW NOW.
Anyway, I am now on Episode 3: Part 2 (I think? I find the writing hard to read when it says episode heading as it's coloured to suit the background, and often wrapped around the landscape. Also, need I remind you, I'm playing on a CRT, not an LCD TV). I have little to no idea what I am doing, where I am going, or even what order I'm supposed to be doing. Which is why I spent some of this morning running around in Augusta Tower 400 AF, and then unable to complete it because I wasn't supposed to be there yet, obviously.
So currently Noel and Serah are sitting on the Archylte Steppe (there are worse places they could be), waiting for me to be arsed to beat Faeryl (I did try before I napped this afternoon, but it took too long, got boring, so I let everyone get killed instead).
Noel has grown on me, thanks to his voice actor, but I still think he looks like a Kingdom Hearts reject. Serah's also grown on me, because now she's actually actively doing something. Although I love that she mostly fights with a bow. Bows rock.
Also HOPE ♥ ♥ ♥! I mean, I've always liked him, but now he's older, he's just...wonderful *happy sigh*
I like Caius, although he's terribly creepy. (Dang, dat voice. Also to say his colour scheme is purple, it's not as bad you might imagine. And, apparently, he is Squeenix's new poster boy for Most Powerful Villain Ever, which I can imagine is pissing off the Sephiroth fanboys).
I've said what I have to say about Snow and his redesign before, so I won't go over that again.
Not sure how I feel about the monster catching element so far (although it's so easy, since there's nothing to it unlike, say, catching a chocobo in FFVII. That drives me bonkers). I never know which ones to choose for the best, for my paradigms. And I don't know which ones to level up. Giving them adornments amuses the crap out of me, though*.
*Though some of them trigger a squick I have regarding things being in places they shouldn't be. Which, ask if you want to know more, but I'm not going into it here because I don't want to even think about it.
I also find the narrator's voice in the Historia Crux very soothing.

Played the alpha version of Prometheus for a bit the other day. Not sure what to make of it.
Also started Shin Megami Tensei I. I will have to start over again, however, as I messed up my save file by, uh, saving over it when I got a game over. I R SMRT! I shall try again, though!
