So I went two days without posting, but it's not my fault, honestly! It's all Katie's fault because she let me borrow Final Fantasy 12! (FYI Dan, this is a video game). I've been playing it for two days straight until I'm too tired to open my eyes and then I stumble onto bed.
Honestly, even though I love video games I'm not much of a gamer. I do not usually get this way. But the game . . .is just too much to resist. I didn't begin it with high expectations just because I hadn't really heard anything about it. Nothing bad but nothing really good either. It's not that talked about compared to seven and eight and ten.
BUT I LOVE THIS GAME. The characters are awesome. Even Vaan, who is probably the final fantasy character with the least brain cells, is fairly tolerable. But this game doesn't have a single, super annoying perfect sweet girl in it. There are no Kairi's or Aeriths or Rinoas in this game. The girls in here are badass and Penelo is adorable without overdoing it.
And it's got Balthier. A super hot gentleman sky pirate who is the absolute shit. I love this guy. I love this guy more than I love Zell or Reno and that is a lot of love. And he's got the most awesome british voice.
And the cities! They're so gorgeous, there are tons of places to explore and it's so detailed and involved. . . .
But you guys have probably never played the game and have no earthly idea what I'm talking about so I'll stop gushing. But I seriously can not stop playing this game.
Word of the Day: Quiddities
the quality that makes a thing what it is; the essential nature of a thing.
or
a trifling nicety of subtle distinction, as in argument.
I still have no idea what that second definition means, but Balthier said it in the game and I was totally looking the word up on my ipod in the middle of battle because it's such an awesome word.
