Oh, wow.
So I unplugged my PC and opened it and took out the graphics card. Checked it from both sides several times, but haven't found a single thing being wrong with it.
After plugging it back, I had normal graphics for a minute or two and now, I have lines again :c
EDIT: Moar 'science' have been done. Apparently, I can fix this problem by merely touching the graphics card, or rather, gently pushing it further 'into' PC.
Now I have clear vision. The problem comes back after a long while, but gentle push and then a 'refresh' of screen works perfectly. What's wrong with this damn card >:I

What do you mean by that?
Also, I'm back after classes and started the PC... I had normal graphics for two minutes, and now the colored lines strike back :I
EDIT: Oh lol. I just managed to screenshot those lines o.o

Ffffff-
Okay. Apparently everything electronical around me decided to malfunction :v
This time it is graphics-related. When I turned the PC on this morning, the monitor was filled with small green lines (dark backgrounds) or pink lines (bright backgrounds). The higher the settings, the worse it gets.
I've switched to the safemode and now, I have segmented monitor output... like, 'block of normal view, pink lines, normal, pink lines'. And to reply some questions beforehand: yes, this LCD is as old as my router.
What might be cause of the problem and will I get away better with just buying new LCD?

LaMulana mantras.
Motherfucking argh. Nothing in this game gave me as much frustration and raeg fuel than this aspect. I've went through the game without a single damn 'outside' hint, wrestling my mind into pulp until I got through everything on my own.
Fine, finding mantras is doable - chanting them?
FUCK NO. I literaly had to run through all the rooms to find a spot that accepts the mantra. Thanks gods that I went on a hunch and found an order they can be found/chanted with. I would propably vomit all over the game if I had to check every room in every region every time.
Honestly, two weeks of gameplay spent on some damned eight words. Frustrating.
Never again.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Has more cheerful and family-friendly atmosphere.
Final Fantasy Tactics is more adult and about great war and whatnots.
Fire Emblems, but they're not isometric, only 2D and 3D.
Generally what you're looking for could be labeled as 'tactical RPGs'.

I think James thinks of her as, uh... big sister/good friend? Someone with whom he can hang out, and in case of need, also get a hug.
Still, how old is she? If we assume she is a construct, wen she was created? At the very creation of the Court? One of defense automata made after the Forest/Court schism?

Sorry, but I can't unsee a T-rex wrapped in white plastic and with LEDs for eyes.
Curse you, Tellemurrius
And OK, I will get a new router.

Been with contact with the ISP guys and they assured me that the mac is authenticated and that everything on 'them-router' connection is working okay.
Is it maybe that my (almost) 7 years old router can't cope with 20mbit/s? :I

So I happily chopped up a group of Empire soldiers and went further into this tunnel to get some magickal upgrade with crystal power.
Then I found out that there was another group of Empire soldiers, larger and led by a Wizard. Did I mention I forgot to heal after the first battle?
