So on a whim, I played don't take it personally blah blah blah.
Erm. Not sure whether it was more entertaining or more wtf. I get the feeling I totally failed, but Yoh Dog made it all worth it.
I finished it around an hour ago. I liked the story, and I actually had an emotional reaction when I thought
I rarely react to anything with emotion showing, so I was kind of shocked.
I didn't actually really react to that. I guess I never really got attached to her. Hell, if it had been another other character, I would have.
I was frustrated that you couldn't actually not check the messages on Amie. But I guess it makes sense, if John thinks it's his duty, and then all the stuff he says at the end. And it's not really the player's story. It's about John, and even though there were multiple paths to take, that doesn't give you more control over him or his story.
The game has made me think about things like that. There's really only ever one possible outcome, because that's what happens. The other choices you may have are all superficial. But at the same time there is an infinite number of choices. Which is probably why I can't sleep at night; too busy imagining every choice other than the one I picked :p
tl;dr: at the risk of making myself look like a fool, I engage in a philosophical discussion with nobody in particular.
Edit: HERP forgot why I came here in the first place. I found my gameboy sp thingy, but not my charger. So I downloaded a rom for Dragon Warrior III, since I found that too, but was unable to play it.
Jesus, the game intro has a personality quiz sort of thing. And nails me every time. Or rather, it doesn't; it describes a facet of my personality.
After getting one thing that described me very well, I rewinded and took the other option available. It gave me another description that fits very well. But I know it's possible to get descriptions that don't, because when I lie on every single question I get something that's totally not me :b
I was torn by indecision between these two options, so I took them both.
Vert, you approach everything at your own pace. People view you as cool and aloof. But that is only on a superficial level. You are a mass of seething emotions. You avoid close ties, and yet you crave people, for you are lonely. Make an effort to be friendly. Eventually, you will find life long friends. You won't be alone anymore.
Vert, you are quite a romantic. While being kind to others, you do so without making a show of it. You appear to be well liked. But while kindness to others is good, do you pull back from showing your true self in your bid to be liked? In your daydreams, you must be more active and free to do as you wish. Try to live with more confidence.

The truth, it hurts ;_;
I have that around here somewhere, I need to play it.
but seriously, at least a way to pick a single gnome and control them at least briefly would be very cool. Also multi-tile vehicles? Obviously not anything inappropriate for the time period, but that still leaves wagons, and possibly siege weaponry? Thinking a bit far into the future, but battering rams, siege towers, and catapults/ballistas/trebuchets/scorpions would be incredible to have at some point.
