I finished it today, I think it took roughly 8 hours? I found the combat really hard, and it really pissed me off T_T that and the fact that Faith tended to be a retard when it came to grabbing things that were 2 inches in front of her face. But! I did love the ending, I loved the credits and theme song (I hope everyone watched the whole credits!!) I love the character design of Faith, I felt attatched to her and I do want to play the next games and follow her story. The game is quite short, but I like that, you get long enough to feel that you know the story and characters, but not so long that the story feels like it's being dragged out. I also thought the final boss was awesome and fit the game really well. I love the extras, the unlockables and all that, and the races are very fun to play when you just want to run about. Like I said, I found the combat difficult, but once I'd finished the game I felt really accomplished, and I havn't gotten that feeling from a game for quite some time.
So, I havn't updated in a while. Why? Because the lectures have all seemed entirely pointless. I have nothing against the people, they themselves are fin, and probably rather interesting to alot of people. However, I do not want to do journalism. I don't mind writing reviews, especially for Otaku News, but other than that I'm not interested. After Uni I plan to get a decent enough job to pay bills and give me a little extra cash so I can buy the things I love, and I will write my stories and scripts in my spare time and work toward getting those published.
Toward publication should be about ALL forms of publication, not just journalism. I feel a little let down. We have not been told ANYTHING about getting scripts published. Why?
We learn how to respond to editorial comments this week T_T
Week 5
My 'ladder' consists of:-
Graduate Uni
Get a decent job (I don't particularly mind where, but I would want to work with people, albiet in an office or in a shop, just not something like factory work!)
Write in spare time
Publish something (script or story)
Get kittens
Week 6
I looked up some competitions, but upon realising that most require me to pay to enter, I decided to skip out on those for now. I will enter some on the next trip round, and keep checking in to see what's happening. Some are so specific about storys and some are very vauge, where are the inbetweenies?
Week 7
We were making up our own newspaper this week, I wrote a review of Never Mind the Buzzcocks. I suppose I was supposed to review the single episode, but it evolved into a review of the show itself. Oh well, it seemed more interesting to me anyway.
Bahaha! Lydia is sitting beside me eating Jaffacakes and doodling, Jezzii is playing Megaman 9 and playing Sonic soundtracks, and I am...here!
Hope everyone had a lovely Halloween! I went to the cinema because it was my housemates birthday. We saw Quantum of Solace (or Something of Boris) which was boring as all James Bond films are. Only good thing was that the girl reminded me of Jade (BG&E) and also didn't have sex with Bondy!! Woot! Bond isn't as suave as he thinks. I'd throw a cocktail in his face! And steal his gadgets. Which reminds me, where are the gadgets? What happened to the quips?! It's just another action movie now. Pft.
I need to do more prose writing, script writing and general Uni work >______________< I DONT WANT TO BE A JOURNALIST!!! Stupid Uni course making me write articles D= Oh wellies, I am going to submit reviews for my folder anyway >.>
Also, look what I made!
I don't want to write articles. I hate writing articles. I don't like the style nor the demands. I've written them before, I used to work on the school newpaper and do them for class etc, and I just detest it. I love to write reviews though, it's the only form of journalism I like.
Bah!
