T2 - B86-89 - Game Blog

Alright. Another long period of not blogging. >_<>I think I've been too fake lately. If that means anything. Sometimes I feel like the persona I've created for the web is entirely different from who I really am. Other times I feel like my actual personality in real life is fake and my reality exists on the interweb. Strange, huh?

I guess the main reason why I have two different personalities is because I tend to act differently with different people. Somehow, I'm just less friendly to those I know in real life? Or maybe I'm the same. Oh why do I have to be so philosophical?

Anyways, school has been more than stressful lately, so I'm glad I can be writing this. (:

Had a debate today which was pretty intense considering it was against the Debate Club Female President. >_<. She gave some good advice in the end though. So did Mr. H. Rights debate = talk about rights! Ahaha. Silly me for not identifying the main purpose of the debate first. It seems to obvious now that I look back on it.

It's funny, when I'm just writing a story and developing characters, I can easily type 3000 words in an hour. When I'm blogging however, it seems like I'm always stuck on what to say. Sometimes there are details I would love to include in my blog, but I find myself holding back due to how personal those details are. Funny how many others can just let loose on their blogs whereas I am self-conscious to what I blog about.

Ehh, It's not like anyone will really read into this. So why do I care?

Anyways, game review...for LA.

Luminous Arc (Series)

Game System: NDS

Pros // nice storyline :: pretty graphics and characters :: unique gaming system :: non-repetitive :: romance :: relationship system

Cons // copy of ff tactics/fire emblem system :: no character customization

----

Graphics - 10/10

Story - 9/10

Gameplay - 8/10

Environment - 9/10

Overall - 9.5/10

This is, without a doubt, one of my favourite RPGs of all time. Also, one that I would recommend eagerly to any RPG lover. It's a cute, lovely RPG that is worth your while.

It's lovely in comparison to games such as final fantasy tactics because unlike ff tactics, it doesn't make you go on boring quests. It also has character development for all the characters you control, so you go beyond just having the main characters developed while the rest of the characters are just mindless guys you control to kill things for you.

It's better than Fire Emblem simply because the characters are better drawn and better developed. Not that Fire Emblem characters aren't developed. They're just less developed.

Character favourites: Althea (LA2), Alph (LA), Cecille (LA), Fatima (LA2), Lucia (LA), Rina (LA2).
