Wow. Yeah, for sure it’s a classic. I think Steiner is my favorite character… love his theme music. I finished my 2nd play through of it and now I’m playing Baldur’s Gate 1. Have you played this game? It was one of my early favorites and I’ve been playing it, on and off, since it came out around 20 years ago. I also have ff8 and that will be the next one I play.

Got BABYMETAL tickets for the end of August, the first show of the tour! ff9 currently I just got out of Ipsons castle so I guess about 2/3 of the way through… Ive done a lot of hot n cold though the Choco pieces (I have them all) still confuse me. Man, Zidane’s Thievery skill attack does a lot of damage. Anyway, after I finish this I’ll check out 8

Actually just started a new playthrough… currently in the Ice Cavern. I was thinking this time I’d end with Zidane,Quina,Eiko and Freya. I’m liking Amarant too with his throw ability. I’m used to it in ff7 and wasn’t expecting much out of it… very pleasantly surprised with it here in 9. Have you heard The Other One? I’m loving it.

Just finished ff9. My final group was Zidane, Dagger, Steiner and Vivi. Steiner and Vivi were dead when Kujas 2nd form was beaten. I was hoping that was the end of it only to to hear Kuja say “this is not the end.” Thankfully it was though. I think I’ll try another play through soon… there were so many abilities that I didn’t explore much or at all. Really nice ending cinematic.

Just recruited eiko… beginning to get some idea of what I’m doing now. The abilities system confused me for awhile

Had five off for Christmas… an artic blast came in so it’s below freezing every day… I play ff7 again, and make it through without a game over and then start up ff9… my level 7 group is heading for Lindblum, makes a wrong turn and is quickly annihilated by a grand dragon.

Yes, I have it. I had Quina but forgot about getting abilities for the blue magic… it’s been awhile. I decided to give the dragons a break… and go through the correct door instead. I forgot about chocobo Forrest too, so I’m doing some backtracking now and getting the group better prepared.

I love it. This is the first truly new BABYMETAL song for me. I started listening to them shortly after Metal Galaxy was released, so in a sense all the songs were new to me… but this one is actually genuinely new. Su sounds great, and Moa will get her due. 😉

Yes. I’ve pre-ordered vinyl and cd. Didn’t cost as much as I thought it would - 54 GBP basically. Of course, Koba gives an option for emptying your wallet by offering a lot of different covers.

I’m fine. Have some difficulties but, keeping it in perspective, it’s not like I’m in Ukraine. The lore stuff pretty much just flies right past me… yeah, ready for a new album.

Have you looked at “The Other One”? I guess it’s a positive… seems like they’re doing… something.

Hey, would you do me a favor and scrobble something? I’d like her to get enough listeners to be on the similar artis lists. Tomomi Midair World. Any song will do, though my favorites are Mark the end, Midair World and White Turtle Neck.

Enjoying it. Started over after getting to Treno and thinking that I’m starting to understand the abilities aspect of the game. Is there any big payoff of the card game? I play it every so often but mostly I avoid it. I did get a kick out of it when I got a clean sweep and took all the cards from one of the matches. Steiner is my favorite character so far.

Thanks. Same to you. I mentioned awhile back that I bought ff9 but that it wouldn’t play play on my iPad. Whatever the problem was has been fixed and now I’ve just left Lindblum heading for Burmecia.

And then this last Friday I had to take another cat to the vet because he started making weird noises and throwing up. I was thinking, not again so soon. After blood tests, x-rays and parasite tests they figured it must “just” be an intestine infection. He’s doing much better now and is eagerly awaiting the latest dose of medication which I’ll be applying after this message. Thanks!

Thanks. I’m in a service job, and as I’m leaving clients, I like to say “carry on” because I think it sounds funny. That’s what I’m doing now, carrying on… which I know could sound silly. Franky, which was his name, has always been my favorite… and for I don’t know how long he’d be outside the shower when I got out in the morning and I’d ask him if he was ready for breakfast. He always was, of course, and then I’d announce to the others “Franky says it’s time for breakfast!” He stopped coming to the bathroom for the last week or so and then one last time he was there when I got out of the shower. I was so surprised. I carried him to the kitchen and fed him and he threw up and in it there were red splotches. I had hope before because he kept his appetite to the end. Franky, from a kitten, had always been a fighter. Some things though are just so much bigger than any of us. Well, that’s it for now. Thanks, my friend.

I’m going to figuratively cry on your shoulder. I had to have one of my cats put to sleep today. I’ve had him for probably fifteen years… remember when he was a kitten. He was always Mr Alpha Male, and he’d make me so mad sometimes… he kept his appetite up to the end, which gave me some hope, but really it was just a case of him being a fighter. Anyway, there’s nothing really to say… just wanted to leave a message.

The only question mark in my mind to our consensus that it makes no sense for BABYMETAL to fold up now is Su and Moa. Maybe it’s the case that they’ve decided it’s time to end it. And if that is the case, it should be interesting what they do next.

Things I wonder about: 1) why is yui still on the amuse roster? 2) how long are Su and Moa signed up for? 3) Is there a reasonable explanation for no final marketing push is they really are wrapping it up? 4) what they will do if it is ending. Anyway, I don’t expect you to answer these... still thinking it’s nothing that would have even been noticed (relatively short break) if it hadn’t been brought up by Koba and co.

I’ve had both shots... no booster. Can’t see it ending now, for the reason I said. But of course I don’t know anything about it. Really I think it’s more likely for yui to be coming back, not that I think that will be happening either. I do wonder though why she’s still on the amuse roster.

Yeah, though I don’t think it’s actually the case. I can’t see Koba letting this end on an ambiguous note. I think he’d want to make sure everyone knew it was “the last live” so that we’d all have our dvds pre-ordered of the final show. Can’t see it ending like this and all. I think most likely they’re taking a well deserved break. I But of course that’s just my perspective... don’t know anything. If they do break up I wonder if Su and Moa would stay together... I really can’t see either of them without the other, even though I know have the talent to make it on their own. Anyway, it should be interesting.

Had a cup of tea with it this morning. Yeah hopefully at least one of the Budokan shows will be on Spotify. Can’t even imagine what a box set of all ten shows would cost. Had both COVID shots finished two weeks or so ago… COVID is making a resurgence here. Stay safe, friend.

I didn’t see it. I thought it was supposed to start at 9 am here but it actually started at 7… still not sure if I could have seen it anyway. Probably not, since the other live show streams remained up for a day or so and I don’t see any sign of this one. If you do see it somewhere, let me know. I restarted ff7… wish it had an automated journal feature. Anyway, in this current play through I’m at Wall Market.

Just ordered ff9 on the App Store and then after about 5 minutes or so of downloading I got,a,message that said the developers,need to,do something to,get it to work on this platform. It gave me two options: keep or delete. I chose to,delete… now,I’m wondering if I’m still charged for,it. Oh well I guess I’ll try 6.

OK just finished the game. Great overall, but atm I’m mad as can be... that move Sephiroth has that takes 5 minutes or so and involves seemingly every,planet in the cosmos... terrible... just terrible game design as far as I’m concerned. I went to the bathroom and when I came back it still hadn’t finished! Don’t get the appeal of that at all. But otherwise yeah very fun game. I think I might replay it to check out things I didn’t do this time around and then try 9. I’m sure I missed out on a lot of high power techniques but one that worked well for me was equipping Tifa with cover counter and deathblow materia... finished the game with Tufa as my primary punisher, Cloud as my main magic user and Barret as the tank whose primary functions were to stay alive and revive Cloud and Tifa when necessary.

I’m at the Northern Crater tracking down Sepiroth. I was tempted to try to squeeze it in this morning before heading out for work but figured it was going to be an involved process to finish this game out and turned it off. App Store has final fantasy 6-9 (that I recall, more I think) have you played any of these? Which is your favorite? I think I’ll play another one. The only ones I’ve played are 7 and 10.

I was going to mention Red... packs a punch. I also like Cait Sith. My streak just ended... got wiped out by the final boss of the temple of the ancients... demons gate I think is it’s name. Beat him the second time though. I didn’t know about the remake until a month or so ago... haven’t played it. Don’t think I could... all I have is my iPad and it’s not on the App Store.

I was surprised I managed to get the 2nd highest prize at Junon... thought I was doing really bad at it. I sent Yuffie packing... didn’t mean to... thought I’d play hard to get. Didn’t think she’d actually leave! I’ve been playing all the characters somewhat evenly but the two I’ve had in the party most are Tifa and Aeris. Just picked up Cid... played a lot yesterday. Have you played the remake?

Buggy’s broke down outside Cosmo Canyon. I’m surprised I’ve been doing so well. I haven’t had to reload yet... most surprising to me was that I managed to get the hp plus materia in junon... very forgiving game mechanics for that mini game. It really is a great soundtrack.
