Did you know the proper adjective for something made by or originated from elves is elfin? Neither did I, but Suikoden says it so! I met dwarves and elves!Continue reading

Ancient Summoner [3] – I Quit (Mostly)
It finally happened. Over the past week or so, I’ve been logging in to Ancient Summoner more and more rarely. I think I’m finally getting free of this drug, and it could not have been sooner.
Metro 2033 [2] – Chapters 3 and 4
Metro 2033 was a steady, but challenging progression over the fast few days. There’s a classical feel to it. It has great atmosphere and a good story, but it isn’t designed to just take you for a ride. You have to push through it.Continue reading
Suikoden [2] – The Story Begins
As I said last time, the detailed overview of the first our was a one time thing. My future writings on Suikoden, including this one, will be nowhere nearly as detailed. I’d like to focus on playing the game instead.Continue reading
Metro 2033 [1] – Dead City
It’s been a while since I’ve played a (mostly) mainstream game. Metro 2033 has been installed on my drive for a while now and I’ve been hearing good things, so I decided to give it a go. Worst case scenario, it won’t take too long to beat it.Continue reading

Might and Magic Book Two [18] – Completed
I was one dungeon away from completing the game last time, but by now, it was obvious it would take a lot of grinding or potion abuse to get past the last major battle. This is exactly what I did.Continue reading
Might and Magic Book Two [17] – The Elements of Time Travel
Damn, that’s a sweet title! As promised, I’ve been traveling through time and finally completing some long-standing objectives. It wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be, but I made some progress.Continue reading
Might and Magic Book Two [16] – Training Montage
I said I’d get stronger. I went through my notes, did some research, and BOY did I get stronger. As it turns out, your average high-level Might and Magic II party is miles ahead of your average high-level Might and Magic Book One party.Continue reading
