Day 22 AND Day 23: Feature that excited you most about Dissidia; Most Disappointing Dissidia Feature

[railenthe]

 

Day 22.

THIS REQUIRES ABSOLUTELY ZERO CONSIDERATION.

Quest Sharing.

When that news broke, I was delighted! I could make a quest to accompany crackfic! And I could share them!

Then we get the announcement that the MogWeb will not be provided in the US release.

BUT THAT’S OK BECAUSE STANDARD FILE-SHARING GETS AROUND THIS.

Now if only I could get around to finishing Red Riding Hood and post it (with a script in case someone wants to convert to a non-US region, since the bigwigs at S-E decided to make three separate regions that aren’t cross-compatible WTF S-E?), you could all see just what goes on in my mind.

…that is, besides the surprisingly dark turn it’s taken now that I’ve been writing a more serious!Mateus. The bastard is fun.

AND, AND

Because this was so short, I’ll use this opportunity to make up for the fact that I actually missed a day.

Yeah, I wasn’t conscious on the sixth. I had a bad migraine. It took a few days to let up and its subsequent hangover lasted another three days.

AND SO, HERE IT IS.

Day 23.

Most Disappointing Dissidia Feature (or lack thereof)?

I’m gonna be honest with you guys—when I realized I was behind—a week and a half ago—I started thinking about this question.

And thinking.

AND THINKING.

Considering how good I am at playing the Devil’s Advocate, I can’t really think of one.

I’d like a slightly more involved/bigger quest-creation system (only ten elements of each? I feel a little stretched. …oh well, I can alway make it a multi-quest chain a la any given MMO!) but as my parenthetical here says, I’ve thought of a way around that.

Wifi-muiltiplayer would have been nice, but considering how hot the system runs when you’re fighting in ‘Mecia’s castle against an opponent, something tells me the system would explode in your hands if it tried to render that fight without the PS3 as go-between.

…actually, I take that back. It’s really minor, but.

HAY SQUEENIX, WHAT HAPPENED TO USING ALTS IN STORY MODE? YEAH.

…Feeble, yeah, but it’s all I can think of. XD

Yes, I would've loved for my two pirates, my orginisation XIII cosplayer, Luneth (the ninja!!!) and the Elvaan in the bikini to take down 000. Because it would've been stupid. And that is why it would've been awesome.

REAL MEN WATCH AS REAL LADIES TRAPPED IN LOLITA BODIES BEAT UP DEMONS!

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

…ok that was clunky. XD

I defintely would not have minded for the Emperor of Heaven to take down that bastard.

I would seriously go back to that gateway if a patch enabled us to do that. Just to watch his technically un-holiness take down discord personified.

REAL MEN DO IT WHILST AUDITIONING FOR A ROLE IN ALADDIN!

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, Emperor of Heaven... *drools*

Playing 000 and making up crack stories for everyone, I am starting to make Kuja and Vaan closet hat buddies. Becuase as a platonic pairing it's incredibly stupid. WHICH IS WHY IT WORKS!

Day 10.

Okay, that Onion Kid seriously needs someone to just take him aside and gently tell him that he's only going to get his heart broken if he asks Prishe out. Provided he can muster up the courage to even ask her in the first place that is.

Speaking of which, I've got a question to ask her!

Day 10 (addendum)

Prishe's punches are as hard as her passion for me.

I wonder if Onion Knight can cast his blizzara spell so I can put some ice on my cheek...

THIS REAL WOMAN MAY COMPILE THIS STUFF FOR LATER POSTAGE....

Day 10.

Kinda hard not to notice a couple of blondes checkin' me out every time I turn around.

One of'em's just a kid, and the other one's a kid who thinks he's a man.

He takes a punch well, though.

THIS REAL WOMAN IS MOST AMUSED BY THIS TURN OF EVENTS!....

Day 11.

Sorry kid, but you're competing with the master. Yesterday may have been a bit of a screw up but today is a new day!

Because I have an ace up my sleeve!

Firion will kill me but I can always find him another Wild Rose.

First, the flower. Then a romantic recitation of Marcus' speech to Cornelia as he declares his undying love for her (I remember those lines like the alphabet!) along with my sharpened acting skills... She won't be able to resist!

That reminds me...where did I leave my cloak?

THIS REAL WOMAN IS UNSTOPPABLE!

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Dear Diary,

I am beautiful.

Nothing else to say but the fact should always be acknowledged!

My hair is a silken tapestry of lilac and silver, my face a sculpter's magnum opus and my body perfection itself!

Why must I be forced to travel with those who neglect to remark on this!?

P.S. For some reason I have awoken from the past 10 nights wearing trousers...Something is amiss here and I'll make sure I discover the cause soon enough. And if a certain brother of mine is involved then I shall deliver unto him some much required catharsis!

THIS REAL WOMAN IS CONSIDERING STEALING KUJA'S LEATHER PANTS.

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

Day—eh, whatever it is. I lost count after the leather pants incident.

Haven't had to punch Ziddy lately. I think I scared him off.

Kind of a shame, he's fun.

The kid's still staring, too. Maybe I should break out the bikini, see what happens.

THIS REAL WOMAN IS CONSIDERING DRAWING KUJA IN PANTS.

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Dear Diary,

That little street urchin doesn't know when to quit, does he!? The nerve---trying to give me advice on how to behave with Zidane! Look you dimwit, you don't even have a younger sibling so who are you to tell me what to do!?

Even if you're taste in hats is impeccable...

Excuse me, I believe I need to consult the sweet nectar that is that Jack Daniels concoction again. (Most obviously a beverage procured by the gods!)

THIS REAL WOMAN HAS NO CLUE...

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Hey Diary...

What's everyone's problem?

I mean Prishe is totally not into either one of those kids so why are they trying so hard to get her attention. Oh---and Kuja drunk is the most awesome thing you will ever see. He should get wasted more often.

THIS REAL WOMAN I CRASHIN' UR DIARY PARTY!

Day 16

Oh dear... Oh dear oh dear...! It's missing and I've searched the entire tent! There's no denying it, my Wild rose is Missing!.

I fear I may have embarrassed myself, too, I've already searched the Warrior of Light's tent and tried to find Lightning so I can see if she took it again... (Once more, Cecil caught me trying to see if she was in her tent and... gracious I just had to flee, red face and all!)

... :'(

-F

THIS REAL WOMAN JUST ALMOST INHALED A SANDWICH.

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

((I mean seriously, that was awesome!))

THIS REAL WOMAN DOESN'T MIND

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Day 14

I just remembered I still got the Wild Rose.

I can't believe I ditched my golden opportunity just to watch Kuja and Vaan laugh themselves stupid over their hats. Guys, you both look ridiculous!

Also I never realised before but Kuja's a natural blond. I didn't really care to know that but I guess it does add up...

But what the hell, Kuja!? You never show your tail in public! Or wear pants! WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY BROTHER!?

REAL WOMEN MAKE ROOM!

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

Onion's Log…

I haven't slept in three days.

They get along now.

But…

DO THEY HAVE TO BE SO DRUNK? And LOUD? AND LOUDLY DRUNK?
…at least they can almost sing.

REAL WOMEN DO STUFF THAT ISN'T SPECIFIC!

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Dear diary,

yor pretty...!

I jus want you to now.

Heeeehhh...

Did I just write heeehhh...?

Hey look, Vaan, I wrote heeeehhhh! LOOK DAMN YOU!

Whaddya mean you can't read? Of course you can read Terran, moron!

And why is that Onion Brat glaring at us?

REAL WOMEN PROVIDE TEAM 'WE'RE GONNA DIE' WITH LATIN DRINKING SONGS!

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

Hehehehe…that kid's armor's red like a lobster. I want lobestetetr. How do you spell lobbyster again?

If I can't rememembemr how to spell lobster I'll just order shardine shushi-eee.

I love swirly letters. Like 'e.' eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

REAL WOMEN LIKE WAFFLES!

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Day whatever I don't care anymore

Kuja just punched the stuffing out of Vaan for not reading Terran.

And Prishe is trying to stick her fork in Onion Knight.

I swear, I don't even know what's going on but damn if this Jack Daniels stuff doesn't make me feel good about it!

Vaan's kinda hot now that I look at him sprawled like a sleeping angel...

But Prishe is still hotter though.

REAL WOMEN ARE CONTINUING TO SPOUT RANDOM BABBLE

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Hey diary,

How long have I been out cold?

I'm pretty sure Kuja was a lot bitchier before he punched me.

Or maybe that's just the concussion talking.

Also...why is my little bro scared of cutlery?

And...did Zidane just wink at me?

REAL WOMEN ARE HIGHLY AMUSED!

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

((roflmao-ing now. Zidane the pimp!))

REAL WOMEN ARE DEVIATING

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

((When Zidane wants someone's attention he goes to great effort to get it!))

REAL WOMEN ARE STILL SPOUTING RANDOM BABBLE

Day 20.

...WHY CAN'T I STOP STARING AT VAAN'S ABS!?

They look damn good...

Huh, oh yeah, Prishe wants to talk to me about the grand Lindblum feast I mentioned the other day. About time she warmed up to my charms!

I wonder if Vaan would like to come too?

DAMMIT!

I LIKE WOMEN! WOMEN!

And...is it just me or has Kuja stopped being a douchebag lately? (Considering everything else that booze has done to him I wouldn't be surprised)

Re: REAL WOMEN ARE CONTINUING TO SPOUT RANDOM BABBLE

[railenthe.livejournal.com]

Oh hey.

I got such a headache today. Probably because of that Jack Daniels stuff Kuja has.

Never did catch that lobster. He ran fast. And kept saying he wasn't a lobster. Weird. I know a lobster when I see a lobster.

Ziddy mentioned something about a festival. Almost ignored him but there's food. I like food.

Re: REAL WOMEN ARE CONTINUING TO SPOUT RANDOM BABBLE

[toffeethesnob.livejournal.com]

Dear diary,

So in my first attempt to try and become a more amiable individual I offered to teach Onion Knight the proper way to cast flare. The judgemental look he gave me was uncalled for! I had no hidden agenda you little wretch, I was only looking out for your best interests!

I also tried assisting Vaan with his head wound; I cast my best curaga on him but he claims he is still suffering mild dizzyness. For some reason he believes that Zidane is making questionable advances towards him. I can't understand it; my magic should've restored him to perfect health!

I was even polite enough to attempt making small talk with Prishe. I asked her what her favourite play was, her response was "Bite me". I asked for her favourite symphony and her respone was "Bite me". I asked if she cared for a flare star to the face. Guess what her response was? Little bitch.

And the one person I thought I could rely on has proven most difficult. I gently took Zidane aside and informed him that I was aware of his secret (though the word is inept considering just how obvious it is!) and he fled from me as though I'd threatened his life! ZIDANE YOU MORON, IF YOU WON'T TRUST ME THEN WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO!?

Oooh... I need a drink.

A REAL WOMAN JUST READ ALL THIS

MOAR PLZ. NAOOOO
