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

THIS REAL WOMAN IS UNSTOPPABLE!

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.

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.

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 APPROVES!

Onion's Log, day 14.

He's drinking it again. The leather pants are back.

This stuff does weird things to people. I wonder what would happen if Prishe got into it...

Actually scratch that. That idea's scary.

THIS REAL WOMAN IS...SOMETHING!

Hey Diary,

YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT! KUJA DOES HAVE A TAIL!

And it's blond. Huh.

I wonder what colour his other hair is...?

He's so cool when he has the Jack Daniels. I thought he was a stuck up prick at first but get some booze down him and he's the best drinking buddy you'll ever have.

But I still don't know how old he is.
