End of Vacation
I finally – finally! – start school tomorrow. It was really hard to be on vacation for so long, especially as my wife had to go to school and work almost the entire time. I’ll definitely have a bit less time to play games… well, not really, because when I get back to work I’ll be able to do most of my homework there, ensuring that my evenings are free. Apparently, in the school quarters to come, I’ll have so many projects to work on at home that my free time will cease to exist, so I’ll just enjoy what I have for now.
I’ve been switching between a lot of different games on my DS and PSP lately, just to keep things fresh and to stave off the last bits of boredom. I did a quick playthrough of Dragon Quest IV first, then I started replaying DQV. I didn’t get too far before I started dabbling in Crash Bandicoot 2 (an old favorite), Final Fantasy 1, Disgaea 2 (PSP release), and I’m still finishing up Bowser’s Inside Story.
Apparently, Demon’s Souls came out today. Even though one of the two forums I frequent had a thread about it for some time, I completely overlooked it. I’m not sure whether or not the game is my type, but everyone playing it seems to be having a lot of fun finding hidden items and attempting to beat difficult enemies. It reminds me of a few games that I’ve never played, such as Diablo, but Demon’s Souls is from a Japanese company, which means there’s a much better chance that I’ll actually enjoy it. Not that I’m a Japanophile or Weeaboo or anything like that, but I tend to not enjoy most American RPGs. Hell, lately I haven’t been enjoying many JRPGs either.
