Life have reach normalcy. To get some irritation and anger out of my system I went and played Devil May Cry 4, I had been strangely missing that game and I had only spent some 5 hours with it. Not like Oblivion (54 hours). But I went ahead and played for an hour and a half. There is only so much I can play of that game before the constant adrenaline and fustration get the better of me and I give up. But today I had the joy of no less that 3 boss fights! Yes! And one of them ended up with me having a new favorite pairing Nero/Credo. There is just enough bitter coldness and snarky comments between them to hint at something. Also, I kinda like Credo. Of course compared to Nero and Dante his awesomeness pales, but hey. You gotta be fucking good for it not to next to those two. I still really love the graphics. And on some level I love how you can just shut your brain off, since the game is mostly run around and kill shit.

Mm my current play list fits my mood well.
Wish you were here - Pink Floyd
Hey You - Pink Floyd
Tears and Rain - James Blunt
Mad World - Gary Jules
Angel - Lisa Lynne (I know it is not hers but that is the version I have)
For having just spent an hour kicking demon ass, I am very mellow. I don't know if I should say 'fuck you, this hurts' or 'meh, should have seen it comming, not like you haven't done it before'. Yeah. I can't say it is a long story because it is not. But it is drama nobody need. In short? I am over-reacting. But it fucking hurts. Somehow I feel like there is salt being rubbed in wounds here.

On a happier note, I like the sound track to DMC4 too

First of all, yes I did it!  Savin' Me is now over 10 000 words. And I have written close to 17k words this summer. This might not seem like a lot to some of you. But it is me we are talking about. And Savin' Me is still at the establishing relations between the main character's kind of thing. I have material for at least another 10k words. My new goal for this story is to bring it to 10 chapters by NaNoWriMo. I am currently writing chapter 6.

Devil May Cry 4 have been bought and played rather a lot of. First impressions? Pretty. The graphics are just so so sweet, I mean I love it when you call tell what kind of fabric the characters are wearing. I found a couple of costumes I want to make. Credo's uniform and Nero's outfit. I am in love with the cocky banter between Nero and the bad guys. There is even a special button for taunting while you are fighting. As for the plot line and the player experience it is very straight forward.  Watch pretty cut scene, fight monsters, run around, fight monsters, watch cut scene  run around, fight monsters... and so on. Maybe it is just me being spoiled with Oblivion, but this does get a bit repetative. I doubt I could play this game for 6 hours in one sitting the way I know I can with Oblivion. As for how hard this game is, holy shit yes! I am playing it on human (the easy level) and while I am not dying much I do not score high on my style. Style is how you get points to buy more tricks for. There are so many combos to try and they are so hard to remember. Honestly who remembers 'press Y pause Y and then quickly tap Y' when you are fucking fighting this


But over all I like the game. It gets a 10/10 for prettyness, a 3/10 for plot (at least so far as I am) and 10/10 for challenging.

In other news I spent a large part of this weekend with Stubbs, Sibs and Claire. I found a fellow Tony Jaa fan in Stubbs. It was rather fun. I watched Tom-Yum-Goong when I was in Iceland and I recommend that movie for everyone. It is great in that fun way.

I can't believe it is time to go home soon. It will be nice. My brother and the rest of my larp group have been playing in the forest this past weekend. Sounded like they had so much fun. I wish I could have been there with them. I really am missing larping with them, and I am starting to realize that I might not get to larp that much with them anymore. Chances are that I'll be far away whenever the larps are going on. But I am looking forward to seeing the family again and playing around sewing all the stuff I want to sew. Claire have almost talked me into joining the Deadlands larp here. But I don't know.
