Comfort Killing

pezRandomly played some TLR on PC again. I still haven't completed the PC version after all this time! Still at the point of Fallen/just before Undelwalt. Went around killing rares and generally levelling up. Had a chance to use Bel'kwinith's Fury but the mob died before Ghor unleashed it, woe. I've never seen that WA! Slightly boggled by how Lugh's Revenge and Megalore are also classified as "Weapon Art" when clearly it's from the Remnants Torgal and Pagus are carrying, not from their actual weapons. That means they'll end up with two WA each, I suppose.
For some reason I find playing TLR really soothing. >> Tried to get items for upgrading, but then I need to complete some guild quests for the dailys/weeklys for those things. And then I can farm for stuff. But bah, no necrotic metal until after Undelwalt, so there's quite a bit I can't do. I wonder if I can kill Fallen without using any WA, if I upgrade enough and make some awesome accessories for the characters. But by the time I get enough stuff to make awesome accessories maybe they'll be at a level that they'll keep pushing out WAs anyway...
But wait, apparently on PC they will only use WAs if the union morale is high...
Anyway. I need to kill Fallen, get through more of the story, hunt down Khrynia for more arts, and employ The Seven because I'm curious about them.
Might just be me being lucky last night, but rares spawned a lot easier than they did on the Box, it seemed...
Just to show that I know other games exist, twice I've tried to buy Castlevania (PS2 and DS), and twice Royal Mail ate it. The one on XBox Live looks too old, don't really want to play it. Portal on Steam would not work for me. Having checked the forums, it seems like I'm not the only one. At least I didn't have to pay for it, otherwise I'd be quite annoyed. And I'm going to play Loom and Monkey Island II later.
Listening to Eminem's "Recovery" album. I'm liking it a lot.
On the fic front, Dave seems to be changing his mind a lot. I need to go back and do some editing to highlight that he's just confused rather than inconsistent. I'm liking this fic a bit. The fact that I get to write about Qubine and Pagus helps. I don't write about them enough.

(I think the solution to me being unable to resist making unhelpful helpful comments when you're playing those is for me to be in another room. Possibly with headphones on. ♥)
