Sheng Fui (and new icon post)

I just wanted cumuluscastle to see where her painting is now. It's under UV-shielded glass, just to make sure, although the room only gets indirect and tree-filtered sunlight.  

There is a distinct lack of cat on the perch, simply because I broke out the camera. Imagine a cat.
Aha. Behold a cat. Within scritch range when mousing. (If image is broken, it's here. What gives,DW?)




P.S. Why is FFXIII so painfully flawed yet excellent in parts? It reminds me of X-2; a curate's egg. Which is unsurprising, as they came up with XIII while working on X-2. 

I finally finished. Without spoilers, I will say that (a) Fang/Vanille pretty much makes up for any of the game's shortcomings for me (CANON! PLOT-ESSENTIAL F/F CANON!), and (b) it's a shame Vanille's voice was the one "miss" on the English dub. Her seiyu is better. But Fang's ...wow. 

Note: Please no late-FFXIII spoilers in replies; at least one person reading this hasn't finished.

I agree with Dagas -- I just found the world to be too flat. Not enough places to explore or people to get to know. One of the things I love about a good RPG is the sense that I'm discovering a world, its people, its history. (This is something that FFX, for example, really got right. Also Dragon Age, my brand new obsession.) On the other hand, the lack of outside distractions meant that we got to know the team really, really well, and we saw strong bonds develop between them. So I guess it depends on what we're looking for in a game.

Also, Fang. Yay, Fang!
