Valkyria Chronicles
I finished playing Valkyria Chronicles that I borrowed from Cedric. Whee it was really super fun tagged with a meaningful storyline. I did not buy it when it first released because I saw the graphics and felt it was weird and lacking. But actually sometimes storyline can pwn graphics, and it really wasn't so bad afterall. Alicia rocks hehe, my top scout.

Aion Online
The most anticipated game of the year, Aion Online, was a total disaster for me, and many I believe. It totally failed.
Some quotes that i got:
"We are paying for beta service." -Belladandy
"I'm doing a quest with only 3 spawn points with a bot." -Mechsiao
"Castle sieges are done outside the castle." -Anonymous
Inclusive of poor services from gm, excessive botting and horrible lag at castle sieges in towns, Aion Online offers nothing good. The interface has tons of unfixed problems seen in beta. Too many loose ends not tidied up and the graphics is horrendous.
Chatbox has too many issues: spamming by gold sellers are minimized but still present. After typing the box doesn't close and you have to press enter again that makes it so irritating. Words can't be seen on many terrains due to fixed transparent chatbox background. By typing / and nothing else or some wrong command doesn't negate the error but still appear in the global chat. Also, switching chatbox has to be clicked, inconvenient in battles at times.
Graphics are sort of beautiful. Font and everything blends in well. But at close look, the terrain has poor quality paints and smoothness. Terrain is only nice when fully zoomed out and characters can only be seen in detail and nice at close zoom. It's impractical to zoom in just to see a character and zoom out to fight the monsters.
Botters are everywhere as well. Although there's a command to report botters, nothing so far as i can see has been done. The botters are still present though i reported so many botters.
Players are extremely childish for a paid game. And most legions are dead. Either filled with tons of botters so the chat is always empty, or the turnover rate of players are too high. Castle sieges will never work with only 15 legionmates on in most legions.
Castle sieges are extremely lag. At the gate, game crashes. Lag is everywhere except when you solo a monster. Might as well play some offline game then.
Enuff said.

Sweet Memories
Tomorrow's finally the day! The first of the last. And a new beginning of course. I'm still unsure of what to do after ORD, what to study, what to become. HAHAHA! Not that i've not been thinking about them, but thinking about the wrong things i guess. Not the good days for now at least...
Driving Test is nearing too. I'm just worried about screwups in the circuit. So far i've been in there once only, and two more times before the TP. Don't really have time to learn already as I'll be going overseas :D yay haha. First to KL, visiting the new shopping mall Pavillion, and for don't know how many @$%^@$%^ times petronas towers. Going Harbin in December, going to be the coldest place i've ever been, -20 degrees or so. Really looking forward to it. Also looking forward to Uni. I need a change of life.
Aion online's really good. But the lag is really a turn off. I might be selling it off soon. Hope i can find buyers. Should have known since the beginning that i played the wrong class, that i will not play till the end haha.
Been a while since i mastered All of me, the song i aimed to master. I'm going to upload it soon. Just finding somewhere to store the music. Now that i'm going to have more free time, I'll be uploading more songs i guess.
