Quite a while ago I mentioned on Twitter that I was playing a game. More specifically, an eroge. But I should think it will likely be classified more as a visual novel RPG, if there is such a definition. And at the time, I did want to write up a review of sorts for it, but I lost interest. Recently, I started up the game again in an effort to get a few girls’ routes and endings, and so I have finally managed to bother getting some screenshots from the game itself and make a post for the game. In English, it is perhaps better known as “Beloved Kingdom”.

A little known fact is that despite my preference for RTS style games, I am generally not really into playing the games much online. The only difference was when Supreme Commander, much touted back then for its depth and style in the genre of RTS games, made its appearance sometime early in 2007. The reason for this post? 3 years (a little too short) after the development of the first, Supreme Commander 2 is finally going to hit stores soon, on March 2nd (for PC). The above screenshot is taken from the official website.

So I was just alerted to the new Bahamut summon shown in a video trailer for Final Fantasy 13, over at Wcloudxkumo’s blog. But the biggest thing about the video was not so much the Bahamut summon (it is really nice, Bahamut is still my favorite summon out of all the rest throughout Final Fantasy), but the revelation of this new character called Fang.

I had to wake up at 2:45 AM just to get myself ready for the pre-select (supposed to start at 3 AM local time here lol) and the servers only went live around 4 AM, good game! But whatever, I did manage to get into the Azphel server and create two characters. My main is a male gladiator with the IGN “Panther” and I look forward to playing you peeps there.

3 AM and I am writing this up? What is the world coming to!? But in any case, I was planning on sleeping at like 2 AM or so but I had supper finished around that time so I decided to go kill some boredom, and searched for some vids of Aion’s castle sieges since they were something that were touted as one of the main reasons to play the game, especially defining for players at level 40-50 (hearsay). And this is what I found.
