a monkey wrench was thrown in the works.

yes, i’m talking about the toy.

let’s hope things will fare better soon.

yesterday was a lovely day which i gladly wasted (see above. emo. hahaha.). i veg-ed out for twelve hours playing FFXII. get a life you say? i got one, it ain’t much but it’s still my life.

got meself a deathbringer from ithuno at the barheim passage, killed tiamat in the henne mines, the white mousse (i spelt that right, yo) in the garamsythe waterway and the elder wyrm in the golmore jungle on the way to paramina rift. also levelled up my characters to my heart’s content by walking all the way from mount bur-omisace to rabanastre and back.

[my character’s levels were way higher. click pics (from mycheats.com) to enlarge.]

i always buy the official walkthroughs (i don’t like using my brain too much) when i play FF. by the way, get piggyback‘s authorised collection one which is way better, and not bradygames. i don’t usually trawl through sites like gamefaqs, which is a right pity as whilst the official FF books give you all the tips, secret or otherwise, avid gamers go the extra mile like telling people how to obtain rare/powerful items earlier in the game. sometimes killing powerful enemies can be frustrating and with the advent of youtube, i get to see firsthand how other gamers do it. it just amazes me how they could kill beasts with tens of thousands of HP when the party comprises one character.

korang yang non-gamers sure bosan kan? now you know how i feel when i am sitting with a bunch of people who are avid golfers.
