Another 3 in 1... blog :P

Yeah, I wanted to talk a little about the first problem, then I noticed the second one and just before deciding to write the blog, came the third :D I guess that progressive blogging :P

 

First thing's first. I wanted to talk a little about a JRPG called Riviera: The Promised Land. Now, I'm not a JRPG fan in any way but this title made me see why so many people are hyped about the gender. The sole reason why I decided to play this game in the first place was that it had something that almost all of the other JRPGs seem to lack... your party members return to full health after each battle. Maybe this isn't such a good motive, but it really spares you the frustration you'd normally get for not having potions/ money to buy them/ inventory space/ etc... so you can concentrate solely at the tactics part. After playing it for some time, I've noticed that the game is full of funny dialogs and even more funny decision making. For example I got this line after carefully choosing my answer(yeah, you play as Ein...) :P Besides this the game has another particularity which I like: you don't 'level' your character by earning experience as in most games, but instead your attributes rise when you learn new skills, which in turn are gained by practicing with a given object(I would have said weapons, but you can bake stakes and do other kind of stuff...) I've also heard something about a bath scene in the game, so I'm looking forward to that :P In any case if you don't have anything else to do or just want to try a JRPG then I guess it would be a pretty good choice.

 

The second 'problem' was something that I saw yesterday, while I was playing the up-mentioned game. I gave a quick glance out the window(as I was kinda busy with the game) and saw how the sky had a violet/reddish color and I've instantly remembered that I've made some cool pictures some time ago on the same subject. I made a quick search through my pictures and found what I was looking for. As this isn't something you see every day, I wanted to share the pictures with you guys, so here are the links:

Picture 1 (normal), Picture 2 (shade) and Picture 3 (shade). I should mention also that I didn't edit them in any way. I've only set my camera's white balance to shade so as to amplify the colors a little, nothing more. And if you're interested about the date, they were taken on the 11th of december, last year at 6am(don't ask me how did I get up so early :P ).

 

And finally the final subject... :P I guess you've noticed it already... I've changed my avatar. I said some time ago that I was going to re-watch Strawberry Panic to chance my previous avatar with another one depicting Shizuma(I really liked the char...), but something happened in the meanwhile. Although I've re-watched the whole series, I recently started watching another series called Nana and that kinda changed my plans... :P So without further ado, I now have a avy depicting Osaki Nana, the "perverse wild cat(...on the surface she looks proud and free, but she carries a incurable wound within her...)" as described by the other main character :D
