Update time. And I have Rants aplenty, believe you me. So.. Where to begin?
For those fo you who are regular readers, all 1.5 of you (I can't poll on here, and no-one sends me e-mail, so I'll stick with that assumption.), you'll know last time I wrote, things were... So so. Well, here's the changes in order of last whine...
Old e-mails gone forever. Though I found some REALLY old ones on my computer. Scary stuff.
I'm back on the Muck. Whoot. Now I just need to find time.
Contacts are still fried.
Still can't contact lost net friend. =( Hope she's ok... You Christian types, pray for her and stuff, would ya?
I'm kicking major booty in Utopia. Fear me.
A little drained, but not bad over all.
Weeeeell.... Lesse here. I have Black and White. More on that later. And Tribes 2. Not my offical copies, still waiting on them, but got the.. Um. Backups to tide me over.
Oh, and you know those two e-mails I had to write? Well.. Um... I'm a bad Stu. Still haven't written them. Sorry to the people they're too. I'll try to stop beign lazy/evasive tommorow. Hmmm... I'm supposed to work tommorow. Don't think it's gonna happen. Why? No car. I've lsot my abby. *Sniff* She's at the doctors. Geez... You don't realise how reliant on that icon of Freedom you've become, until you lose it... Or how attached. I speak to my car all the time... But that might just eb the crack...
Welll... Once more we're back to Black and White. So.. What do I think now I've played it? I honestly don't know... It's.. One of those things... You know how you just sit down to play snake or something, and the next thing you know, it's 3 hours later and someone who's not your Computer teacher is askign you to move? It's like that.. Only cooler. The creature AI really is amazing.. And maybe somewhat annoying. Mad e anew creature. He's a tubby little bugger who refuses to stop eating people. They fear him, and fear him good. And I'm trying to make him all good. The game's a lot like my dream. I mean, the interface isn't as intuitive and simple as actually beign a God, but it's the clsoest thing any of us have seen yet.
It can, however, be annoying. Why? Clicking stuff. Sometimes, you miss, and in trying to revert what you did or attempted, you do something bad. Like wipe out a structure ti took you an hour to make. So, just by making a few small mistakes, you can suddenly become evil. That was somethign that suprised me too.. For a long while in the game, I was good... It was weird. Oh, and when you read the statements saying that you can play the game without having to Micromanage, they're lying. Not entirely, but you do have to help your somewhat dumb villagers no matter what. Or maybe that's just because I'm a nice guy.... Sotp sniggering or I'll stab you all.
Hmmmm... Well, it's late and I want to sleep sometime before morning, but I think I will make a small mention... People who read this do realise this sin't exactly me, right? This is the moldrama/Kiljoy influenced Stu persona. I'm a lot nicer in Real life, honest.. Well, some of the time.. Hmmm... I have been a bit bitter lately.... Maybe it's time for a new Stu.. Nah, too much effort. Guess you're stuck with me.
