Moments of Permanence - December 19th, 2009

About December 19th, 2009

In which Sami tricks herself, but consciously 04:41 pm
There is stuff I want to do today.

But I also want to play Demon's Souls. Like, a lot. It calls to me.

Solution: When I have to make myself take a break anyway, for lunch, and am at a convenient stopping place for doing so...

... pass the game over to housemate.Dave. Demon's Souls isn't a great game to play for just a few minutes. If I'm going to let Dave play, in order to feel like I'm being at all fair, and to let him actually try to get somewhere, I ought to let him play for a good long chunk of time.

Which means that I *can't* play for a while, and will instead just have to get stuff done.

I have defeated the first two bosses in the Palace of Boletaria and Stonefang Tunnel. I also made it far enough into the Shrine of Storms to get the Talisman of God, which is pretty awesome - I'm kind of multiclassing it, and can cast two miracles now as well as my two spells. (Other than that, my character is kind of dex-based.)

Gametraders is awesome, really, because they are selling Demon's Souls. The game has no Australian release date and may well never get one. But because PS3 games aren't region-locked, imports work fine.

So they're stocking and selling imports. Basically, Gametraders will sell you good games.

(If you're in Perth, I recommend Gametraders at Carillon Arcade if you can get there. The guy who runs it is incredibly nice, and the shop struggles a bit sometimes despite having good prices and good service and not being one of the Evil Empires. Just don't rely on the Gametraders website to find out what they have in stock, because tragically the website is terrible, and he can't do anything about that, it seems. Call and ask. He's awesome and helpful and makes a policy of stocking good games even if they have to be imported.)
