Played recently: Ball x Pit

Finished: Ball x Pit

Added to backlog: nothing

Well Ball x Pit turned out to be more addicting than I thought. I beat the game and then went back and did a decent amount of the trophy stuff (finishing levels with different characters and whatnot). I might go for the plat. The one thing holding me back is you have to do every level with every character, and some of them are sucky and will take a long time.

AI's gonna get us all isn't it?!?



Time for the old man who's sat plucking the keyboard of life to gently close the lid on the keys and just watch it all burn, I suppose.

I'm afraid we'll ultimately be the architect of our own doom - like the puppet master who is so preoccupied observing the movement of the strings beneath their own hands that they never even bother to notice what is attached from above. We integrate tools into our world and wield them as we will, but we - more often than not - become the servants to our invention rather than the master. We build our lives around things and then are surprised when they consume us. Life is a funny game.

Well, enough darkness, ha.

I've still got to finish up DQ8. For some reason I didn't find the map of the final area for the longest time, even though it's very close to the entrance. I got all twisted around, but now I've got it and I think I'll soon make my way towards the ending. What a fun time it has been!
