Howdy, y'all! Did you miss me?!
*crickets*
Right then.
I'm back from a lovely vacation in San Francisco. I didn't get to do everything I wanted to do, but I'm glad to be back. It's a unique but tiring city. Some of the many highlights include:
* The pub crawl. It was a blast. This was the 8th Annual 13 Bars of Boooozing and I was so glad to have survived it. All of the bars were fun and allowed us to get into the nitty-gritty of SF's various districts. My favorite bar was Brewcade, a bar with a massive screen that let me dominate in Smash Bros. Wii U. The Mint Karaoke Lounge was also fantastic because I got to sing Hilary Duff's "award winning" song So Yesterday.
* Japan Town was lovely. If I were to live in SF, I would try to live there.
* The food was to die for! Much to my surprise, it wasn't pricy.
* I got to hang with the lovely Deso "Lady D"! We went to a local restaurant and talked games and life. I love seeing folks IRL from here, so the chance to hang with her and her plus one was awesome in so many ways.
* Shopping...I spent way too much money on clothes and stuff.
It was a fantastic way to introduce me to the state of California and the city of SF. But, like I said, I'm glad to be back.
Ugh, so currently playing FFVII for the first time ever and the graphics have not held up. Not that they don't look good or I find them unappealing but god DANG it is hard to figure out where I need to go sometimes with these backgrounds. I even have the icons on to show me what are actually doors and everything but sometimes this 'platforming' is just mind blowing and how am I supposed to figure some of this stuff out.
I'm trying really hard to go 100% with no walkthrough but its been tough at some points...
That's something I never liked about FFVII, even when it was all of the rage. I enjoy the battles, the characters, the story, the music, and the setting but navigating through some of the game's dungeons and towns is messy and annoying.
