Value of My Dollar

Just a light hearted thought bubble for now. I was just browsing some game blogs and saw something mentioning World of Warcraft. And I was just thinking back to this time last year when I was actively playing. I want to go back to it. But I have one problem...

...actually there's more than one problem...it's more like 20...

I have too many unplayed games! Somehow I managed to buy a ton of games this year thanks to peer pressure (in a sense) and actual titles that interested me and nostalgia. OMG did nostalgia bite in the bum this year. I BOUGHT Oregon Trail 4 and was this close to buying Super Solvers Treasure Trove.

On top of that I now have co-workers who want to play MMOs with me and I just don't have the time thanks to hobbies. Plus I have a long list of games that I still need to finish.

The List of Game Titles (if I can remember them all)
Age of Wonders 2 (PC - my coworker gave this to me. D: Why do they keep feeding me!?)
Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic (PC - why!?)
Knights of the Old Republic (PC - half way through)
KOTOR: 2 (PC - most of the way through...not finishing)
Dragon Age (PC - finished one playthrough. I want to play again.) Replayed 3 times.
Dragon Age 2 (PC - Making good progress with my first character). Reyplaying
Sims 3 (PC - I keep making characters and not playing.)
Champions Dream (PC - a dumb girly horse game.)
Bella Sara (PC - and even dumber, girlier horse game. I like them both okay!)
Oregon Trail 4 (PC - I don't think I'll really finish this one.)
Jak and Daxter (PS2 - half way through not going to finish.)
Jak and Daxter 2 (PS2 - not started)
Jak and Daxter 3 (Ps2 - not started)
Disgaea 2 (PS2 - Most of the way through)
Guilty Gear AA etc (PS2 - Probably not going to bother playing more.)
DDR Party - (PS2 - My exercise routine?)
Folklore - (PS3 - fin)
Valkeria Chronicles (PS3 - started.)
Ocarina of Time (GC - I stopped at the water temple...AS USUAL!)
Majora's Mask (GC - Well...I'm replaying it.)
Harvest Moon Sunshine Islands (DS - this game will never end.)
Avalon Code (DS - I made progress. My opinion is still the same though. I made my hat MORE awesome though).
LOZ: Spirit Tracks (DS - at the water temple...why do I always stop there?)
Rune Factory 2 (DS - barely started)
Pokemon Soul Silver (DS - Up to the League)
Harvest Moon: Grand Bazaar (DS)



And this doesn't count my iPod game apps or the Big Fish games I love to download and play.

And I want to play these before buying or playing more games so I can get the full value of the dollars spent. :(

Busy Busy and Art Exchange

Image
Work has been all consuming of my time and a drain on my creativity. I still get bursts of creative energy from time to time. Some things I've made since my last post: Rhinestone Necklace                     Rhinestone Shoes Crochet African Flowers Stuffed Fox Touching up VN sprites Written the First chapter of the next two VN routes So more productive than I give myself credit for. :) Also exciting is that MAX (Multi-Artist Exchange) has been revived again after 2 years. I've been a part of this art exchange for over a decade. We're open to new folks joining so check it out at  https://comicadia.com/ . I have been working on updating the guide for them. Last night I purchased some of the fabric I'll need for my massive ballgown. Good golly miss molly. I had to get 19 yards of tulle. NINETEEN! That's almost 50 feet of fabric. What have I gotten myself into!? It also got me going into pattern reading whic...

Game Whining: Kingdom Hearts

So I'm not great at "gaming" although I spend many hours in the activity. I'm not trying to be awesome or really think too much about the game play or strategy until I get stuck. I've started playing Kingdom Hearts which I got for Christmas a couple years back. I started it and had to put it down for school and other games. I have been meaning to play it and now I am. But there is so much I HATE about this game that I must complain about here. We're going into rant mode. Controls This is a classic example of a game where there are too many control options for battles. I've played the game for several hours and usually after the first couple of hours things become second nature. I fear it may take more like 10 hours or more before I get used to these blasted controls. First off they don't make much sense. It's as if they were trying to combine action based combat with menu-based JRPG battle. Which CAN work, in certain cases but usually there...

August Begins

A new month. And ever closer creeps my personal deadlines for these costumes. October was the goal for the Warden and Tali. However, since I've taken on another project for Halloween, I'm scooting Warden and Tali out to November. And Alistair...the poor chap...hasn't had any construction done what so ever. :( I have all supplies too. Anyway, I've made a bit of progress on each costume here and there. Tali: I took the shoes out of the feet and got inserts to put in there instead. Warden: Put more studs into the Jacket. Wolf Queen: Made the Circlet, got the beads for the necklace, made some ears and started on the tail. Got some knee high nylons to make the feet. I've also had quite a few interviews the past couple weeks. I hope to start a new job soon. *pleeeease, better pay, better environment* Anyway, I've also been going to D&D sessions on the weekends. ...I'm learning how bad I am at improv. LOL. I hope to finish the Wolf Tail this week ...
