The Depths Have Sunk
Oct. 18th, 2013 09:20 pmA short session tonight brought me out of the Deluded Depths and into the beginnings of Chapter 3! I'm very proud of myself -- all snouts, all memories, all Radula Rooms, and only one bottle missed. Like I said, I'm not going to stress out too much if I don't get 100% completion on the Victor profile, but I'm glad to have snagged all the memories. Notes on tonight's session:
-->You know that one area where you have to jump on invisible platforms to get to the last memory in the chapter? The one that gave me so much trouble the first time I tried it?
MADE IT IN ONE GO. :D So proud of myself.
-->For some reason, it looks like there's a word written on the -- well, boob -- of Alice's Siren dress. I happened to get the camera into a position that showed it, and -- well, I'm sure it's not actually a word, but it sure looks like one. Also, that dress really is pretty close-up.
-->Nearly fell off the slide, as I do. Fortunately I was able to quickly hop back on.
-->Having the Teapot Cannon in the first Colossal Ruin fight makes it RIDICULOUSLY short. XD Particularly since I've got the fully upgraded version. Love you New Game Minus! XD
-->Also, in that area, the piranha skeletons have scrimshaw on them. It's neat-looking.
-->Last Radula Room was also done with a minimum of pain, fortunately -- throwing bombs, keeping on the move, and using the Cannon helped a lot. I admittedly had to use Hysteria at the very last moment, but that's because I shrank when I should have dodged once then got into an awful position while focused on the last Menacing Ruin. Honestly, sometimes, your worst enemy in A:MR is the camera.
-->Graphical glitches ahoy -- when Nanny and Alice are driven away from the burning Mermaid, the guy driving them isn't actually holding the reins. :P Of course, you see him from the front for like half a second, so it's not too big a deal.
So yeah, next time we do the Vale of Doom and start the Mysterious East! Currently, we read fanfic I've written! Yup, as promised, I have a double update for you (first link is FF.net, second is AO3):
Chapter 18 of "Forgetting You"
Card Castles In The Sky
I hope you enjoy (although judging by the brief skim-through I gave of my first review, I may have to clarify something in Chapter 18. . . *shrug* We'll see)! In the meantime, I've got some tumblr RPing to do. . .
