Vindictus II

Two new screens of Vindictus.

First shows the raid of 16 people killing one 'small' bear. He has 30 health bars, while normal boss has maybe... 3.

Here we have a screen that I find funny: my char in sweetie bear armor set and karok character in 60+ armor set.

Vindictus

Mostly because I needed a way to get rid of strange thoughts on my mind I started to play Vindictus Online.

It was meant to be a free 'small brother' of upcoming Guild Wars 2, I guess.

Nevertheless, so far the game amuses me to a certain extent.

But I know from past experience, that this would pass soon. Thankfully, I am not the one to be sucked into games.

Basically, Vindictus Online is a hack-n-slash hub-based game, meaning that you have action-oriented missions meant to be completed by a party of people. You gather your party or head out alone, choose mission and gear, push start button... and here it is, the hack-n-slash, thankfully it's more intelligent than just 'click-until-you-die'.

Bosses also usually present some sort of challenge, because you need certain strategy to defeat each of them. 

Another good point - most missions can be completed under 15 minutes, so it's not really a time-eater. 

All character classes present variety of play styles and battle animations.

Of course, my main character is a magician. Who'd guess?

That's how she looked at character creation:

And below I've added some random screens from ~lv.20

  

Kalafina - Progressive

I like Red Moon performance of 'Progressive' very much, better than studio version of the song.

 sadly, some people still think it'd benefit them to disable embedding of their youtube videos.

on relatives

had an interesting conversation today. ofc half of it was said jokingly

we've discussed who can be considered a relative, and my opponent said that only a person related by blood is considered a relative.
i indicated that by this logic children would be considered relatives, while a husband wouldn't.
my opponent said, well, then husband is considered a relative too, but only he and people connected by blood.
then i asked what if one had several husbands?
it appears that the one you love the most is considered a relative :)

such a relative term it is, 'relatives' :)

AAA 'Love Candle' Live

I like this song and this performance:

extract from skype conversation

[...] for example today i saw sci-fi earth in my dream, earth 40 years after meeting other sapient life in galaxy, they only started showing up at earth.

The otherworldly species were pretty much like humans, but they had more developed DNA, some telepathy and such and they regarded us like 'little stupid brothers'.
i was talking to one.

i was irritated by his attitude.

and he was saying that everywhere he went he met ppl who didn't like looked down upon, but to fix that mankind should evolve
ntn else to do if u r really inferior to someone
and also they brought their own mafia down to earth, the worst representatives came to earth to make a living from exploiting idiots
sth like that
u can imagine that society.

it was also mentioned that since we can't cross-breed, lots of human girls are employed as prostitutes [...]

Probably that dream was inspired by the madness that's going on in this country - the damned Euro 2012. When it ends I'd be relieved.

People who come here for Euro must perceive us the same way as above-mentioned visitors from another planet. Lol. It does feel like we live on another planet sometimes.

'Blue' llive (kor)

...and this is Korean version of BIGBANG's 'Blue', I like the editing, but guys screwed up at performance a bit.

also their stylist should be hanged on the nearest tree :)

2 songs

A new release from AAA 'Still love you'. They kinda repeat themselves, but the song is ok.

And this is yet another song - or a sample - that I liked. JOKER - 'Liar'
