I see a BaD moon risin'

That's because I waited to post my blog today and got all wrapped up in Tales of Graces F. Now the sun has gone to bed and it's past 8:00 pm. Thought I'd BaDer get started.

I'm actually having a lot of fun with this game. I'm playing on easy and even though Asbel dies repeatedly in boss fights I always manage to revive him and finish the battle.

My basic fighting style is to wiggle the left stick and mash O and X. Then if I get an Eleth Burst I mash on L1 until someone does a special attack. I'm 50 hours in and I I still don't know how to fight properly so playing on easy has at least allowed me to get through the story so far.

This may be the first Tales game I actually finish however next Friday is February 7th and that may change everything. Can't wait for Bravely Default.

Anyway that's it for me today. Mondays always put me in a dark place. As the week progresses my mood gets lighter and lighter and on Friday I know the world has only a short time to piss me off before Saturday and Sunday protects me from it.

Today's blog is brought to you as always by Pandas! Click the link below.

I want to go to this park!

I would probably be too chicken to hug a panda. Is that BaD or what?

I on the other hand would be too broke. $330 to hug a panda? Not unless someone else was paying for it.

to sort of quote Tom Robbins: "If button mashing can't do it, then fuck it, it can't be done."

I saw BaD moon risin' and automatically thought of and Andre "Bad Moon" Rison, formerly of the Atlanta Falcons.

I'm down with hugging a panda. I hugged a baby lion at the circus once, and the only donation for that was $5 for the pic.

Mashing the attack button is my usual strategy for playing most Tales games.

Hugging a panda would be so cool, but for that price I think I'd enjoy myself a lot more by buying a WiiU and donating whatever's left over to the zoo.

Sounds like a great plan to me

Oh, good. Someone else who has no frigging clue when it comes to the finer points of the Tales battle system! The only one I actually managed to do more than just button mash was Symphonia. I really want that HD remake, by the way.

I want that one two. Especially since someone bought my GC version.

That's one of the things I find myself making sure I don't overdue during bad. It's so easy to ghet caught up in other things and the nextr thing you know time grows short. Been hitting the dealine real close.
