Honestly I would say 2,5 stars, but since I don’t have half stars, it’s three :] It was your regular HOG, but I guess since it’s a bit older the cut scenes didn’t load properly and where super blurry which made it look horrible. Apart from that? Same, same but different :]

So I have been asking myself, am I or am I not going for 100%. As you can see, I did do it. But in the process I realized once more, that I dislike the mah-jong parts. I’m doing this because it’s a HOG, right? Not a mah-jong. Oh well. At least I didn’t get a penalty for them reshuffling like nearly EVERY time ;)

Recommendation? Huh, yeah, guess so :]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! It’s over! It’s done! It’s vorbei, aus, Ende, Schluss! *sob*

You know these games, that you wish you never played, so you could just be innocent and unknowing about it and replay it and enjoy it to the fullest? Yeah, well this is it! It love my Mass Effect to pieces, but THIS! Is purrfect on so many different levels. It made me laugh and sigh (and use “Aaaaaaw” way too much), it filled my little heart with love and joy – and broke it as well. It made me happy – and realize what I didn’t have and hate my life for not being like Dream Daddies life.

And all, ALL off these Daddies are just awesome. Even the ones you don’t really end with. Because of whatever reason. Right, I can’t spoiler, so I WON’T! And – Oh Man! – this father/daughter relationship! It made me realize how awesome a father/daughter relationship can be. It’s just super. I even said to my dad, I would totally make him play it… if it was maybe a little less about dating dads, yk? :D

Normally a game would TOTALLY lose star points for unachievable cheevos, but this? Nope! We have this one cheevo, that is apparently not intended to be done – at least 0% of steam players have it – and I can live with it, without stealing one of these well deserved stars. Also: I abandoned two cheevos. I was at this point where it was abandon the game or abandon the cheevos and I started to be really frustrated and annoyed and then… I just dropped it and moved on and no, I don’t regret it! I won’t go back for it. I am happy with it and that makes me super happy!

</p>Recommendation? No! No, this one is a Queens order! If you have an ounce in you that would be willing to play a gay VN, then you just have to! <3

Yeah, I can’t possible judge this one. So it took me long to finish this. I’m about two months late, have spent 21h in it and am satisfied to be done with it.

Let’s start with the idea behind this game: It’s about death. Not just any random death but the death of young ppl, mostly because off some disease which is never named, but that’s not the point anyway. It’s about how the ill handle their situation and to follow them on the last steps of their life. Now you probably think this gotta be super intense and dark and such, but it isn’t. I mean, ofc there are moments that get touchy but especially the original parts (1 and 2) never got that tight. The first part is about a boy who enters the hospice part of the hospital for the first time and encounters a real quiet girl. They eventually run off together and it goes downhill from there. The second part plays earlier in time and is about a girl who first pushes everybody familiar away only to befriend with the girl from part one and eventually come to terms with her situation. Kinda. Although both parts seem full of crying potential, I didn’t. I first had to play the first extra – which is about the ppl that stay behind after part two – that made me cry. And the extras mostly follow that idea. Yeah, there is this one, set in a… er fictional world full of adventure, that lacks the depth, but the others where way more intense. Like the part about the childhood friends that worked in an elderly home because the parents of one did and in the end they found the hospice. It seemed totally unfair and sad. Also, and this was the one, that probably was the most difficult for me: Sumires story. It’s like they are telling me a part about myself – obv without me being on the verge of dying -, but it just… Ah, I dunno. It’s about a girl who kinda falls out of society and plays games to pass time. Which I in a way do and then not at all. Conflicting. Anyway, I liked the Extras mostly more, because they were more intense. And then again they weren’t (aka the fantasy and the closed eyes part).

Thank you, Tsupertsundere, for challenging me to it!

Recommendation? Yes. Even being emotional vulnerable, this one works out :)

Cat Story ahead
The oddest thing happened today. Tizio entered the room, while I was intently staring at the screen – yk cheeking out things on sg and such. So I might have noticed him entering but at the same time nooooot really I guess. Suddenly he does his high pitched squeaking – and I’m getting such a fright, it’s giving me a start! OMG! How can a tiny baby cat give one a fright with a high pitched squeak? Yeah, but he did… And then he hopes on his blanket and is all cuddly and purrs and those these kneading thing. Oh god, he is SOOOOOOO adorable, even when he startles me!
Another Tizio part: I… ehm… accidentally hit him the other day with the cat litter shovel. Really, it WAS an accident, I mean, is it my fault he can’t wait for me to finish cleaning his loo and he has to jump into it and like right into the shovel? Just so you know, he didn’t jump in there because he had to do some business, no he just did it to catch the scratching thing in there… which then hit him in the face! o.o So yeah. I was real sorry, even though it wasn’t a hard hit or anything. But ever since he is super careful about the whole cat litter cleaning. Until yesterday, he suddenly jump really into it. Normally he walks in the front but – uh right, I can clean the loos without taking off the lid, so I don’t. Anyway, yesterday he sat next to one and first stood up to look in and then he just jumped inside. He’s a big cat, remember? It was like he had to do a full stop and squeeze himself in there. But yep, he did it! As reward I scratched the bottom part from the outside and he started digging furiously in the litter to find the culprit ;)
Also something about Ameno, so he’s not left out – because we can’t possible do that! Ok, most of you probably noticed it’s autumn/fall already. Kitties noticed it as well. Mostly because they get to go way less outside. Yeah, we all know how little cats like water – not counting the exceptions! But the other day it was nice and nearly dry, so we went out. And Ameno weasled around the garden like he always does. I tried occupying myself a bit while they enjoyed the piece of freedom. He suddenly was right next to me and wanted to wander off into the veggie garden part, which he is not supposed to do. I always chase him out of there. So instead of doing that part, I shooed him off. I gave him a gentle push with the rake and he went off like a rocket. It was so hilarious too watch. Even my mum came out just to make sure he didn’t bugger off in front. But it was like I found the button for the pure unit and off he went!
In the same session he sat underneath our walnut tree and meowed up. Obviously to get a bird to come down – yeah, again didn’t work out. But I just couldn’t see the thing, so it seemed really awkward. In the end I only got a glimpse of the birdie when he flew off. Poor Ameno. No birdie wants to play with him. Tizio on the other hand always tries motivating Ameno to hop around the garden with him, and chase him and all that. Mostly doesn’t work out though o.o

This week I’ve been again out and painting ceramic. Since I learned my fav aunt and her bf are coming a month before x-mas to Germany, I decided it’s the best chance to actually get them presents, so they can take them home. Otherwise I’d probably just… erhm… forget it :/ So, he is really into Bumblebees – which he infected me a bit with. So, I made a mug with… surprise! Bumblebees! Although I painted it with German bumblebees. Was too lazy to look up British ones lalala So that’ll be it next week.
The rest is me being anxious and avoiding ppl. I feel like… well, I don’t really know if there is this saying in English. But if you feel like curling up and stay for yourself, we would hedgehog-up? You know, with being spiky towards the outside and all cosy on the inside. Yeah, bizarre one, I confess. Anyway, wanted to be like that, but didn’t. Instead had again a friend over. Watch some things – which is real nice if you would rather not engage too much with ppl :) Also nice four my sweater. So by now the front part is also nearly done! bounce
Yep, now pics!

2/3 of the Salt/Pepper shaker. The 1/3 that’s not present got broken at the studio and they try fixing it and I hope for the best, but aaaaaah! sob
Good thing about it: I get s piece for free! bounce

The mug fitting to the plate I posted… a short time ago :]

So much from me :)
Have a lovely week!
