smallest possible cloud [08 Feb 2010|01:55pm]
[ mood | anxious ]
[ music | leona lewis -- better in time ]



that is today's forecast )

thanks to [info]panjapanja for the tiny cloud ;A;(\ i love tinycloud with all the love in my equally tiny heart T__T

there will be more when i get my hands on the smallest possible sephiroth :( sorry
if you scroll through my overcast journal you'll notice a trend more than usual
i'm coping with nomura being a jerk all MONTH ;___; square enix is really breaking my heart in 2010

relevant articles i can't bear to recap:
-towns are too much work
-SERIOUSLY HAVE YOU SEE ALL THOSE TOWNS?
-"FOR THE TIME BEING" is a phrase that means i'm up for future heartbreak as well

that last one comes from Famitsu's 8-page Cloud tribute, which is otherwise very lovely.

i got most of those links from [info]panjapanja too so you can blame her for this whole post

all of this wouldn't hurt quite as badly if he hadn't announced that they had a highly anticipated unannounced game in the works for 2010

my new manta is "remake final fantasy vii for the ps2"
or possibly "man the fuck up square enix"

so i guess i'm posting extra clouds to mend my heart

i'm also coping with having no free time to do fanart or whatever, spending every moment of my life working on my thesis or refreshing twitter ;A; (i am around twitter a lot, ahvia@twitter, but i can't advocate following me there unless you really want to read the 140 character versions of the exact contents of this journal plus the occasional mundane note of activity)

SO with these time constraints in mind this is probably the last post I'll make before Katsucon, which I will be attending! I'll be cosplaying FF7 Cloud on Friday and Saturday. let me know if you wanna meet up! most of you i'd be seeing already have my phone number, but if you need it let me know anyway. this is my last free weekend till may.

[ mood | not sure ]
[ music | my hands by leona lewis duh ]

oh my god ever since this year started i've had such a weird range of moods. from manic hopefulness to dismal despair, up and down, every day, over a truly absurd variety of topics. what the hell is going on here. also i seem to have no grasp on prioritizing the importance of things that i'm going psycho about; everything is of equal importance. i'm FEELING a lot but it's not necessarily bad. i'm crying a lot but i'm not necessarily sad. this is my last semester and i'm both totally ready to be done with school and not ready AT ALL. my thesis is going maybe well, maybe not well, i can't tell, it'll be a surprise to everyone-- and even that's kind of exciting. i'm excited. i think.

i'm finally NOT REALLY SICK ANYMORE so that's definitely put me in a good mood. Finally having a full sleep where I'm breathing well throughout the night is a big mood-booster. I wonder if I had the flu? My neighbor first knocked on my door to ask if I was alright on Monday, and to scold me for not going to a doctor. I told him I didn't think I had the flu, because it was just a fever and cough and sore throat and nausea but I could still like...move. He was like THAT DOESN'T MATTER. I think he thinks I'm stupid and incapable of taking care of myself, and he's probably right. =A=

I've been listening non-stop to "My Hands" by Leona Lewis ever since I heard it in the FFXIII trailer. I even actually BOUGHT the mp3. with money. not to condemn myself but i haven't bought music since 2005. i only learned recently that amazon.com sells mp3s, and since mp3s are what my mp3 player PLAYS this works out nicely for me. (if itunes sold mp3s i would have been buying from itunes)

i also got "I SEE YOU" by leona lewis because lmao im gaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
avatar is gay i know but i want to go see it in imax 3D right this second ohhhh my eyes are hungry

perhaps tonight i will sync with a mini-burger at NY burger (all of the flavors)
now you are pregnant jake sully

actually i can't sync with shit i have short hair
this explains a lot.

^^^^^^^ SEXY NEW FFXIII English Trailer ^^^^^^^^^^

I LOVE THIS TRAILER
it's really well put together, and I even love the song. I've been hearing not-great stuff about FF13 lately, but i'm a sucker for the sexy english lipsync and what sounds like GREAT dubbing, i... i'm getting really excited for it again ;A;(\

and is this the best scene or is this the best scene:

"Do you believe in Lady Luck now?!"
"Yeah, LADY BAD LUCK."

th-this adorably bad dialogue is pretty nostalgic isn't it
i'm getting emotional for it idk

though i'm looking forward to FFXIII, this related kotaku article is not okay at all:

"There is enough discarded FFXIII material to make another game."

HMM REALLY IS THAT SO. ANOTHER WHOLE GAME. A WHOLE FF GAME MADE FOR THE PS3, DISCARDED, ISN'T THAT SWELL. well i hope you get around to making another game some day. maybe use that material in vsXIII so we can ~move on~ to ~other projects~
lmao to quote [info]shotas: @ahvia FFXIII INTERNATIONAL CONFIRMED JAPAN ONLY

no doubts about this

also if you're interested, there's a big fuckin black possibly windowless bus with Lightning on it cruising around San Fransisco right now, gathering lines of people who would like to I guess get inside it and play FFXIII.

http://twitter.com/PlayFFXIII

i would get on any bus with any FF character on it
and never be heard from again

I'm using some meager power rations left on my laptop battery while I wait for my AC adapter power cord to come in the mail (tomorrow) ;-; i was gonna go up to the school to get some work done today but two nights ago i started feeling sick and now i'm... sick. i dunno what it is, yesterday i would have sworn it was the flu but today it just feels like a cold.

anyway i'm probably still going to class in an hour just cause i hate to miss the first one. i also probably won't let being in class get in the way of all the psp ff7 that's been happening today

happy new year! [01 Jan 2010|10:14pm]
[ mood | sleepy ]
[ music | lord of rings ]

the new year, the new decade... was welcomed in with anime

i'm really behind on LJ right now and i have a massive post-con headache but i just wanted to say how much fun i had over new year's eve and today (today was spent at local Austin convention, Ikkicon) with [info]panjapanja, her adorable boyfriend, [info]beetlefreak, my brother, and my awesome mom who made everything happen for us. i love you guys so much *A*

my bro and I also got autographs from johhny yong bosch on devil may cry 4 and dissidia! ♥__♥;;; i haven't gotten anything signed by an english voice actor in AGES, but like everyone else i have a massive girlboner for his voice in video games aaaaa

i realized that i forgot to look at resolutions so here they are from last year:

2009
- lose weight by february (lol) (nope)
- do a good film next semester/planning for my thesis (kinda!)
- apply for some internships i GUESS (...no, but one fell in my lap! we'll count it.)
- stop being a pussy and finish english crisis core (n-no. i still can't even listen to the ayaka song)
- work on my communities, make them cool ([info]used_potoin is pretty cool, [info]error_terror is still dusty)
- finally get to try korean bbq (CHECK PLUS)


upon toasting with my friends and family my resolutions for 2010 are apparently

-"graduate and get a good job and and that they will remake final fantasy seven"

i will call that last one "a high resolution"
i think that's all i need. 2010 will be exciting one way or another!

WELL WELL WELL
i excluded myself from the results this time, because we already know i'm my own best friend and always win.
as always congrats to you [TOP 10] everyone else vying for my virtual affection, better luck next time i remember to consult the wizard

one more thing that is important, Case of ShinRa novella has been translated and posted here
it takes place during FFVII up to the beginning of AC, with some cute Turks moments and probably more Rufus development than he even had in game.

if this is my last post of the year, FAREWELL 2009! you were um, busy, i guess, halfway taken up by my thesis and me and jisuk's film from last year. then a fairly relaxing summer, peppered by the death of every celebrity. i'm thankful for the friends i have who still willingly hang out with me year after year, and my friend and family who will be ringing in the new year with me! ... i'm having trouble forming any other thoughts, that aren't related to either brutal animation work or the cruel teasing hints of an FFVII remake announcement looming in the new year, but 2010 will be a strange new land of unexplored territory no matter what happens - i'll be a graduate, free to make my OWN DESTINY

and

I'm back from visiting my relatives! We had a nice relaxing Christmas day, and then went to see Avatar on Saturday, which was ~awesome~ despite the cliche story and YOU THINK YOU'RE SO SMART MMMISTER SCIENTIST stereotype characters. I've never wanted to watch a Making Of for anything so badly. *A*

On the drive back today I finally beat KH 385/2 Days. HOLY CRAP shit got a little crazy at the end;;; i was pretty impressed. though i thought they resolved a KH2 plothole at the end and then i think it didn't? but i need to play KH2 again so i can remember what happened and idk it's an endless circle of carefully crafted confusion but i feel like things are falling into place. i don't have the brain capacity to be a scholar on more than one SE franchise. :'(

anyway then i came home to this
http://rpgland.com/rumors/nomura-stirring-hype-pot-again/

"Ol’ Tetsuya’s doing what he does best again: stirring things up with foreshadowed announcements of announcements. In the most recent Gamega magazine, amid speakings of his other projects, he’s asked what he’s most looking forward to in 2010. Nomura declines to answer directly, saying that he can’t yet say the name, but it’s a yet-unannounced game that many people are currently anticipating and that he’s received personal requests about. He foresees a huge reaction to its revelation. What his team is up to is anyone’s guess, and guessing is probably just what he intended with that hint drop. Well 2010 is practically here, so let the guessing begin. Again."

(i know it COULD be kh3, but shut up just shut up)

baby clouds and baby leons (preferably in his charlie brown shirt, throw on a few belts to KH it up)
cloud can either be in his green t-shirt at 13 or he can be a tiny warrior with zack heeheeheeheehee oh gosh /)A(\

but this zack still only exists in the past ........ seriously if he doesn't make it to the end of this game i don't think i can handle that much sadness inside of my psp

here's a few screencaps of Crisis Core models from the Rinoa Model Viewer I mentioned before. Close-ups of baby cloud, zack, sephiroth, and a few map shots.

thank you all who participated in the huge nerdrage discussion from last time, i had a lot of fun with that thread *A* it was a nice break from work.

Thanksgiving weekend was wonderful, as always since I've been in college, [info]kanna's family was sweet enough to have me over for dinner where I stuffed myself till I looked like this, and Friday and Saturday were spent jammin' with current and former members of ~new jersey~. back in NYC, my party members and i on saturday night actually found ourselves bar...for about 10 minutes... but none of us drink...so we went to starbucks and got frappuccinos.

last wednesday, christmas came early for me, when [info]animekittysama gifted me with the character models AND maps for all of Crisis Core. When I posted about paper craft a couple weeks ago, THIS is exactly what I wanted, and, like an angel of ff7 fandom, she alighted in the community and granted my wish. I'm ecstatic beyond all reason, though I'd be moreso if my copy of Maya hadn't mysteriously stopped working (it says my license is no longer installed.) Assuming that program would even be able to view these. :( so i can only view characters in that default-arms-out-like-they're-being-searched type pose using the Rinoa model viewer. but oh, god, are they beautiful.

i gotta go to work now, but i'll probably post some screens lllllater when i have time. a lot of the maps are glitchy and horrifying but seeing the areas actually placed in the structure of migdar is so fucking cool. ;A;

well bye

i couldn't decide which of my two very specific icons i needed for this post [24 Nov 2009|11:48am]
[ mood | violent typing ]

Holy ccrap Square Enix Members actually sent me my loyalty package! I'd been half-heartedly looking at the dorm package board every day for the last two months but wasn't really expecting anything. Basically if you've purchased enough games to be the lowest rung on their tier of membership (this year that's just one game) you could fill out a form on the SE Members site for free promotional stuff they had left over from events, and they just hell of mail it to you. I got two Dissidia glossy postcards, a Dissidia fan, and a quality E3 brochure. I know they're just doing it to get rid of their surplus crap but as a squore I appreciate it. "mailing you free stuff with pictures of cloud on it" is the key to my heart, and a choke chain that keeps me close and trusting

semi-separate topic ~nerdrage time~

This is not a new complaint but i'm bored at work and feel like violently typing about it again anyway. really, are there ever people who are fans of movies they haven't seen, TV shows they don't watch, books they haven't read? why is it acceptable to bypass the playing of a game and skip right onto the "being a fan of it" part? it's passive vs active entertainment. firsthand experience is obviously best, but I'd be a hypocrite if I said secondhand experience wasn't also an acceptable avenue to developing an appreciation for a game. That is, of course, watching someone else play it, but you have to really watch the whole thing, not just the story-- the gameplay.

There's more to any game than youtube clips, Let's Plays, and wikipedia descriptions of their stories. You have to get a feel for how a character moves, how menus work, the feeling of trying out a new weapon. But the real key is time-- the time spent WITH that game. The build-up. the amount of time taken to get to a plot twist, or the trials leading up to a boss, learning his strategy, and then the thrill of actually beating that boss. Like a story in any media format, you can't just skip to the climaxes. It's supposed to be an accomplishment to move on to the next world or to witness a sweet-ass FMV. Success in a game is something you earn, even if you're not the one doing the controlling, if you're experiencing it in real-time in some way, you're earning what comes next. There's anticipation there, and it makes the game events that much more potent.

So, why are there so many people who participate in fandoms for games they haven't played? And why does no one call them on it, or get accused of being elitist if they do? This isn't to say you can't read about a game you've never played out of curiosity, but don't call yourself a fan of it, don't motherfucking write FANFIC for it. If you told everyone you loved the FUCK out of Star Wars and had written tons and tons of fanfiction for it, but had to keep asking people questions because you'd never actually seen it, Star Wars fans would tell you to get the fuck out. I assume. I don't know. but i'm sick of this aspect of video game fandom. It's always girls, too. fucking girls. play the fucking games or go back to watching anime where you don't actually have to do anything.

just typing here because typing is a motion for my hands that isn't drawing;;; my hand hurts;; at least i had a productive work weekend

i never took an internship these past three years, and now that it's my busiest and most stressful year one has been placed at my feet. and even though i'm way too busy for it, i'm a pushover and took it. it's work from home for the most part and would look good on a resume and should be fun, but i still sort of want to curl up and die. TAT);;

when i'm not drawing my hands off, I've been pouring obsessively over people's polygon paper crafts. seriously holy fuckin shit, this is incredible
http://paperkraft.blogspot.com/2009/03/kingdom-hearts-papercraft-cloud-strife.html

i told kasey i was going to make a life-sized cloud and now i know it's possible because some dude made a life-sized papercraft link
http://kotaku.com/5357755/papercraft-link-is-enormous-lifelike/gallery/

various entities are supposedly working on unwrapping the models in crisis core and dissidia with papercrafting in mind, which is all i've ever wanted in my life. not for papercraft specifically (though now that i know it's possible, yes, for papercraft) but just in general, i want those models so badly. i just don't know shit about digging into games, so i sit on my hands and wait for much cooler nerds than i to unlock the underwear drawers of games and create portals into their private areas.

anyway making these guys is my goal over christmas break

christ my internet sucks so much right now i can't even UL that to my own bucket. i hope this post even goes through

anyway that's [info]jisuk's photo of the pumpkin we co-carved on thursday for her party last night, which was an awesome spooktacular scarefest

except that i managed to drop my cloud arm bangle thing on the ground 5 minutes after arriving and broke off three prongs. :'( it's recovering right now. otherwise my costume was finished except for my wig and i hell of met another cloud fan there because of it. hurray! [info]kanna and i got hopped up on pill-shaped cookies made by dr. mario

also on thursday i got to visit World Leaders animation studio and interview a background artist for the Venture Brothers! it's a class assignment and i was nervous beforehand but it was very cool and everyone was quite friendly. a big thanks to Jisuk for setting that up for us. *A*

ugh i think i have more to say but my connection seriously sucks i'm gonna see if this will even post

HAPPY NOVEMBER 1ST

edit: oh yeah and i gotta share this because it left me critically impressed

some "photos" of a japanese game magazine were getting spread around that claimed Lightning was gonna be a character in Dissidia Universal Tuning (international re-release of dissidia in japan) and of course everyone was freaking. it was revealed to be a halloween prank by the coolest french person ever who created a model and altered every screenshot (the ff13 motif limit break meter is seriously a nice touch) to pull it off. the shopping isn't perfect up close but for the quality of the "photos" they released, it's fabulous. if that doesn't convince you that this person owns check out their sig in that forum. no contest

I saw Paranormal Activity with [info]jisuk on Monday (monday at 2pm, the witching hour) and loved it. It definitely could have used more, and I would have appreciated it if some trailer I saw for it didn't show the ENDING SCENE already. I was expecting the end to happen but wasn't expecting that to BE the end so it was kind of disappointing. Regardless, for $14k or whatever and now number one at the box office, go you paranormal activity. I wouldn't say it's keeping me up at night but it is making me less inclined to open my eyes while lying in bed.
The Ring and What Lies Beneath are still probably my fav horror movies because i really dig their underlying stories in addition to quality scares

it's been a super busy week and it's gonna stay busy till after the weekend, I have a sort-of paper to write so i should go
