Forlorn Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Mom bought me Tales of Vesperi: Definitive Edition on Switch which I'm thoroughly enjoying. I love everything about it so far. ^^ Definitely one of the best games I've played to date. Oh, and I had to get it from the Nintendo eShop which was, unfortunately, after it went on sale for $9 and the sale ended, so she had to pay $50. There was a lot of begging involved, but I also kind of kept reminding her because she has a bad memory like me. ^^; AWESOME GAME!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really depressing to miss out on sale offer like that. What's even worse is paying $50 for something then finding out a few days later that it's on special offer for $9. Sounds like your really enjoying the game, so play it, have fun and forget the $$$ it cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forlorn Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Mom got me a $20 gift card for Switch and I bought Blades of Time with the funds from it. It's a REALLY fun game. Took a quick second to get used to it though since that's just how I am with games, but omg it's one of the most fun games I've played!!! Tales of Vesperia is definitely one of my top favorite RPGs that she let me get, too. Though I've obviously had Tales of Vesperia for a while now. lol Blades of Time is pretty much hack and slash, but the protagonist, Ayumi, can also use guns. She's such a WARRIOR!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forlorn Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Mom and I were going to go run errands Wednesday afternoon, but her husband came home in the time she was getting ready, so she went with him. Mom wanted to compensate for this sudden switch with letting me get something in the Nintendo eShop. When they got back from running errands, mom let me buy Immortals Fenyx Rising and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown which were both on sale for a combined $30 (give or take a dollar or 2), so I was really going to dive right in to Immortals Fenyx Rising tonight and see how it is. ^^ ^^ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forlorn Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Mom let me buy another game since Immortals Fenyx Rising on Switch requires an internet connection and I didn't know that. Usually I look up if a game can only be played online like that on Switch or not before purchasing it, so that was a regrettable mistake. x.x The game mom let me buy was Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning which was on sale from the eShop for $15 and the DLC was only $5 or $6, so it was affordable. ^^ ^^ I was really looking forward to playing Fenyx, too. I'm still mad at myself for not doing my homework on the Switch release of that game before buying it from the eShop. x.x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice of your mum to let you buy a replacement game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efaardvark Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 (edited) A workmate recently went to Hawaii and brought me back some coffee in bean form. I have a cheap electric juicer that can function as a coffee grinder but it doesn’t produce consistent ground sizing. Some of the coffee comes out as flour while some of the chunks are like quarter-bean size. It also takes a while, which isn’t good for the coffee, and you have to clean it especially well afterwards or the juice starts tasting like coffee. So to do things right I had to go and get a new coffee grinder. Hand-crank so it takes a little work but it is ceramic and glass and easy to adjust for consistent ground size. The coffee is good too.

Not to mention the instant regret once you realize that about what you bought. x.x It was pretty nice of her though. ^^ ^^ She knows how important games are to me in order for me to escape reality, so she understands why I want to play them so badly. ^^ ^^ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forlorn Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 While mom and I were running errands today (Thursday until around the time it started to get dark when it was late) she let me get a $35 Nintendo eShop Gift Card which I was positive of which games I would get, but when we got home and after I redeemed the gift card because mom wanted to let me get a couple more games so I looked through the games that were on sale in the Nintendo eShop and I'd originally planned on getting CRYSTAR and Dragon Star Varnir which would've totaled out to somewhere around $30 or so, but when we got home at night on Thursday and I went to my Wish List in my Nintendo account I saw that Dragon Star Varnir was no longer on sale like it was yesterday. x.x HOWEVER!!! I ended up finding another game with playable heroines that was only $13 when CRYSTAR was around $17 and features a heroine trying to bring her sister back from the afterlife after she accidentally got her sister killed (which is similar to how I feel about Jackie... even if it isn't what happened, it's how I've felt for a long time now), so I'll be trying out CRYSTAR after checking my DA account for messages and after Apex Heroines - Silver Legend bundle which included the DLC Silver Legend which is a silver outfit for the protagonist(s) of the game (I also intend to get the Dark Legend DLC at some point for Apex Heroines because it provides a black outfit that looks pretty dark, but I can't afford it with my current remaining credits and btw Apex Legends is the 2nd game I found on sale after noticing Dragon Star Varnir wasn't on sale anymore) finishes downloading. Frankly I think the cost of Dragon Star Varnir being returned to its default price of $30 worked out for the better since I've always loved heroines of games, movies, and anything else that tells a good story and has a woman protagonist (or several), so I really do think it worked out for the better~~~ ^^ ^^ ^^ The Dark Legend outfit DLC for Apex Heroines might've been too dark though for the game, but the Silver Legend outfit DLC does at least provide a DLC outfit that won't be based on grieving. ^^ ^^ ^^ So it's probably for the better that I bought that bundle when buying Apex Heroines. ^^ ^^ ^^ I've only got $2 of credit left in my Nintendo account, so I'm glad mom let me get a $35 gift card instead of a $20 gift card. ^^ ^^ ^^ I know these 2 games will be really fun because I love playing as a heroine and taking down enemies, no matter what kind of enemies they may be. ^^ ^^ ^^ So, it's definitely lifted my mood for tonight, that's for sure~~~ ^^ ^^ ^^ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forlorn Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 I got some Yu-Gi-Oh! cards from @Sakura that arrived in the mail Wednesday~~ ^^ ^^ ^^ The cards that she sent me were: The 3 Egyptian God Cards in Effect Monster form that I think are allowed to be used in actual Duels, Dark Magician (the one with a purple robe that has red trimming), and Doma the Angel of Silence. Back when my big sister was still alive and she was living with us (us being mom, the creep that she married, and me, which was a REALLY awesome time that I'm glad I remember~) she told me at one point that she liked dark fairies, so I gave her the only dark fairy that I had which was the Yu-Gi-Oh! card Doma the Angel of Silence to give her something from me that would remind her of me and since it was a Dark attribute Fairy card and the only thing I had that was a dark fairy of any kind. I don't know if she kept it where she knew it was all the time or she lost it, but I hope she put it somewhere safe after I gave her that card. Even if she didn't, it'd be pretty easy to lose a Yu-Gi-Oh! card, but giving her that card was also a way for me to do something nice for her in the only way I could. ^^ ^^ ^^ Seeing that card with the other cards that @Sakura sent me in the mail made me smile and reminded me of that day I wanted to do something nice tor big sis' in the only way I really could when it came to giving her something. ^^ ^^ ^^ I'm glad she's safe now though and nobody can hurt her anymore. Every day I miss her all over again, so now I can look at the Doma the Angel of Silence card and think of my big sister. < 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had hoped it would make you happy and not sad so I was kinda iffy on if I should include it or not, but I'm glad you liked it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
