  1. I watched Toonami in the states after school. Didn't know much about Manga and anime. Was stunned that DBZ and all that action was what followed the much more chill pace of Dragonball, which itself was hard to catch on network tv. Vaguely remember having to wake up at like, 7 am to see it on a Saturday way back.

    Always remembered the art style of Toriyama's from Chrono Trigger. It was only later on I gained an appreciation for a lot of the things his art was involved with. Dragon Quest in particular.

    May he rest.

  2. Went in search of a treasure map in Barrow Lagoon in the frozen northwest. Investigated a nearby shack nearby and found a newspaper clipping detailing a terrible accident that cut an ice skater's career short. Close by was a dug up burial mound with a one legged corpse. Their epitaph was defaced with the phrase "No Ice In Hell."

     

    I love finding this stuff.

  3. Bear with me. This gets a little...out there.

    I approached a shack and met one Francis Sinclair. Fast talking guy with red hair and a distinctive birthmark on his right eye. He used a lot of interesting slang Arthur had no idea about. The gist is he was lost and needed to find some interesting rock carvings. For a puzzle or some such. Francis was an interesting duck so I figured I'd give it a go during my travels. I was avoiding the main storyline like the plague regardless.

    After a little doing I find'em all and send the locations via the post office. A little while later Francis sends a correspondence telling Arthur he's pieced something together and wanted him to hurry as he was traveling and didn't want to miss him. Arthur arrives and...

    Spoiler

    Enters the empty shack not finding Francis. There are some VERY interesting notes/sketches on the back of the cabin and a woman with an infant came inside that Arthur assumes is Mrs. Sinclaire. As it turns out her husband is dead. And named Tom. Her SON on the other hand is named Francis. And he has the same hair color and birthmark the man Arthur met has. If anyone is doing this be sure to grab the Old Brass Compass on the table inside. You can turn this into a talisman that slows down weapon degradation by 20%. Effective on all weapons to boot.

    Spoiler

    On FURTHER investigation after re-entering the cabin, Francis appears to be some kind of time traveler. The carvings in particular showed visions of the future, civilization, science etc. Also...Francis is likely a descendant of Kraff. The god the Epsilon Program of GTA V worships.

    Kifflom!

  4. So...I see this guy on the side of a dirt road. He's having some trouble with his horse. Trying to replace it's horseshoes or something? I ask if he needs help, he answers in the affirmative and gets the everloving life kicked out of him by his own ride seconds later.

    Did the sensible thing and looted his body, pretending the whole thing never happened.

  5. I'm pretty sure Telltale has some kind of hold on my soul at this point. Finished my first playthrough of episode One and I'm quite intrigued. The engine seems more polished with more action and movement on your part. Not to mention you can dash (I call it a dash, but it's essentially a sped up walk), which speeds things up a bit.

    As for the story itself, magnificent stuff. Though I never read the Fables comics (a damn crime upon reflection), I was pulled in and already can't wait for episode 2. Great voice acting and some interesting choices. I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoyed Season 1 of TWD.
