 i wish that we lived in a world where we were more attuned to each other where our minds could meet our hearts where my love could meet yours  but alas  in another side of the world, you reside  where physical attunement between us is non existent where our eyes could never lock gazes where we could never meet. 

I don't usually do book reviews, but I think I've put in way too much time and effort into making bookmark notes for every chapter to a point where doing a review for this just felt... necessary? whatever. So I've officially hopped into Malazan, and Gardens of the Moon was a great entry. I'll admit, the criticisms of it being "difficult" and "inaccessible" did scare me off for a while, but after reading the book I can honestly say that these criticisms are in my opinion, overblown. It is true that there are offhand references to things that you don't know about, which in turn leads to lost understanding. It is true that the prose tends to be unclear, and you'll be left stumped trying to figure out what the sentence you just read really means. It is true that you're thrown into a clustershit without the context you need to walk smoothly through it. But even despite these confusions, I still managed to pay attention and keep track of the m...

T he hardest part about this game isn't what one would normally expect. It isn't the tough boss fights that sap up your mental energy and resources. It isn't the sudden ambushes that randomly happen when you're looking for leaves. It isn't the strenuous thinking to devise smart, precise strategies in order to effectively combat enemies and use the combat system to its fullest.  It's making decisions.  This is my review of Dragon Age Origins. I've devoted a massive number of hours to this game, and each hour has been an hour well spent.This will  be divided into a few sections: gameplay, graphics, and plot.  Gameplay Most RPGs nowadays adopt a fast-paced playstyle that puts you directly into the thick of battle, e.g Witcher 3, Skyrim, and Kingdom Come Deliverance. DAO however, does not do that. Instead, you're a strategist, not a combatant. You won't be pushing your reflexes to their limits by spamming quick movements. You'll have to think your mo...

Disclaimer: I did not watch the anime, I read the manga. All references to anime seasons refer to the plot, which I have read in a different form.   After 11 years, Attack on Titan has finally ended. I can't say that the series was consistently good because I couldn't be bothered with the plot of Seasons 1-3. I only liked it after the ending of Season 3. Without diving too much into spoilers, Season 3's ending changed everything. It changed its direction, it changed its themes, and it changed its genre. Thus, the only part I was really invested in was Season 4.  Now, the ending. Isayama completely botched it.. Important plot lines were left unanswered and the endings for certain characters felt flat. Characters were taking decisions that did not align with their individual moralities and personalities. The thematic conclusion fizzled out, leaving me even more confused than I was about the thematic direction Attack on Titan was selecting. But whatever, I've never cared a...

  Erfolg 8 stood inside the elevator, with each of its seven members. Erfolg 8 was the most accomplished police squadron ever; they were directly responsible for the downfall of notorious criminals around the world. Just recently, Erfolg 8 exposed a grand, evil scheme that involved the illegal harvesting of human organs. Not only did Erfolg 8 manage to expose the scheme, they put the mastermind behind the scheme into Death Row as well. But the task that they were assigned to on that day was on another level of difficulty. Erfolg 8 was tasked to capture the Great Pretender, a criminal mastermind. The Great Pretender had always been under the police’s radar, but the police could never catch him. Why? It’s simple ; the police could not trace the true identity of who the Great Pretender was.  The Great Pretender was a mysterious, cunning criminal. He was directly responsible for the deaths of multiple politicians around the country, but each politician was killed in a different ma...
