Sleepy and Useless
Mar. 23rd, 2010 09:47 pm*yawn* I got up early to play Cave Story and spent close to 5 hours doing so. I managed to get past where I was stuck at, guess I missed talking to someone or it didn't register that I did. I'm now at Final Cave (Hidden), so I successfully activated the secret ending, I just have to get through the level, fight the 3 bosses, and then whatever awaits me in the secret level. XD
Also, Combee on Pokemon Ranch is just too adorable. <3 <3 <3
Wondering if there'll be a pre-evolution with just one segment, since it said that it was 3 stuck together.
Forgot to say yesterday that we went to McDonald's and then fed ducks at the park afterwards.
Today, we went for a walk and then to Subway, it was pretty yummy. ^_^
Gatlinburg ad, plz to be stop hiding what I've typed. >_>
I totally got over 41,100 on Robot Unicorn Attack, yay!
I am an idiot, I made a profile thing for that stupid AU Hitsugaya, I have a username and everything and I'm making an icon. I don't need another character that's just going to sit around and rot. >_> Especially when I have Crazy!Momo and My-HiME!Orihime to mess with and my Portal thingy to work on.
Last night, I messed around in Portal some more with the third person mode. I was curious and wanted to see the sizes of the Companion Cube, Curiosity Core, and turret robots. I was pretty shocked, to say the least. XD They need something that says that "objects are bigger than they appear". XD I knew the Cube was fairly big, it appears to be about 2-2.5 feet tall or so. The Curiosity Core and turret robot sizes threw me for a loop. XD I thought you could pick up the Cores in your arms and hold them, but it seems to be just as big, maybe bigger than the Cube! The colored eyeball part of the Core seems to be about the size of Chell's face or so, it was hard to tell because you're always behind Chell's back. XD I knew the turret robots were medium-sized, but they look like they come up to Chell's shoulder! If Chell is around average height, that's about 4 feet tall! There's a silly official picture that seems to match up close to that size, as well. I thought maybe they were knee-height or so... XD
I am inadvertently learning all sorts of weird things about Portal in order to properly do my stupid fanfic/adaptation idea. XD
I've been fairly useless for my fanfic today, I've been doing everything but working on it. XD I'll try to read through some of the manga. I was poking through Yylfordt's chapters, I haven't seen him much in action yet, but his first big sentence reads more like Szayel. XD I think they're more alike than Szayel thinks. XD Which is good, since that means he might be smart enough to survive the portal tests, whoo!
Because of the nature of the game, later chapters are going to be longer than the earlier, simpler ones. I'm considering on some of the harder early tests having Yylfordt make mistakes, especially on some that requires him to jump onto portals and him go flying feet first. XD Also thinking about having him make mistakes on one of the harder ones, it's a nasty piece of work, and makes me feel a little wonky because you're bouncing up and down at high speeds. On my first couple of run-throughs, it took me forever because I kept making mistakes, especially on my initial jump. On my last playthrough I only missed like one (if any) dive jump and I usually botch nearly all of them. XD
There's one trick you have to do in the final test chamber that isn't anywhere else in the game, I'm trying to think of a way that he'd figure it out, I guess probably just by experimenting with the portals early on. I might look up a walkthrough and see if there is another solution or something. Need to also look up a walkthrough on part of the Companion Cube chamber, there's one bit I've always been iffy about, and the way I do it puts Yylfordt in crazy danger. XD
Thought to ponder over - Do the turret bullets pass all the way through a person when shot? There are always bullet holes behind you, there's also blood spatter. They shoot quite fast. Having Yylfordt be full of holes instead of having bullets stuck in him makes things easier for when he rapid-heals.
I'm having second thoughts over the final battle, it might just be too horrible. It involves Yylfordt stuffing 4 of Szayel's round Fraccion in an incinerator, they block it up, and the thing explodes, sending Yylfordt flying. I just can't think of another way to convey the same sort of thing as the final battle in Portal but transferred to Bleach. Is my idea too abominable? They do get eaten alive, so I suppose getting blown up would be a less painful and suffering death?
Debating on Nelliel's final bit, since the Ratman clues disappear part of the way through the last bit, it's unknown if he died or what. Thinking about maybe having Nelliel run out of ink at a point, but is looking ahead, then isn't seen for the rest of the time, giving her a little more closure.
I need to name this thing so I can give it it's own tag. XD
Is anyone getting sick of my constant rambles on it?
The more I think about Portal, the more it is a series of escalating horrors for the test subject.
