Hmm

It happens after Mort, but oddly enough is rather stand alone. I'd say you can read it right away, that's what I did the first time

OH LORD, WHAT CAN THE HARVEST HOPE FOR IF NOT FOR THE CARE OF THE REAPER MAN?

Reaper Man, the 11th Discworld book, finished. By far my absolute favorite book out of the batch so far, blows the rest out of the water. An entry in both the Death and Wizards series, it tells the story of Life and Death. It all started as Death is forced to retire from his job, which causes an imbalance between the Life and Death force in Discworld. This imbalance manifested itself as new Deaths spring up all over Discworld, latching onto every being's perception of Death. On the flip side, a predator is using the excess Life force to manifest itself... and it's targeting Ankh-Morpork

Best Parts:
- I love that they made Windle Poons half the protagonist here. They made me, someone who thinks zombies are overdone to death, love the old codger. From the decrepit old man that he was in Moving Pictures to the undead hero that forced his
- Aww yeah Death in a starring role once again! A continuation of Death trying to do human things, and I personally felt it was portrayed better here than in Mort. And he's just so damn happy to have Time! And then slowly losing himself to despair...
- The Wizard are in top form now! The Bursar finally started losing his grip on reality, and the Dean takes over the role of straight man for now... until maschismo takes over. Sad that Windle Poons is taken out of the equation, but oh well
- The Auditors of Reality. By far my favorite Discworld villains get an early start here. But they'll be back, oh yes, and they keep getting worse... just like how a good villain should. I've always had a thing for villains whose motivation is to rearrange things as they should be, reinforcing some insane laws they cooked up
- The Mall Lifeform was just sheer genius. From snow globe (egg) to Trolleys (workers) to the mall itself (queen), it keeps astounding me every time I read about it
- The Wizards' reaction to undead Windle Poons was a non-stop laugh a minute ride. From the Bursar biting trough his wooden spoon to their various attempts to exorcise him, these idiots never have a dull moment
- Windle Poons slowly piecing together what's wrong with the snow globes and trolleys
- Reg Shoe's club. Oh man, those guys. Like the ghoul that can't cook to the banshee that is too shy to the boogie man to the middle class vampire and his non-vampire wife to the wereman, they're all fun
- Death's- err, Bill Door's Dream and his reaction
- Renata Flitworth was a joy to read as well. Slapping Bill Door and kicking him out for his callous disregard for human life to saving Death from new death to her actually having treasure but still pines for her dead man.
- The new Deaths. The death of mayflies (a trout), the death of the counting pines (a sound), and everybody's favorite, the Death of Rats!
- The climaxes, from Death VS New Death (a CROWN?) to the Wizards + the Fresh Start Club against the Alien Mall (Yo! Ook! Yo!) to Death courting Renata
- Quite possibly my absolute favorite line in a book, period. The one at the beginning.
- One-Man-Bucket's name origin. XD not Two-Dogs-Fighting

How much did I love this book? I heard it. Twice. I'm short succession. Once read by Tony Robinson, another by Nigel Plainer. This was my first Discworld book, and to this day it still rates highly to me. Will it stay on top though? I can think of one entry that could dethrone it... but that's not for awhile. In any case, my favorite character in a starring role, the first appearance of my favorite villains, hilarious moments all over, and even touching moments here and there, makes this one of my all time favorite books

I HATE THIS FIGHT SO ****ING MUCH

It wouldn't be so bad if they just buffed themselves and used Ram and Ultimate Ram

BUT THEY JUST

WON'T

STOP

SCREAMING

Went with the nuke them all at the same time route, so my problem was the status effects shutting down my party not the damage control

Whatever, battle is done and may we never see the likes of them ever again-

...

They're an Apocalypse fight in the future aren't they

Demon Wall Apocalypse mastered. No thanks to a certain deserter >_>

Faris 92: Mug Bloodlust R1, Affliction Break R1, Beryl Serpent BSB, 1 SB Bar at start RM

Celes w/BSB, Minwu w/BSB

So yeah the Onion Knight guy misclicked and used his SSB instead of his BSB and bailed right after

Goddammit

But anyway I carried on since I had Slowga prof on the first hit, and sure enough, thanks to Affliction Break the ****er never managed to shut down our entire party all at once, and once I managed to have OK Burst it was all over for the Wall

I'd say I was kind of cutting it close though, but all's well that ends well

Faust- err, Eric, the 9th Discworld book, finished. The next entry in the Rincewind series, it details what happened after Rincewind saved the world (in a strange circumstance that involved Rincewind, a magic carpet, and half a brick stuffed into a sock. See: Sourcery). His next adventure is a sendup of that old Faust tale, sending him to the heart of the Klatchian jungle (next to a civilization that, regrettably, isn't filled with amazon women. That's the next jungle over), to the Tsoratean/Ephebean war (involving wooden horses and a woman), to the beginning of creation (and meeting who, exactly, was responsible for the Discworld), culminating in a trip through Hell itself. Not the Dungeon Dimensions Rincewind was in before, but actual Hell. All along guiding a boy called Eric through his wishes

Best Parts
- Rincewind is in top form as always. Scream all you like man, just let it all out
- Eric being revealed to not be so much as an elderly demonoligist so much as a boy dabbling in the arts
- The demons. The first and last time they're the center of attention, in particular King Astfgl and Duke Vassenego. Shame, they had untapped potential, compared to the Things from the Dungeon Dimensions
- Poor old Quetzalovercoatl. I mean, he's a demon, so so getting his corporeal body trodden on by the luggage only set him back a few centuries, but still... XD his statue accurate in every detail except his size
- The Luggage is still a hilarious unstoppable engine of destruction. From terrorizing jungle creatures, Tsortean soldiers, and the demons of hell, I never get tired of that thing
- The Tsort arc is quite good actually. Lavaeolous, Rincewind opening a door only to let the Ephesians army in, the current state of the most beautiful woman in the world... classic
- The end of the universe. Only Death, lonely, poor old Death, remains. And then matter began again. And Death patiently waited until he is needed again. Good on him, hate to think he'd just be hanging around in limbo forever until Azrael fuses him again
- The current state of Hell's policy on terminal boredom horrified even RINCEWIND! And he's the guy that thinks boredom is the best state of mind!
- Duke Vassenego being revealed as the one behind everything, and smoothly trapped King Astfghl in his own trap: bureaucracy

It might have to do to with the length, it might have to do with Eric's personality, it might be not liking anybody in the cast other than my main man Rincewind... but I personally thought this was the weakest Discworld book so far.

Phew, FF VII Remake 100% complete

Those Chaos domains were really brutal, and that's on Normal. I hate fighting two Shadows at the same time, take too long and those bastards pull off their Ultimates

Now to farm Titan Squad cards and... whatever else I can get. Maybe Dark Cloud and Jessie

Another FF VII 4* Remake Summon, another blank draw

Legend and Surpreme cards in any case

I did get 4* Titan out of it though (along with Barret but **** the Fire Card it sucks), and this thing is awesome!

Damn shame that I can't use it fully in MP. Maybe as a Samurai? No Enhance Earth though

I set the difficulty to Normal :P

Also there's a button to the top right of the battle screen that speeds up everything

Other than that though, don't have any tips. I use a Dancer and break them fast before they get too annoying
