Okami

[baratron]

Haven't been around much online because I'm playing vast quantities of Ōkami. It will probably surprise you not at all that it's pretty much my perfect game. You are a (female) wolf who is the reincarnation of the sun goddess, and you restore trees, feed animals, fight monsters, and do calligraphy with your tail. And the whole thing is based heavily on Japanese mythology. Honestly, the only way it could be more of an h-l game would be if there was a rhythm action component where she played a musical instrument with her tail.

Also, Alexa is staying, and we're being vaguely social together in a low-energy sort of way. Pretty much everyone I know is severely short of energy at the moment.

Somehow, February ended while I wasn't looking, meaning it's time for me to do all my invoices. In fact, today being 5th March, they're already overdue. Argh.

I'm loving Okami, too, although odd bits irritate me (I suck at the controller, which makes some of the arcade-like bits frustrating). I don't feel I've got very far yet, though!

Okami love! So glad it finally got to you.

Yes, I'd like some spoons, and new spines too! Invoices - bleh!

*Recently received and started playing Okami as well*

Clearing the corrupted areas is awe-ingly beautiful in that game. I'm having one of those "why didn't I buy this sooner?!" moments with it because I'd already fallen in love by the end of the opening sequence. I may be a bit biased, though... Japanese mythology + a main character that's a wolf. Hard not to love it =O
