Hell on Wheels, hell on RP.



Hell on Wheels: Thumbs down. I didn't even get through the first ep. In the first 15 minutes or so I liked the backgrounds and music enough to keep going with it, then I lost interest in even that. By the halfway point I was frowning, and by 45 minutes in I actively disliked it. I didn't finish even that one ep. Too violent for me, too bloody, I had zero interest in the characters -- worse than that, I disliked all of them.

My RP for the evening included people like this:

Daeleron cocks that head of his so rough, it slaps the male's facial features, as eyes, sharp in wit; study Thistle.

I'm still boggling. Everything he said sounded like it had been run through an online translator a few times. There was good RP too, though! And there was in between RP. I started looking early and didn't XP at all today (so lazy!) so I got quite a few scenes. Yay!

For the first time in what feels like forever, I didn't have a boneless skinless chicken breast for dinner. I ran out of them, and I'm so very sick of them I can't bring myself to buy more. I have to look into pork or turkey or something else to have now and then. (Or more ways to make the chicken!)

All in all, a darned good night! Hope everyone else has a good one, too! :)

The worst part is it feels like you're going a million miles per hour on smaller characters. After years of playing Tauren/Galka going to another race it feels like I've got permanent movement speed+ or something. But it's just their tiny legs messing with my head.

I get the reverse - I try to play Tauren and they feel like they're lumbering along through molasses. XD

I like it, makes me feel like I'm not really in a rush to get anywhere but I still get there are the same time as everyone else.

A couple old FFXI friends and I call it the Galka Effect. You just feel SO SLOW because their legs move slow, but the actual speed is the same.

Ya, talking to people who play Taru and such it's funny when I run besides them and it looks like I'm just taking a relaxing stroll and the Taru is running a 100m race to try and keep up!
