Well i had a nice morning today. It was bit chilly and i am really happy that i grabbed some extra blankets at night. That stomach virus that hit me the other day is spreading around to the rest of my family. So that sort of sucks for them. Its not as bad but still. The day hasent really started off but then again i like how its going. I'm talking with my mate and she tells me that its her first time being a DM in a D&D game today. I'm a little jealous about this. I have been wanting to get into a game for a while now. But its really hard to find people who are into it in my area. Yeah i could go online and find people but its not the same as being there with actual people and acting out the roles and everything like that.
I'm pretty vanilla when it comes to D&D so im not super hardcore about it. But i really love the story aspect about it. Just acting things out, always checking yourself for different scenarios. I have done some pretty layed back games where stats and rules are bent a little just to keep things more light hearted and fun. But yeah, i really wish i could be there to see her DM and see what she comes up with. Ugh my head is filling up with ideas for characters and diffrent ways of doing it and GAH! i so want to play D&D right now. To be a Dragon Born or maybe a elf or something. Its been for ever since i have played it. That's it im heading out to get some food and maybe play a game online or something.
Oh oh oh..yeah im really getting ticked off at some of the game companies here. I recently found out that Microsoft is getting a patent put out that gives them the ability to monitor people via the Kennects cameras. All in an effort to see who is playing their games and what not. This is insane, they are getting to the point where they want everyone who is interested in the game to buy every little bit of it. They want to do away with the days of loaning out your personal copy of a game to a friend in the hopes of getting them interested in this awesome game. And i know this has to do with that stupid Piracy excuse they have. Yeah i get that its a problem but its not as bad as they make it out to be. They are blaming them for the loss in money. And when they say they are loosing money they mean its something like they are only making $4 profit instead of $5. They are still making profit just a little less. Aside from that, the games downloaded arent loss of sales. Those are the sales that they never had! I could have downloaded Skyrim but i like the franchise so much that i went out and bought it. The people who are downloading the games are people who would have never bought the game in the first place. So yeah..there you go mini rant.
