Bantanta's Hideway

I just got Matues last night.  This summon is much better than Belias.  Heck, I will never use Belias.  I especially love being able to actually kill and to be able to use their special skill.  That movie sequence was quite spectactular.

 

The migration from the Novell Network to Microsoft has caused some serious dedication and little time for myself.  Sure is nice getting back onto the gaming! 

I just found out about the Witch Hunter for the Empire race!  Woot, that one should be a lot of fun!  I now have something in strong competition with to play with the Hammer!   My army for Warhammer 40K is the witch hunters!  That image is totally awesome and fits in exactly what I love about the 40K!  This character should be a blast.  I am really curious about character creation though?  If the dwarfs obtain longer beards as they advance, what goes on with the Witch Hunter?   Anybody know?

 

Now with the Zealot in the Choas group, what is that?  Is that some assasin like profession or what?  Anybody with info to let me know would be very appreciative!

I finally obtained my first Esper.  I got Belarius.  It was pretty easy to obtain him, even though Vaan died due to my lack of paying attention.  Oh well!  I must say that I like this summon system better than the rest.  I love how you keep the Esper throughout the entire fight for a small duration.  Much better strategy!  The actuall summon part was really nice, a lot short but still incredibly impressive how it is summoned.  Bravo!  I look foreward to obtaining the better Espers her very quickly!

FINALLY!  I got around to playing Final Fantasy XII.  Marriage and Daughter was keeping me from playing it for a week.  I am enjoying this game so much.  The game is beautiful and I love the layout of how it is playing...the skills/the map/the story line/ect ect.  I tried playing it two days ago, but I found out that I am required to play with a Dual Shock PS2 Controller......oops!  I only have the ps1 model.  So, I grabbed one and played for 2.5 hours last night.  That was by far the best intro I have ever seen.   That movie was gorgous!  I can tell the Star Wars influence on how the movie looked.  It reminded me so much of how lucas views all the cities down a street.  But I am not complaining about it!  just a little something I noticed.  The battle sequence wasn't so bad.  So far I am enjoying it.  I just got my 2nd member to my team.  Now I will see how the gambit system will work latter.  I am so excited to get this going! 

Current game status :

 

This is fantastic news!  I read the article on gamespot talking the details between greenskins and Dwarfs.  What really got my attention was on the second page at the top!  The interviewer asked if the dwarf runepriest just another healer class.  Lead Designer Steve Marvin commented with the following "By no means! In fact, I should point out that no career in Warhammer Online is "just another" anything, by intention. Every career in the game is also a solid combatant: There are no "pure support" careers in the game."  This is great!  This means everyone will be fighting in the big fight, but you have the responsibility to also heal.  Not just stay in back and heal.  Now you have a fighting chance to defend yourself.  This could lead to a lot more action in the game. Can't wait to see upcoming reports!  Let me know if you see anything new!
