So I&#8217;m busy looking for the Evil King of Chairmen.  The game has a mapping feature for when you&#8217;re inside dungeons, but it wipes the map when you go out again, and the map doesn&#8217;t really show door connections very well.  So, basically, it&#8217;s useless.  Plus, you can&#8217;t see it when you&#8217;ve paused the game, so you can&#8217;t stop and think about where to go &#8212; because, of course if you stand still, evil ghosts swarm around you and attack.  I like the lack of random encounters, but these wandering ghosts are irritating in their own way.   I have to get to this one room which doesn&#8217;t seem to be connected from any of the others &#8212; I&#8217;m going to have to break out the pad of paper and draw my own map.    Another annoying thing is that if Ari dies during battle, you can&#8217;t revive him, the game just&#8230; ends.  I haven&#8217;t had anyone else die yet so I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s just Ari, but damn, that&#8217;s really stupid.  Imagine playing&#8230; any other RPG released in the last couple of years&#8230; where you couldn&#8217;t ever let your main character die.<\/p>\n<p>Work update: I may actually get to do something interesting! Excitement!  I finally got really fed up with people asking me the stupidest questions, most of which would be answered if they could be troubled to think and ALL of which could be answered if they would read the @#$$@#$ documentation we&#8217;ve written for them, so I suggested that the reason people weren&#8217;t reading this stuff is because it&#8217;s all in about 8 gazillion word documents stashed on a network drive.  So now I get to put it all up on a website! Yay! I&#8217;m hoping that if I do a good job on this they&#8217;ll actually let me do some other web-related stuff.  That would rock.  It wouldn&#8217;t make up for the crappy pay but it would at least keep me from being bitter.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both; padding-bottom: 0.25em;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okage update: Rar.
