Insert Post Name Here, And a Quick First Game Impression.

Just felt like writing for the sake of it, just cause thats how I roll. Anyways, tomorrow my girlfriend will be leaving for the tropical paradise that is Hawai'i. And as she leaves for Hawai'i, an old friend of mine will be coming to town to stay for awhile, we shall probably have the same old visit of randomness, silliness, and just plain weirdness. We have always come up with the strangest things together, like the gopher that spontaneously bursts out of walls/floors screaming then leaving as if nothing ever happened every time an awkward silence occurs, or other nonsense like the Mr. Moo's Easy Squeeze Cheese that we had found in a store in years past. We even have a long list of jokes that we had made whilst hanging out, playing games, and other situations. And soon many more strange things will be created from the demented minds that we both have.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS TIME
Had no idea dreams were a fragile thing... Or that they were even a physical object.
So far, this game has been pretty interesting. You start off as a young boy named Seto, who had gone his whole life only knowing an old man that had raised him for what I assume to be his whole life. Just before the events of the game starts the old man passes away and Seto buries him in a shallow grave and decides to live alone, until one night where he goes into the old mans office and finds a letter from the old man himself (Kind of odd that he NEVER told Seto his name, not even in this last note) saying that he should go towards the Red Tower (Or if you're smart enough, you realize its the Tokyo Tower.) to find other survivors of an "apocalypse" that is NEVER explained to you, not even by the ghost of the little girl you find near a subway station. One thing I found rather odd are the weapons, not just what they are, but where you find them. Once I was looking through a bathroom, hoping to find something like a healing item or whatnot, what do I find? A wooden sword. In the toilet. Not in a store in the subway station, no, that would be too mainstream for them. Anyways, Where I am right now I'm looking for a silver-haired girl who SOMEHOW managed to get through a series of locked doors without the keys (Ahh video games, how you love so not to make sense), and I also noticed her lack of clothes.
Thats right, she just has 2 sheets of cloth tied to each other as a form of clothing.
She has to be one of the strangest video game characters I've ever seen, she sings, is spotted, runs away, leaving various (poor) drawings all over the place as she goes. Kinda weird there, but whatever. Another oddball I've come across is the Merchant.
Scariest thing in the game so far, he is.
This guy is the best merchant to ever exist in a game when it comes to convenience, always appearing at save points, only when you actually need him though, I've never sent him on his way without buying/selling anything so far. I may fully review this later on, but to those who want to try it, I highly recommend it.
