DmC Video Game Review

Hello my Kittens~
it's been faar too long since my last blog
sorry about that...
Second Semester started and I'm already suffocated with work...
Anyways I have a few post ready to go to make it up 
for all the laziness~

Today's post as you can tell from the title is the 
New DmC game

DmC if you are not familiar with the series stands for
Devil May Cry
I've been a Devil May Cry girl since I got my PS2
Which was a good more than a decade ago~
God I feel so old...
So like all DmC fans I was outraged by the complete 180 in Dante's look
So angry in fact that I decided I'd quit DmC
But after hearing from so many that the game was amazing
I decided to get it and try it out
Let's just say I was not disappointed

~~~

 Let's Start with the Review:

The game is not for kids I tell you!
I read in many other blogs that they don't like the new Dante personality because of the constant
swearing...
I'm sorry but this is where we disagree XD
I'm born with a mouth of a sailor
I curse like there is no tomorrow when playing
and sometimes in real life too
so if anything the cursing is quite enjoyable for me~~
cause we almost say the same curses most of the time =^v^=
Dante's new redone personality makes it look a bit more
like him when he was younger
I know this is not a prequel but it feels like that to me 
so Dante's new redox get a 5/5 for the haircut alone~
and let's note talk about those pretty eyes <3
I'm captivated~~
*Considering I'm a girl that makes me subjective to physical appearances of cute male character~*

~~
Let's move to the Gameplay
If anything the gameplay alone is what made the game awesome
the lines and everything else was meh,
but the gameplay is freaking amazing
so fast paced 
and the new controls of being able to easily juggle all your weapons in a single touch of a button is pretty cool
The Gameplay alone made me replay the game almost as soon as I finished it!!
Only problem is there is no lock button...
it's all fine and whatever when you're attacking ground-based enemies
but when you're trying to shot those annoying aerial-type demons it almost makes you wanna kill yourself...
the whole game is quite easy even on Nephilim(Difficult) level
I usually play Medium difficulty first to get a feel of the game then after finishing it
I move up the difficulties, and it's pretty easy to beat
that kinda took away from the game
since I know regular difficulties in other DmCs kind already let you replay 3-4 times to beat a boss
but in this one you beat the boss and in perfect time score too...
Gameplay gets a 4.75/5 for the minor issues I noticed.

~~~~
Storyline?
The storyline was ok I guess since it's hard to match up to the older DmCs
but I enjoyed it,
I have this thing where I don't compare games
and guess what it works great
cause if expect games to be all in the same levels you're going to be gravely disappointed.
I enjoyed the story to say the least
Didn't mind Dante's new cute puppy like personality 
Virgil is what made me raise an eyebrow about the whole new shake up
older DmC fans won't trust him like me
not gonna post much spoilers but I really liked the new brotherly relationship the shared 
it was adorable.
I wanted to like Mundus but Goooood he's like a one broken record
his personality bored me...
And no I'm not gonna say nice things about Kat she annoyed me to say the least
at some points I wanted to slap her in the face and yell at her to grow a pair...
the story get a 3.75/5 cause it was enjoyable
~~~~

So the whole game gets a good 4/5 
which is a good score compared to the other blogs I've seen XD
but seriously I didn't regret getting the game to say the least

Oh yeah totally forgot to talk about the soundtrack!!!
OMG it was EPIC!!!
I loooooved the soundtracks, I'm getting both albums by CombiChrist and Noisia cause 
they were freaking amazing!!
and that gives the game score a new 4.5/5 cause of the awesome music alone~ <3

~~~
Anyways that's the end of this post
whether you agree or disagree with me
just know to each his own and whatever XD

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next post~
Not paid to by anyone~
Love and Kisses to all~~ <3

I live in Narnia or Middle Earth

Hello my Kittens
Today I have a rant post ^w^
I'm going to rant about the freaking stupid shipping
For some reason it is physically hard 
for some people to ship to Kuwait
it's not like I live in Narnia or Middle Earth!!!
My country ships oil to many countries worldwide daily!!
and I get the we don't ship to your location sh*t!!
I know there are other few methods
but I don't want them
I don't feel safe with them
why can't I get stuff shipped directly to my address?
and without Insaaaanse rates...
when the shipping and handling rates are the same price
as what you are ordering if not more
doesn't it make you weep???
I swear to God people I'm not in an isolated island in the Atlantic
nor do I live in the ring of fire to suffer from this >x<
I demand shipping to my location!!!
I also demand cheaper shipping rates to my address 
no need to pay 50+ $ for delivery that takes place between 8-16 days
So freaking expensive!!!
and with that I leave you with this thought
Why must we suffer back-breaking shipping rates??

tataa for now~~

Thanx for reading this rant~~
Love and kisses to all~~ <3

Assassin's Creed Renaissance Book Review


Hello my Kittens~~
Happy 2013~~
it's been a week since 2013 kicked in and I thought that I should
Do a book review~~
This is so overdue DX
but it won't be long cause I don't want to post spoilers or anything
~~~

So the review is going to be about:

This book is amazing, 
whether you are a fan of the Assassin's Creed Series or just looking for a good book to read
Oliver Bowden stayed quite authentic to the series
take it from me I played the full game over 4 times XD
but it also went deeper into the Character of Ezio Auditore
explaining many things that were a but amiss in the game
I liked the detailed description
the thrill in the book, the events the other characters
the interaction was phenomenal in the book
I'm glad I got the second book already and I'm so going to order the rest of the series soon enough
Also one the nice kinks is like the game you get to learn a lot of Italian ~~
There is two whole glossary in the back of the book 
one with the list of characters of importance 
and the other is the very "creative" phrases and words 
I like it cause it have a lot of curse words XD

Considering I'm a baits opinion on this I give the book a 5/5
1. for keeping me interested 
2. for staying true of the characters 
3. beautiful illustration of the buildings and places
4. the detailed glossary 
5. for the action packed book <3

Ok so I hope you enjoyed this review~~

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next post~
Love and Kisses to all <3

Happy New Year

Hello My kittens~~
This will be the last post of 2012 for me ~~
I have to say that 2012 has been such a good year
it was a bit stressful due to my struggling in my studies to finally be able to major
But all and all I couldn't have asked for a better year
~~
I say to 2012 thank you so much for being awesome
and I hope and wish that 2013 is going to be better than 2012
I don't know what to post, 
I did do most of my goals for last year, and I'm quite proud
minus the weight loss one
Don't get me wrong I did lose a lot of weight the past few months but it's
cause I gained a bit before XD
Yeah it's not like I'm going over the limit or anything
it's just I'd like to be more fit but I'm not going to kill myself over it
Especially since I don't have a lot of time juggling collage's classes 
Reading, Drawing and studying and all that
hopefully I will stick to that next year though~
But what I enjoyed the most this year
is actually having fun
I really did enjoy myself in 2012 and I hope and pray to continue to do the same next year
I don't know if I have resolutions for next year
 All I want is to have fun
live healthy 
Improve myself and acend to higher levels in my life
and be around my loved ones
cause I know they're the ones that really help in making 2012 the awesome thing it is
so I'm not going to make it longer
thank you guys for for being awesome
have a Wonderful and amazing new year
I wish you all the very best 
But most importantly be safe and have enjoy yourself
for fussing over silly things won't get you anywhere~~
Love and Kisses to all of you
See you in 2013 <3
and to my fellow assassins
Peace be with you my friends <3~

Korean Products review~

Hello my kittens~~
Yes this is finally here~~
I'm going to review all the Korean products I got from
Pretty and Cute website~
So let's get it on~

First I'm going to review the
 Lioele A.C Control Mousse Cleanser~~
So let's talk Mousse Cleanser~
This is sooo awesome!!!
Not because it actually does help greatly with acne 
which it does, since I got it on the week of the month that I break out the most
this lovely thing worked with the help of the TTO body shop products in killing and breakouts~
It's very foamy once you pump it out of the bottle, when you put it on your face it feels soft
and it doesn't feel too harsh, once you wash it your skin will actually feel smooth and velvety 
I was so surprised since I did have bad experience with regular cleanser
this is just beautiful
I use it once a day before I sleep so I won't over-kill my skin
I will re-purchase it again once I run out of it cause it's awesome~~
it get a 10/10 <3

Next is the 
 Etude House: Skin [Mal:Gem] Deep Moist

So I heard and read a lot about this toner being not so good for oil skin
it will make it appear oilier than usual and so on
but I did need a moisturising Toner to go with my cleanser 
cause I get over paranoid and don't want my skin to dry out even though I have oily skin
*it's just that I had a super bad experience with other cleansers*
So I apply this in my morning and night routine
and my face feels nicely refreshed lightly moisturised, and not overdone
and no it doesn't make my face oilier or something 
it actually gives a matte finish
which I'm surprised of
it's very thick, a lot thicker compared to regular toners 
which makes it a perfect winter toner cause you need the extra hydration
though I don't know how it would do in summer
I really really love this product and will probably re-purchase it
once I run out of it for the winter only
cause I don't need too much hydration in summer
8.5/10

Last but not anywhere near least is the 
Tonymoly: Mini Peach Lip Balm 

Best thing in the world!!!
I'm not joking people!!!
I got seriously dry lips thanx to Decutan and anything I use
only works momentarily and not on the long term
but after a few weeks of using this religiously mainly cause it's super cute
and it smells like OMG mouth watering peaches <3
my lips are now back to normal, and now I only use it max 3 times a day
which is a huge improvement when I first got, where I had to use ever 2-3 hours
I just think this a great product I love it
the only problem is it's that it's in a pot
so it's the packaging but the other issue is
I LOVE the packaging
so you can see my issue here XD
Ok the pot is a down side cause it's hard getting the waxy textured balm out
and it catches my cat hair and so on
but the packaging is super cute
so I'll live through it
and I will definitely re-purchase this even before my current one gets depleted cause I love it so much
and can't live without it <3
it get a 9.5/10
 for the packaging confusion XD

~~~~~
So there I reviewed three products for you that I got from PrettyandCute.com
which if you didn't check I recommend checking and giving them a go
cause they have awesome customer service and will take good care of you <3
So that's it for this post I hope you enjoyed it and found it useful~
~~~

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next post~~
P.S. Everything I said was my honest opinion I wasn't paid and stuff
Love and Kisses to all~~ <3

Chaos Rings for Android Review


Hello my kittens~~
I have a final tomorrow but here I am doing a post
since I seriously can't post the products review yet, since it's super packed and long
while these I already had my notes for the game while I was playing
so I just put them all in a form~

So the review today is about as the title says Chaos rings~


Chaos rings is a really really good game
it's a turn base JRPG 
which makes it my type of games
When I noticed that it was on the Android market 
and by Square-Enix, which is one of my favourite companies ever
I knew I had to buy it
~~~
So let's talk technical:
The game runs beautifully on my Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100
Android version 4.1.1 
it doesn't lag
and the graphics are really beautiful for a phone game
so porting wise I think Square-Enix spared no resources
as the game is perfectly fitted on my android
~~
Gameplay wise I didn't have the time to finish the game yet
but I love the characters
the voices are in Japanese but it comes with English translation
so no worries
Also the gameplay system is super nice
it's very fluid
might be a bit complicated for those who are not used to Square-Enix or RPGs
but if you are, it'll be smooth sailing from there
the Storyline is quite compelling
I really enjoy games with good storyline above anything.
~~~
Now that we went over the good stuff
Let me talk about the thing that annoyed me the most in the game
*dun dun... duuuun*
The freaking controls!!!!
The movement controls suck!!
I would get stuck on air!!!
It's very hard to move around, 
maybe for a a person who is used to touchscreen phone games
*I'm used to them to an extent*
but these controls are horrible...
Excuse me but I'm used to great controls from SE and this is way sub-standard 
and considering you're paying for the game which isn't a very cheap price
I think around 9 US dollars
it's a phone game people...
Though I don't think it's a waste of money
since the game is great and all...
~~~~~

So all and all I will give this game a 4/5
it could've gotten higher if not for the controls
since it deserves it
So I recommend checking it out if you really like RPGs
and if you like SE
or if you have extra money in you pocket and would like to try a new game
that is awesome at everything but the controls...
~~~~

I hope you found this post useful~~

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next one~
Love and kisses to all~~

Art is Life

Hello my kittens~~
Since it's 1 am here and I'm too hyper to sleep
But still not ready to post product reviews just yet
I decided to do a post about art
~~~

I might be a weird combination considering I'm studying to be a scientist 
but still love art in all its forms and shapes
I've always been able to draw
and for some reason when I draw no matter how angry, sad, or upset I am
it all washes away
Art is my sanctuary
Art makes me feel happy and safe
Where I don't need to be anything but me and still feel the best I can ever be
I don't think anything made me feel as centred and in control as Art let me be
Art is a part of me and I am a part of Art.


My journey with art as I said started since I was a kid, I did have an off time around the 
6th grade due to the lack of encouragement and the constant negative feedback
and let me tell you
I never felt so lost and so not in order as I did then
after the 6th grade I went back to art
and it felt so good
Because I was able to express myself again
I was able to be me


I never really got much encouragement from my family
when I was a kid yes they did encourage me
but that stopped when I hit high school
it even came to points where they said to me a few times
"How long do you plan on continuing that silly drawing"
or
"Stop wasting your time and do something useful"
or 
"It's just a drawing why are you making such a big deal of it"
I never stopped though
I never listened to them
because what do they know?
They never experienced this level of ascendant in their minds
nor did the experience the liberating feeling of finishing a drawing
or even drawing to begin with
I don't know how to describe it
I don't think I can


Through good and bad Art has been here
Allowing me to be myself without any prejudice
without any hate
making me feel the best about myself even in my darkest times
even in my loneliest times
Art always made me feel happy 
the feeling is just unexplainable 
it's pure magic
that is Art at it's simplest explanation
It's pure and magical 

So if Anything I am happy and blessed to be an artist
to be able to express myself this way
I might not be the best
or might not be even considered good to many
but I don't care
Because I refuse to leave this entrancing world
just so I can do what people think is appropriate 
~~~~

Okay that's it for this post~~
I just wanted to share how Art affects me
and how important it is to me~
and by the way all these drawing are done by me

Please don't give up on your Art
for there is Nothing
that will make you feel as it does <3

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next post
Love and Kisses to all~~ <3
