Somebody fix this god forsaken internet

Blogging has become more of a pain in the ass than usual. Beyond the point where it becomes fun.

So I just dl'd the Magna Carta 2 game demo and I have to point out two major problems with it. Firstly, the demo is 5 minutes long. I know how they say they want to give you a taste, but this is like a drop of icing from a giant 200 kilo slice of lie(cake). I don't see how you're supposed to get a taste if whatever you're tasting is overwhelmed by the tidal wave of saliva coming from your frothing, dribbling excuse of a mouth.

Secondly, it's in Japanese. No subtitles, no nothing. Pure Japanese. In other words I spent half an hour(i have slow interwebs) downloading a demo that consisted of 5 minutes of Japanese; which, if you haven't realised by now, i don't understand a fucking word of. So I spend about 2 minutes flailing through what's supposed to be the tutorial wondering what the flipping fuck I'm supposed to be doing and fiddling around with the controls until it sends me to the next bit. Of tutorial.

And once I'm finally done guessing my way through all the controls, it finally throws me into a fight. Yay! I run around a bit getting used to fighting while delightfully beating the living shit out of these goat things that don't make biological sense, and it's fun, yes. Then I beat the shit out of this larger goat thing that carries bigger swords. Then the demo ends.

What.

Yes the fighting is fun.
Yes the chick with the low-cut, frilly white dress is total sex appeal.
Yes I'm interested, somehow.

BUT the fighting, at this point, is very bland and uninspired; consisting of wailing on some poor sod a few times before unleashing a chain attack and resetting your attack gauge. No doubt as with any other JRPG fighting will get more interesting but they didn't show us that, and what a smart idea that was.
FURTHERMORE, the chick with the low-cut, frilly white dress is - inevitably - nonexistent
WHILE whatever interest i have is more or less related to the above mentioned chick in the frilly white dress. Who throws balls of water at things. With her staff.

No euphemism there.

Of course i also want to see how the fighting pans out and actually understand what in hell the story's supposed to be about, but I don't have high hopes and more likely than not I'll just pass up this game. After a few years I've realised how much of a waste of money JRPGs are because you actually finish them. It's not like Halo where you play and play and play and kill and murder and shoot and splaser, no; You play once and nearly all of it's play value is completely benched. I'm not going to play through a second time, hell no. The only thing that would make me play again would be extra content, cause I'm like that; and real extra content, too, not just a slightly bigger and shinier sword or a slightly more revealing and frillier white dress.

EDIT: Given all that shit i just laid on, MCII does actually pique my interest a little. That, and the artwork is orgasmic. So sue me, I'm an artwork whore.
