HypersomniacLive: You are free to try the trick tonight. :-DD

And if you think for a moment that I'm intimidated by that glitter stuff and your intentions, think again. ;-P
What do you mean try it tonight, how do you think I'm answering this message :-).

Why would I want to intimidate you with the glitter? It's part of the fun with a sleepover, and I have just the right skimpy pair of pjs for you as well, all pink and silky.

HypersomniacLive: A little? Understatement of the month. ;-D
Just make sure you are on my team and you will be fine :-).

avatar
HypersomniacLive: Obligatory question - which one is you? ;-P
None, I wanted to join in, but this is Star Wars, there's a limit to how many women can exist in the universe. How many women were actually in the original three movies? It seemed like a bit of a boys only universe to me.

HypersomniacLive: I tend to play games from German studios in German, and have yet to play any again in English.
Sadly not an option for me. What I don't understand, is that surly the English language version would be the most used version, so why use such horrible voice actors? It's as though they do it deliberately to annoy the non-German speaking users.

Enebias: ...
So I'm guessing her name is Iris :-). It's always funny when they have the character continually saying the other person's name, then ending with the usual look up at the sky and scream the name one more time.

Wow, I' getting envious here, you wouldn't happen to have a spare pair? I would even bring my pillow.

Why not, the more the merrier, especially since you brought your very own manly pillow. I'm not sure how practical it would be, let's find out. But before we do, I have the perfect pair of pjs for you.... Now then, don't you look pretty in your my little pony pjs. Let's get on with the pillow fight :-).

Senteria: You mean Tidus of FF X? I liked his voice actor.
avatar
ddickinson: I was referring more to characters like the main guy from The Whispered World. I was not too keen on Tidus. I never hated the voice exactly, but I wasn't that keen on it. The character fitted into the whole effeminate Japanese man thing they seem to keep doing, which is something I have never been a fan off - always whining and bitching. I preferred Auron's character and voice actor a lot more. Even Rikku was more manly than Tidus.

I didn't stop me enjoying the game though. It was the last FF game I played, I lost interest after seeing the eye candy FFX-2 game and all the cash grab spin off games.
Oh same here. I liked FF X-2 but it wasn't great. It was a fun game, but not that great storywise.
But FF 12 was a big disappointment and stopped right there. Never picked up another FF game that came after 12 and I never managed to finish 12.

James Arnold Taylor voiced Tidus in English.

It's interesting that you felt that way about FFXII Senteria. One thing I've always loved about the FF games is that they change the battle system and story every time. It really helps to keep it fresh. I honestly like them all for one reason or another, but I really liked the story from XII. The combat system was a little too "mmo" for my liking, but the story really had great bones. I do wish that it hadn't gone through development hell and that YasMat (Yasumi Matsuno) hadn't left the project. He came up with the original concept and I'm sure it would have turned out much more satisfying in the end. Still, I enjoyed the story even with its rough patches.

I meant perform the trick at the sleepover, I was sure that you didn't just find that pic. :-)

Did I mention that I also hate pink? Silky and skimpy is fine, but no pink please.

Here, you can have mine if you so into pink. ;-P

And she was not kidding with that "be on her team and you'll be fine" - she's vicious and ruthless, plus has extensive experience from her days as an evil mercenary.

I assure you they do enough to equally annoy their German speaking users by not including German language in the initial digital releases.

That's okay, we have lots of spare pairs. What colour would you like?

I think I can only remember about two women with speaking lines. I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan...

* Puts on tin hat and jumps in to trench, ready for attack from the angry Star Wars nerds *

... but I did find it a bit strange at the lack of women. The only place you really see them (other than the princess and the lady giving the mission briefing) is as eye candy in Jabber's palace, but I can't remember if that was the original or the remake they did in the 90's.

Don't think of it as 'pink'... think of it as 'lightish red'.

*Awakens to a din of soft thuds and fluffy thwacks and turns over to see a twinkly mist of glitter and down hanging in the air. In one wobbly motion gathers himself up and lunges into the fray swinging blindly with a barley pillow. Knocks over the Jenga table or whatever that was, smashes someone with a big blue eye and a distressingly skimpy onesie over the head, spies a corpse on the floor with a pillow-shaped rock next to its head, and then notices a befishnetted leg behind the couch. Lurches over there and begins pillow spanking the bejesus of the stripper's bottom like an old school principal. Flush with savagery, emits a guttural yawp and charges headlong across the room, trips over the bathroom threshold and slides prostrate across the tiles, coming to a gentle stop against the toilet, and with his head already lolling on the barley pillow, returns to slumber*


I loved reading the responses to the voice acting questions. Very enjoyable answers, particularly the playing with the sound off.


Thanks again to ddickinson for putting on this sleepy scene.

Thank you for taking part and asking the extra question. I don't know how interesting the two thread have been to others, but I have found them very enjoyable and informative.

Considering that we are on page 14 and the last pages barely had some "I'm in" statement in between I guess people just enjoy this thread.

I'm with the other guys - lightish red already has a name - it's PINK!!

I don't remember much from the prequel trilogy (late 90s on onwards), but I believe that both trilogies were equally sparse in women.

And do you by any chance mean Jabba (the Hutt)? If so, then he appears in the last instalment of the original trilogy. Can't recall much about the eye-candy ladies though.

Even though you deemed it necessary to start with the new guest (gee, thanks!), that was quite enjoyable. Now I have to go through the thread to see if and how many of these episodes you posted.

HypersomniacLive: How exactly do you mean this? And I don't ask in regards to gaming.
Any woman whom I have ever been able to speak to candidly regarding "that time of the month" has agreed that it is unpleasant. There are a number of medications and surgical implants on the market that enable periods to happen less frequently or, in some cases, not at all. I think it's safe to say, at least from the women I know, that this is the worst aspect of being a woman. The bleeding, the cramps, the mood swings; it certainly doesn't sound like a party.
