Hi, folks! I really am working on a review. ^_^; I expect I’ll have it ready sometime next week. I apologize for not having it done sooner; part of it’s life, part of it’s “Something else distracted me”, and part of it’s… well… I’ll explain further in.

I’m working on writing a novel right now. A novel I hadn’t felt much inspiration for in ages, so I figured I’d best take advantage of it while I have the chance. It’s a fun, weird, mostly frivolous thing — and completely at odds with the seriousness of the game I’m reviewing. Basically, if I play this game while I’m working on the novel, it’ll probably ruin my flow; working too much on the review script while I’m in the wrong frame of mind might not get the results I want. So, as soon as either A)I get writer’s block or B)I finish the in-depth planning (which I’m fairly close to doing), I’ll jump feet first back into the game. ^^

The other issue is that this game means a lot to me. IMO, it probably has the most affecting story I’ve ever experienced in a game, and I’m kinda worried that my meager reviewing skills couldn’t possibly be up to reflecting its beauty. In other words (oddly) my respect for this game is kinda giving me stage fright. But, hey, I had similar worries going into my Metroid review, and that one turned out all right.

In the meantime, I thank everyone for being patient with me. I’ll try to provide more regular updates… as soon as I work out some other issues that tend to get in the way.

Love,
