[Xenogears Stuff.]

When I was around 11 years old, I went into my first 'gaming' chatroom, equipped with my love for FFVII (as it hadn't been out long and I was obsessed with it, and Cloud, naturally.) When I went into that room, a lot of people kept mentioning a game called Xenogears, and they spoke very highly of it. In fact, it was the popular consensus that it was just as good as FFVII was. I never got a chance to play that game, though, and over the years, I heard less and less of it. I went through all of high school all but forgetting that the game existed. No one I knew or met had played it or even really heard of it. It faded into the recesses of my memory, and I really never gave it any further thought.

Ten years later, I stumble upon it again sifting through cosplay ideas. I'm completely astounded by just how many Keika characters there are in this game. I am usually lucky to find a "sort-of" Keika character. To have more than one is unheard of, and to have one look as similar as it does is just... strange. When I saw Miang and Elly I can hardly describe how weird it was. Miang was like they had taken the picture straight off my facebook, then changed the color scheme a bit. Before you disagree about Elly, just cover up the long hair and look at the face. You might think otherwise but, maybe I'm on something, I see some of myself in her. Kelvina was alright, but I didn't see as much Keika in her as I did the other two (I have a feeling my friends will disagree.)

When I saw them, I knew I had to play the game. As fate would have it, the internet has finally given me the access to play it that I have waited so many years to have. I'll have to work out a few kinks, but I look forward to getting to know the characters, and just playing the game itself.

Of course, there were also two Sheiky characters that I found, Seraphita and Margie. (My vote is on Seraphita, I love her slightly-tanned skin paired with the pink hair, it's really cute. :3) Another candidate was Maria, but I don't see as much Sheiky in her.
The Ne-chan one, Tolone, isn't too terribly awesome looking in this picture, but it's who I think of when I look at her.

The weirdest thing is there really weren't any Kay-chan characters. I can't express how rare that is, it seems like every game I see there's a Kay-chan character blatantly in it. I have a feeling my friends will say that she should be Elly. *shrugs* I don't see it, but I don't see her botching it either.

Anyway, I think that when Ne-chan does her KOS-MOS costume, I will bust out a Xenogears outfit, because I like the way these characters look more than any Xenosaga characters I can think of, and if I can get the game working, I might like the game more too. :) I just thought I'd share, heh heh. Toodles for now! :D
