It's really weird when girls who are so attractive as to have artists use them as models for photography and even sculpture and who get more marriage proposals than most women get hit on start getting jealous over another girl's looks.

It's like Aphrodite being jealous of Venus.
I can kind of understand what you're saying, but for some reason the sentences don't line up right in my head.
It's very poorly constructed

Well games suffer from the idea that the hero has to have no story defining them since the player is supposed to be "assuming" that role. And thats total bullshit. Max Payne 2 was one of my favorite games because I connected with Max.
Yeah, they spend too much time focusing on choose-your-own-adventure and lose the chance to tell a really great story with the RIGHT choices.
Of course, you can tilt too far in that direction too and lose the advantages of the medium.

See: Final Fantasy and Metal Gear Solid series

I'm a big fan of the "option A: eat the nun's heart; option B: donate your castle to orphanage" dilemma. And by "big fan" I mean "FILLED WITH UNENDING NERD RAGE HATRED!"

I went do see the Bodies exhibit today. It's a show of autopsyed bodies showing the different parts of your body. It was done by that German guy who did the live autopsys on Channel 4 a few years back.

It was spectacular.
Isn't that the one where they used executed chinese prisoners for the exhibit?
Nah, it was unclaimed chinese peasants who died in some natural disaster iirc.

pics from the internet! probably nsfw

In some ways it might be better, they're both solid games (assuming you like their style and genre) but going from one 80 hour epic SRPG weird demonic anime number grind to a second 80 hour epic SRPG weird demonic anime number grind might be... umm... taxing.

You'll miss the context of a handful of cameos and inside jokes, but not so much that you can't understand them at all.
Also if you just want to do the story missions for Disgea 1 you could probably get through them in a day or two.
