    Is Vagrant Story available on your PSN ? I know it hasn' t been released in the US yet. Great game, but hard game.
    Anyway, you' re probably fishing for something else than a PS1 SE game (no need for advice about those) ...

    Maybe you should just ask her ? You don' t wanna end up suffering, but clearly you already do.
    If she' s serious about it then YAY, and if she isn' t then at least you' ll know. Asking her shouldn' t damage your friendship, if that' s what bothers you. If it does ... well then I guess she wasn' t really worth your trust.

    Nope, Fortress wasn' t suposed to be FFXII, FFXII was never outsourced to anyone. Fortress was supposed to take place in Ivalice right after FFXII.

    That' s what I thought too, since I understand Italian a little without having studied it at all, but then I went to Italy on a school trip.
    The first day we tried to speak either in English or Spanish, but no one understood a single word. We then tried French, and quickly noticed that lots and lots of Italians speak French : it' s the first language they learn in Italian schools.

    ^ Maybe English won' t help you through Asia, but it should help you through Europe (depends which country you had in mind).
    The only countries where French would help more than English, to my knowledge, are French speaking countries and Italy.

    I corrected all of the spelling errors and notified the lines that don' t feel natural. By the way, you can download the French dictionary into your Windows auto-spell check function.

    Je m'appelle ~name~. J'ai dix-sept ans. Mon anniversaire est le dix-neuf février. J'ai trois sœurs, une mère et un père (you should rather say "J' habite avec mes trois sœurs, ma mère et mon père", stating that you have a father and a mother is quite funny, the way you did it : of course you have, who doesn' t ?). Mes couleurs favorites sont le rose, le vert et le bleu. J'adore les chats et les singes. Je joue au football et à la crosse. Mes acteurs favoris sont Rupert Grint, Nicholas Hoult, Megan Fox, Jack O'Connell et Robert Sheehan. J'aime écouter Florence + the Machine, Mumford & Sons, Minus the Bear, Against Me!, Cary Brothers, Tegan and Sara et Matt & Kim. (Saying "Mes groupes de musique préférés sont Florence + the Machine etc ..." would feel more natural. I' m nitpicking though, your sentence is alright) J'ai lu des livres de John Green et Ellen Hopkins. (since you talk about books again later on maybe it would be better to say "Mes auteurs préférés sont John Green et Ellen Hopkins") Mes films favoris sont Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World, Jeux D'enfants, The Dreamers et Amélie. Je rêve de visiter New York, Paris, Londres et Tokyo (that' s the way we call those cities). Mes livres favoris sont Never Let Me Go, Looking for Alaska, Perks of Being a Wallflower, Go Ask Alice, Crank, et la BD Scott Pilgrim (BD means "Bande Dessinée", "comique" means "funny" in French. You can also leave it as "le comics", with the "s" at the end even if it' s not plural. We do know that it' s an American BD. It' s pronounced the same way as in English). Les vêtements que je préfère sont les chaussures. (It would feel more natural to say something like "Je suis obsédée par les chaussures, j' en ai toute une collection")

    The word "stereotype" already implies that it' s BS, you know ?
    xOxnaminexOx asked a serious question, although she did in the spamzone, and some of us delivered, that' s it. Even if stereotypes are BS everyone is surrounded by them. Knowing a little about them isn' t a bad thing, especially if you want to travel.
    It' s general culture isn' t it ? Just one more way to realize that there are many different point of views all over the world. What' s even more interesting is to wonder where those stereotypes came from, which is why I explained how and why the "God bless America" is perceived negatively in Europe : that' s exotic to us and often misinterpreted.
    I won' t ask where the "surrender cheese eating monkeys" line came from cause I already know it' s from the Simpsons.

    A little more info about FFType 0 : there' a FFType 0 website now.
    http://www.destructoid.com/finalfantasytype0-com-is-a-thing-190700.phtml

    Also, someone mentioned in a FF French forum that GRIN, a developer studio that doesn' t exist anymore, was doing a "Fortress" project for SE. When the team was disbanded SE got the project back into its lap. It' s supposed to take place in Ivalice. Maybe it became Type 0 ? Here are some artworks :

    For some reason the second Twilight Town theme sounds kinda bitter-sweet to me. Hell, Twilight Town itself is kinda depressing to me.
    Xion' s death theme was also quite sad. The saddest theme of all IMO is probably the main title screen theme (from any KH game). The most depressing version, to me, was probably the one we can hear in Twilight Town though. ^^ I don' t know if the music itself would have struck a chord inside me if it wasn' t playing over sad pictures.

    You can already do that, you just have to type the "=spoilsubject" yourself.
    Huh ? It doesn' t work ? What the hell, that' s strange ...

    When I look at the Task Manager, right now, it tells me that Firefox.exe is using 120 000 Ko. That' s a big number for Firefox, it means I' ve spent a lot of time using it and watched many web pages and videos (especially videos, they take a lot of memory space). Consequently, when I' ll try and close Firefox it will take some time to really shut down. If I try to run it again immediately Windows will tell me that Firefox is still running, even though I can' t see it in the Task Manager anymore. It' s not a bug, it' s normal, I don' t think changing your browser would change that fact.

    Also, if I try to watch many videos without closing Firefox and opening it again every now and then I may experience some streaming download lag in the long run: Firefox "remembers" everything you watch, so the more web pages or videos you watch the more Firefox consumes memory.

    To be fair I could probably find people just as dumb in France. If you have trouble answering most of those questions, BE SCARED !!!

    In KH everyone has a keyblade sleeping inside of them. When Aqua met Kairi she gained a new keyblade from that new bond : Kairi' s inner keyblade. However it seems that a person needs some "unlocking" to use his inner keyblade. When Terra acknowledges Riku he says this :
    In your hand take this key. So long as you have the makings then through this simple act of taking its wielder you shall one day be.
    So long as you have the makings ? Does it mean you could in fact unlock your inner Keyblade just by yourself ? Since everything in KH seems related to bonds I think all you really need to unlock your inner Keyblade is a special bond or a special mindset. There' s plenty of hints about Aqua being more sensible to bonds than any other character in KH. Terra' s sentence implies that "having the makings" is much more important than anything else. There' s a good chance for this whole "ritual" to be just a lore thing, a way to create a special bond with the people you acknowledge to be worthy, touching the Keyblade being a symbolic act rather than an actual necessity.

    Anyway, if you do need to touch a Keyblade then whether it was a conscious act or not either Sora or Riku unlocked Kairi (probably Riku : he was with Kairi just before she awoke her own Keyblade).

    Most Europeans never heard that song, they never will, and even if they did they wouldn' t understand it.
    However most Europeans have heard the translation of "God bless America" used as a punctuation in numerous political rousing speeches (either in movies or in real speeches, "Que Dieu bénisse l' Amérique !"), and if we replaced it with "We rule you drool" or "My righteous sense is tingling" the meaning would seem the same to most of us. To an European ignorant of the original song it wouldn' t change the perceived meaning.

    That' s a stereotype, of course, but I suspect lots of people are actually dumb enough to see you that way.

    Tu veux dire "comme je l' ai moi-même traduit en Français, les Américains sont tous devenus des noobs" ?
