A Cheerful Post

 Switched from Kotor to Baldur's Gate.  Kotor was really good for expending nervous energy, and BG is not.  I mean, BG seems to be a good game and all so far, but there's something about it that makes me anxious.  Also it's really difficult to rp in BG.  The support characters I'm attached to emotionally aren't the best team set up, and I might have to switch them out for a better party...  But like I said, I'm emotionally invested in them, even though the necromancer only has four hit points and I've been PKed by four kobolds.  AD&D-style kobolds too, not those scary 4e kobolds.  If the party doesn't get tougher they can't fight what's getting thrown at them, but if they don't fight they won't level up and get tougher...  GAH

Still don't have the energy to rp Fr. Gil.  Maybe I should withdraw him temporarily from the rp or something.  gah

My doctor's putting me on yet another medication, so hopefully I'll start feeling better soon.  Still can't do anything.  Everything ether makes me anxious or is boring.  UNHAPPINESS

I've heard Baldur's Gate is hard to play. It's neat you have a necromancer in your party though. You don't see a ton of those as helpful npc's.

I'm sorry your feeling bad! Is there anything I can do?

Oh, is it? So I'm not just doing it all wrong, hm.

Yeah, my party's half good, half evil. They constantly make these little snide remarks to each other. It's great. :D

Nah, don't worry about it. I just need to wait for the meds to kick in. :)

Awwww they chat with eachother that is adorable. What's the necromancer's story?

Yeah, they all make little comments: when you click on them (they say things like 'stop touching me!' <3), when you tell them to do things, and at random they're talk to each other. Oh! And they say things when one of them dies, too. The good ones usually say sad things about the loss of a companion, unless the downed party member is evil, when they say 'Oh wait, I never liked you!' The evil ones are fairly unsympathetic towards people dying and being inconvenient and so forth. One of the good party members stutters. They're all adorable.

I recently found out my adored party may need splitting up for different reasons, though--the two particular pairs I've got have a 50% chance of attacking each other! :O

The necromancer's kind of crazy, so his backstory isn't real clear, but apparently he and his halfling companion work for some ominous organization that wants them to investigate the game's iron shortage plot.
