Hi Phil.
I really ought to sort shades out. Unfortunately something wonkey seems to
have happened with my Gma account and I'm not listed as owning the game with
my account on the Gma site, and while David has given prefectly good
instructions on fixing this involving copying bits of information and user
codes and downloading new copies and what not I've just not particularly had
the energy to go through it for essentially getting what is effectively a
sound mod version of a game I already know very well, albeit an extremely
good one, which I know is admitedly very lazy and more about my general lack
of motivation than actual problems with the system. Indeed I've been vaguely
tempted to just pay the 19 usd and count the extra as a donation to Gma,
though again, the fact that when I already have a highly working copy on my
Xp machine it's hard to summon the enthusiasm.
This isn't to cryticise David and the upgrade, sinse I can see the point of
what he's done and playing with the mouse would be fun, and what I have
heard of the new sounds in the demo was nice, but it's just a case of
actually featuring something exciting and new and interesting enough to make
me get off my arse and take the trouble of installing it and refamiliarizing
myself with all the controls.
This is quite a contrast to say paladin of the Skies, where I really! was
eager to try the thing, or even The Ensign, the recent sequel to A dark Room
on Ios.
As I said, I'm not sure how much is my general apathy with games which is
probably just one part of my general apathy with life, as opposed to how
much is David not putting enough new and interesting stuff into the upgrade
to excite people who know the first game backwards like me, that is quite
another debate and one I'd need to considder, plus of course it's one which
i'd only be qualified to actually think about if I'd played shades 2.0 more
than I actually have.
Dark.
Zagreus sits inside your head,
Zagreus lives among the dead,
Zagreus sees you in your bed,
And eats you when you're sleeping.
Zagreus at the end of days,
Zagreus lies all other ways,
Zagreus comes when time's a maze,
And all of history's weeping.
Zagreus taking time apart.,
Zagreus fears the hero heart,
Zagreus seeks the final part,
The reward that he is reaping.
Zagreus sings when all is lost,
Zagreus takes all those he's crossed,
Zagreus wins and all is cost,
The hero's hearts he's keeping.
Zagreus seeks the hero's ship,
Zagreus needs the web to rip,
Zagreus sups time at a drip,
And life aside, he's sweeping.
