So yeah...
This has kinda been bothering me for a while now... and it's a bit obscure, but...

What's up with the red cord tied around Ayako's bed? X_x I've tried to figure it out just from the game's information, and got nowhere. Is this something cultural, or just random added into the game to make it creepier...ish?
Oh, and where the fuck is that blasted doll in her bedroom >.<??!??!! I've looked just about everywhere minus breaking the game and crawling Alma-style under her bed @___@
If someone can tell me, I'd be grateful ^^

PS: Before someone asks... yes, I do own the game; yes., I have played it ( obviously, since I own it X_x ); no, I did not rip it off a torrent file or something like that. I bought it...
[small]which probably says something about me ._. I'm not sure what...[/small]

The color red in Japanese mythology is often associated with expelling demons and/or diseases so maybe You put it up there?
Also, if you mean those little hidden bonus dolls I can't remember there ever being one in her room but I'm not sure.

That might be it, though I don't think the character does... I came into the room and it was like that.

I'll let you know when I get there. Nearly finished 2, will play 3 and then tell you :p
I'm talking about the Japan-only #4... not #3... ._.

And I'm talking about getting up to speed. I'm not just going to play 4 am I? And you can't expect me just to skip a whole game. Just google a walk through or stop being dense.

Oi, no need for name calling...
That aside, the only games that are connected in the series ( so far ) are 1 and 3, and as far as I can tell, it's just that the main character ( or one of them, in the case of #3 ) is the same in both. So going out-of-order wouldn't be harmful. Kinda like how none of the main-"cannon" Final Fantasy games have anything whatsoever to do with each other, beyond maybe a few recurring character names (Cid, Biggs, and Wedge, mostly) and maaaybe the setting in a few of them x-X

PS: Found the doll on my own... feel kinda silly because I was just looking too low :x Damn those things can be in some tricky places...

Aww. Not even a little? Nothing spices up a conversation more.

As for continuity, I'm not fussed. I'm just enjoying playing the games in the order they're released and seeing how things change as time goes on.

Where'd you get your #4? I got mine off Ebay rather cheaply. Need to get the English subs patch working though.

Or, just maybe, you could stop overreacting.
Or maybe I couldn't?

School-ground opposition for opposition's sake might be more your speed then.
Let's face it, if someone's going to be immature they might as well run the full mile with it. At least, I like to think of it that way. After all, it's not like anyone's being terribly serious. Unless you were with that. in which case I'd be hurt and somewhat sad.

You came across as a dick with your walkthrough comment.
It's been so long since I've seen light-heartedness, I guess.
Ah really? Damn, I guess my personal brand of humour is hard to convey over the internet. I'm a dry individual. And to be honest, I don't post all too often. Let it not be said that I don't know how to take criticism though. I must apologise.

And to you if you thought I was trying to spark up a fight.

Yeah, no, sorry about that, no need to apologise.
Since twat is the most insulting we can go on these forums, lotta light stuff comes on strong I feel.
Well I won't hold it against you! Enjoy the rest of your day, I've gotta get back to work >.>
