The final battle is pretty tricky and the first fight that introduces one of the game's nastier enemies can be a struggle but Grissom seems to spike the difficulty at a time when you don't have a lot of powerful/upgraded abilities.

Strangely enough Grissom Academy is actually one of the hardest parts of the game.

Huh, I don't remember it being that finicky at all. And I did finish it again earlier this year.

I like that tutorial: (a) It makes clever use of the narrative's framing device - for the first and only time in the game; (b) It avoids the usual problem of tactical rpgs in which your characters start with one to three moves, thereby making the combat boring for the first three hours with no hint of what's to come;…

(1) Pooping regularly is good for the bowls, or so a friend's mother who happened to be a nurse once told me. Unless there's anything weird going on with your stools (bloody, watery) there's probably no cause for concern.

I think that part of Dan's response was more than a little tongue-in-cheek.

Yeah, in the Middle Ages people could get arrested for even suggesting such a thing.

Amazing comment/user name synergy.

Yes, the more famous one. I've only seen the other guy in a few Johnny To films and Tsui Hark productions but he's never seemed especially appealing to me.

"I first knew I wanted to work in an emergency ward when I saw Cronenberg's Crash."

And it's preceded by a conversation which more or less sums up the movie's theme by suggesting that one man's life can't be defined by a single word - or something like that.
