Cosplay Feature: Jess Blaze Cosplay's Lenne!

Shot by Savanyahs Who the HECK is Lenne?!? I always love seeing Jess Blaze Cosplay continue the Final Fantasy rabbit hole she's in with all the cosplays she's done from the franchise. Tackling the mysterious singer from X-2 alongside her friend Kam C Cosplay (as Yuna) felt like a natural next cosplay for her to create. This also wasn't Jess' first foray into the many dress-spheres that the sequel focused on. For the originator of the Songstress job class, there's a whole lot of blue here which you see immediately with the main top piece and arm sleeves. Starting from there, you have essentially a blue vest that has lighter blue frills along the edges. The dress also has differing lengths for each side. One giving off a midriff look whereas the other extends longer past the black skirt.

First Impressions: Dragon Fin Soup


One of the other games I tried out at PAX East this year was Dragon Fin Soup by developer Grimm Bros! Taking a wild shot in the dark thinking that the developer chose its name as an homage to the famous Grimm Fairy Tales. This first game of theirs definitely looks to have a similar vibe as the stories do. Cosplayer Destiny Nickelsen was asked to help promote for the game by creating an outfit for the main character! Like the other game I played I didn't manage to complete the demo due to having other things I wanted to check out. Unfortunately that happens when you only manage to get a 1 day pass to the convention. That doesn't mean I didn't pick up what was happening though in the game!

Dragon Fin Soup is a fantasy RPG/Strategy game where you control the main heroine Red Robin. From where I started, the game opened up with you as Red. Some dialogue took place and you were off chasing someone who I'm guessing did some bad action to either her or one of her friends. You control Red using the arrow keys and as you move to an object in your way, you automatically start attacking it. These objects include rocks and tree-stumps! As I traveled, the mini map in the corner revealed new areas. The end of this part resulted in you catching up to the person being chased only to have Red be beaten very easily. I noticed during this fight that along one of the corners were abilities you can use via pressing the number keys. Unfortunately I was too late to try and activate them as I had already died. Though I'm wondering if that was scripted and you were supposed to fail.

My time with the demo ended with Red waking up in a house wondering if what happened was a dream. Either that or the events that took place was a horrible dream. Overall the game was fun and the graphics were very colorful and detailed. The game has completed it's Kickstarter and is set to be made for PS4, PS3, Vita, PC, Mac and Steam.
