How many people had to die to fill that valley with greenery? How many I ask you? Did you ever think of that ensconed in your little cube of ignorant bliss??? No you didn't did you!!!

Well why not??!!??

Urm, yes, anyway. Hi everybody! Just popping in today on the way to write an essay on JS Mill. Oh the joy. Can anyone tell me what the relationship between the society and the individual in Mills "On Liberty" is in 1500 words?

(BTW to avoid spamming a conversation thread with 18th Century political philosiphy could we restrict our answers to the above question to: "No". Thank you... [img]tongue.gif[/img] )

Neb, that's depressing indeed, I mean about PS: T. I mean, wandering about in the sooty city full of zombies, doing "Fedex quests," and being followed around by a floating skull. I don't get the appeal. Is it some punk sesibility, do you think? I notice that a lot of the people, dead and alive, wear Mohawks. Jerome, did you enjoy it? Anybody?

It's a depressing game, yes, but it's still fun, and somewhat philosophic sometimes....

Also, there are a few non-depressing things about the game, Morte is one of them....

I'm enjoying PS:T immensely. Getting your intestines scooped out of your belly by some old, near-blind hag and finding a ring of protection inside is just something that never happened in any other game I've played. Also, finding different body parts that used to be attached to you in a past life scattered about the place, and getting some cool tattoos inbetween killing yourself repeatedly to prove to various people that death might not be what they expect appeals to me for some reason I'd rather not think too long about. Ah well, to each his own, I guess.

After having gone on a memory spree a few nights ago and read through old CCafes, I think I will hold up tradition....

I'm still on our hotel internet link, and he's showering and shaving. Just enogh time to post on my two favorite threads, here and my beloved "Imoen Same-Sex Romance" thread. Getting some interesting responces. Love you all, will check in again this afternoon, when credit cards are maxed out, j/k.
