As long as I don't have glare, I'm mostly happy with my monitor. Low refresh rates are nasty, indeed. I remember the computer labs at my college dorm had really bad CRT monitors and occasionally you could literally see them flicker. Expectedly, they irritated the eyes and could cause headaches.

Heh, I am mostly the opposite of asexual; I have quite an appetite, if you know what I mean... But don't tell Raadec about this! The good thing si that I have enough self-control not to be affected by porn or the sight of naked people. Yes, some folks turn into drooling zombies at the sight of a bared mammary gland, but not me. Yup, no one seems to care about what happens after all the panting and sweating is over. Do they at least keep in touch? Did the sink get fixed in the end? Was that guy really a plumber???

One more reason to dig deeper into Diablo - not only do you never know what you might find from an unlikely place, but there's also the added element of not every item being useful to your current character. I've had quite a few cases when I find this really nice heavy armor, but it would be pointless since it was found by my spellcaster char who can't even wear it due to the high strength requirement. And then my burly warrior char can find this really nice magic wand... Total randomness. But that makes the game more entertaining due to the unpredictability.

Oh dear, memories from literature class flooding in. Yes, we were expected to find symbolic meaning in even the smallest of details. Some things are obvious symbols and the author clearly intended them to be such, and that's fine, but this can easily escalate into an obsessive hunt for hidden meanings. As for essays - they are best used for bombastic things like "staggering rays and deafening shadows" (actual quote!). What better way to demonstrate those private lessons you attended than to write something that leaves the reader exhausted after the first paragrah. Porn essays - now that would be interesting to see.

Well then, I hope your sausage isn't too dry... cause it would be hard to swallow :D

(Raadec made me write this, I swear!)

Looking back is a nice feeling, especially for a long game. Daggerfall is both long and nasty, so looking back and knowing you've won is almost like the feel of having climbed the Everest. You've made it ot the end of a long journey and perhaps you've grown a little wiser. Or more insane, in oir case.

Ah yes, I think I was explaining about the energy shunting thing - which is quite important. It would surely be interesting to see how far you can go, and you already demonstrated that you have grasped like 90-95% of the skills necessary to beat the game. The other obvious pick is Diablo, which also started very nicely and would surely get even better as you go deeper into the realm of evil.

I'll just have to remember my login and pass for the Mixer... if my account is still alive.

Of course we'll do some Quake server too. It was a very fun experience, even with the whole left-hand inconvenience.
