I tried playing Firewatch for the first time (it is a bit of an older game) and I thought it would be about watching fires in the woods, but no. The game begins with you being a young guy in college who meets a young girl, you fall in love, marry, and then you have to choose between letting her go to have a teaching career at Yale or discouraging her, and then she develops Alzheimer's and you have to choose between taking care of her or giving her to the clinic. Wtf? Since when are games made to make you depressed instead of just fun?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

As I move, watching my braid swing to and fro across the blade at my back, the fact that the hair isn't being sliced off is probably indicative of how dull the blade is and why I can never do any real damage against enemies.

So, I switched it up again. A few times. Never satisfied.
Not playing durge. But I do plan on recruiting Minthara this time around. The hard way. Maybe.

It's not as though I have anything else I want to play right now. Guess I just went after Lorroakan too soon. And, as usual, I did not save properly.
I don't know why multiple saves bother me, but they just do.

I'm now prone to getting the Alert fear for everyone in my party comp at level four, due to its extreme usefulness.

It really sucks that they removed the option for sorcerers to twin two good spells in the beginning. Witch Bolt and Ice Bolt.
Supposedly, though, you can twin cast spells from scrolls. Might need to stock those in camp if this is true.

I've decided to try the
cheesy, OP party comp, sacrificing skill for raw power.
Fighter and three sorcerers.

Nope, can't twin just any scroll.

Astarion to the necrotic book: "No, I won't kill them. Well, maybe Shadowheart."
