Nisi prius venire ad me, quia ego sum malus.

Lately, I have not been up to much. I have completed Dishonored, including the DLCs The Knife of Dunwall and The Brigmore Witches. I skipped the Dunwall City Trials because they were meaningless runs devoid of content and story - and I play for story. It was indeed a short game, as video games go these days, but satisfying in play style and story nonetheless. It is certainly a spiritual successor to the Thief series; I will do a more in-depth comparison between the two when I get around to playing Thi4f - which will be as soon as it goes GOTY and is DLCed out.

In the meantime, I have moved on to Fallout New Vegas, sufficiently modded and patched. That will be an interesting sojourn. The name of my courier is Castaigne and it's a she, as is my tradition in Fallout games, complete with spiked mohawk and blue hair. All of the DLCs are loaded and she is awaiting beginning of play in good ol' Goodsprings.

Meanwhile, in real life I have been having conversations with myself on my love of conformity, promotions of obedience and hierarchy, and my predilection for order. I don't think these conversations are going well. My conclusions are quite simply summed up.
