Because I am currently minus a job, I
have had time to explore the many deep reaches of the internet and
gaming world. That's right, I'm a nerd, but not quite a gaming nerd.
I don't game that much.
This gives me three things to tell you
about.
My first thing is, of course, a nerdy
thing: Skyrim. It is made by the same creators of the Fallout series
(another favorite of mine) and Oblivion, so basically it is a game
where you explore, make decisions which effects your character's
morals, go on quests, and basically get killed a million times if you
are me. Still, though I have to save often, it is fun, because I like
the freedom to do what I want when I want. There is not linear
progression which is mandatory and I can choose to upgrade where I
want. For instance I could be an amazing blacksmith but a horrible
swords smith. Right now, I'm a mage class human who is also good with
the sword and bow and arrow. The one bad thing about that is
I don't grow strong in just magical powers or just swordplay. It
makes the progress in one's growth as a magician fairly slow, but
it's worth it cause I have magical armor that protects me from both
the sword and spells, and I can defeat things that I wouldn't have
otherwise.
My
point to you is, if you are a person who loves games where you can
just wander and build up the character, than this is the game for
you.
The
next thing, or I should say person, which/who has caught my attention
is Felicia Day. She has become quite the hero to the nerd world;
after all she is smart, beautiful, and games. See! We are cool too.
On youtube I am now subscribed to two of her programs: Geek and
Sundry, and Felicia Day.
Here
are the sights:
Lastly
is my short term fascination with a church in Kansas. I'm not going
to say their name, because I don't have anything good to say about
them. I was just so awestruck at how much hatred they showed that I
couldn't stop researching them. Not once in the full amount of time
that I looked them up did I see anything loving about them. They are
a church? Isn't that what they are supposed to preach? I kind of felt
sorry for the children of the church because of the brain washing and
the constant preaching they were being inundated with.
Thankfully
my cousin stepped in and reminded me that I was doing exactly the
same thing as them: judging. I don't want to be that person. So, my
obsession is over, and I learned an important lesson: don't worry
about what other people are doing wrong (especially if I can't do
anything about them), but about myself, and how I can better myself
in the Kingdom that is God's.
Well
thank you for reading my blog
Sincerely,
Me
I guess I have to try Skyrim :-)
