Les Misérables is an incredible piece of literature. I think of it as sort of the Ulysses of 19th century French literature, as an attempt to make a complete statement of the social, political, and cultural zeitgeist.
Speaking of Ulysses, I’d love to play a modernist, stream-of-consciousness, highly symbolic but disjointed narrative with multiple character perspectives RPG set in a single city in a single day right about now.
I found myself staring at my computer at work today, pretending to do something because I was too caught up in the debate going on about DLC. I liked how Chris never really backed off even when the whole panel was jumping on him. Makes for good listening.
PERSISTDUSTRY! OBSTINACYGRESS!
DLC is the end of video games …
It’s actually a mark of the end of days, SN. If you read the Bible carefully, you will see that it says:
“And lo the Lord cometh to save His true believers when the video game companies charge for DLC. He shall reach His hand out to grasp thine own, and pull thee to Heaven, ever merciful.”
Cthulu be praised!
Well, Lusi, you may call Chris persistdustrious and obstinacygresional but prefer to think of him as devils advocatorial.
The devil doesn’t need an advocate, he has Bobby Kotick!
In the same way I “have” my body, you could say the devil “has” Bobby Kotick. Sure.
