Passing

Why the silence? Well, the days grows darker and darker. I'm still adjusting, but things are looking alright as I find a balance.

First of all: Elections. Denmark has been launched into the good old election circus, with clowns competing for votes with novel tricks that grow ever more spectacular. Well... We've seen it before, although a new sort of spice seems to have found its way into the fray. The political landscape has grown more likely to provide a few surprises, with one new party formed and a few jokers here and there. Still, I think I know where my vote ends, and there is rarely any point in watching the endless duels between liars and hippocrites.

Between social activities and studies, I find myself on the great battlefields of World War II, or in the dark fantasy world of the Witcher. In my eyes, a good single-player RPG is ideally like a good book that draws you in... the difference is that you have choices in a game, and you don't have to conjure up images to imagine the world - which is of course both good and bad. Nevertheless, the freedom that such an alternate world provides is, though limited, very refreshing.

I'm closing in on being half-way through the game, but I suspect it will take a while before I'm done. No rush though; I like exploring all the little quirks of that imaginary world.
