Reflexively oneshotting an enemy across a big storage hall with a sniper, fired from the hip, in Deus Ex. Making Wynne cast a glyph of repulsion - or whatever it was called - on a doorway and watching everyone inside the room beyond burn to cinders in an inferno or your own casting in DA:O...

The Canticle of Threnodies 8:13 before that is more striking in my opinion: "And so is the Golden City blackened, with each step you take in my Hall. Marvel at perfection, for it is fleeting. You have brought Sin to Heaven, and doom upon all the world."

I often pass up on statistically superior gear in games because I don't think they suit my characters. So yes. Hell yes.

I'm not going to go tl;dr, for I did read the parts about games I have played and therefore can say something about, but more like "too long; won't answer" because addressing everything point you raised is WAY more than I can bother to write. A short version of my views, however: Yeah, I...

Ahh, no no, not that part. What I dread is that part about the possibility of you as a being that lives forever getting trapped somewhere with no way out except hope for somebody to find you - which might take millions of years - being 100%. Imagine being stuck in a collapsed mine, or the bottom...

http://www.cracked.com/article_17185_7-awesome-super-powers-ruined-by-science_p2.html About not being killed by way of wounding... See point number 1: Immortality.

Joining the small group of decliners. I think life is more appreciated when it's in lesser supply, and I don't want to hog it all to myself, and I do want to see my (not necessarily biological, but as said here, not enough orphans for everyone) kids grow up, and I don't want to increase my...

As another Finn I'll be starting my service in the Defence Forces in January as well. Just to add to what my countrymen here have said, it's not totally compulsory: nowadays you can also go for civil service, which is basically a year of community service. Going through the army is more common...

Escapambibilibandoes is actually pretty easy to say, once you just try it! I am all for that one.

My thanks. Us non-native English speakers make silly mistakes sometimes.

I must say I wasn't expecting the French to be the first ones to execute piratism with some balls.

Depends. But I haven't been interested enough in that dilemma to actually pay attention to what it depends on.

I read quite a few, but there's no question as to which one is my favourite: Homestuck. Not that I expect anybody to actually read a post this far, but if you for some reason do - and don't know Homestuck - go read it. It's long as hell and takes a while to get into, but it's totally...

Woah, wait, say what? You're kidding, right? Of course you are. As a Finn I know you must be kidding. Myself I will side with the Brits. Americans have their bright stars, too, but to my knowledge they aren't as many as their British colleagues. Also, the amount of stupid crap claiming to be...

Dwarves. Combat skills at Legendary and everything of exceptional quality and made of titanium, exept for hammers and maces which will be silver. Depending on how long the assault will last, I might have to designate a food stockpile on the first circle, but I doubt it will come to that...
