It has been years since I played Planescape: Torment, and recently I thought about the game and Dak'Kon
I was in the tram to/from work, and I was thinking about the game.
Specifically, about Dak'Kon and the Teachings of Zerthimon.
Maybe it was because I was feeling a little down, overwhelmed by nonsense news, and I just needed to hear the iconic words again:
"Endure. In enduring, grow strong". I felt a little calmer.
To think a video game could help me feel better, calm down, really puts into doubt the notion that "video games are a waste of time", or even that "video games are not art".
Felt like sharing some minor story in the cosmos.
