World of Warcraft?!

You blaspheme!

Burn the heretic, burn the heretic!

I've discovered that not enough people use the Quicklaunch bar. It's good times, folks!

Someone's been reading Nietzsche.

I think someone has just been playing Xenogears. Not that there's anything wrong with reading Nietzsche. I certainly did a lot of it in High School.

The games logo is one of the first things you see when you look at the image. How could you get it wrong?

Murphie · 07-14-2006, 06:49 PM

Sorry, I was typing when I was on the phone. Xenosaga, obviously.

Well, I couldn't resist commenting on the pleasant surprise on seeing The Will to Power used as a subtitle somewhere.

All three Xenosaga games are subtitled some phrase from Nietzsche's works.

Episode 1: Der Wille zur Macht
Episode 2: Jenseits von Gut und Böse
Episode 3: Also sprach Zarathustra

So then the question is: are they mostly there to make it sound cool or are they an accurate reflection in some way of the related phrases/titles?

Xenosaga draws themes from many sources, including Nietzsche. The specific subtitles were chosen to reflect where the story of that game was going.

Nothing too incriminating.

I'm going to make a guess that the "Stuff" txt file is full of porn titles and torrent sites. Oh wait.
