Notes
Hollow Victory
The Artful Gamer writes about the hollow victory of playing a good character in many roleplaying videogames: “Yet, days later, I feel like Conan the Barbarian, sitting on his throne at
the end of the first film like a king who has done it all yet feels
ultimately unfulfilled. This is when the spiritual hollowness of
traditional RPGs grates at me.”
