Deciding to track down the killer himself, Marcus travels to a warehouse, where he is abducted. Upon arriving, the team discovers a tape recorder and a skinned corpse, identified as Schenk. ![]() A small vial inside the box directs the police to a butcher shop, which was previously a hobby shop that Banks and his father, retired chief Marcus Banks, would go to. A box then arrives at the station, containing a pig puppet and a piece of Schenk's tattooed skin inside. Some officers begin to suspect that Banks may be responsible, due to his history with Fitch. Meanwhile, a homicide detective named Fitch - who several years prior had ignored a backup call from Banks, resulting in him nearly getting killed - is abducted and placed in a trap where he must rip his fingers off to avoid electrocution in a filling water basin he also fails to escape and dies. Banks and Schenk investigate Boswick's death and Banks realizes this to be similar to the now deceased Jigsaw Killer. Ezekiel "Zeke" Banks a new partner, idealistic rookie William Schenk.

Attacked from behind by a figure wearing a pig mask, Boswick wakes to find himself suspended by his tongue in an active subway tunnel and is given a choice via recorded message: tear out his tongue and live, or remain until the next train arrives, killing him. Marv Boswick, chases a thief down a sewer drainage pipe. ![]() During a Fourth of July parade, an off-duty cop, Det. ![]() There is another story in the book, of a man named Paul. They find themselves searching for answers on Otherland, enlisting the help of some others who have also found out about the mysterious world, all seeking answers for what it is and why it’s harming kids. In parallel, a kid named Orlando is exposed to “Otherland” in a part of his online video game. Setting out to try to figure out what left him in the coma, she comes across a hint of a world called “Otherland,” a world within the VR world. One day she comes home to find her little brother, Steven, comatose after spending some time in the VR world. Main character Reny (a nickname for Irene) is a teacher of computer science/VR manipulation at a university. At least, the younger people seem to do this. Many people, instead of congregating/living in cities with malls and town centers and such, live good parts of their lives in the virtual world. ![]() In a future-world setting (the book was written in 1996), virtual reality (VR) in the form of using an avatar to explore the “net,” is fairly commonplace. There are 4 books in the Otherland series in total ( City of Golden Shadow, River of Blue Fire, Mountain of Black Glass, and Sea of Silver Light, the first two of which are available in audio so far). I say “at least” because I have only just started that book (and it’s 24.3 hours long!), and I have no idea if it resolves any of the story. The book ends with no plot lines resolved and more questions than answers…so, if you read this book, be prepared to read at least the next book in the series ( River of Blue Fire. There was only one downside to the book, which I may as well get out of the way now: it’s not a complete story. This is actually a cyberpunk book, a quite good one at that. I saw a fantastical-looking image on the cover and, knowing that Tad Williams typically writes fantasy novels/series, I just assumed it was a fantasy novel. I knew nothing about the book when I started listening, I hadn’t even read the blurb in the description. I hate to admit this, but I judged this book by the cover at first. And somehow, bit by bit, it is claiming the Earth’s most valuable resource – its children. The best minds of two generations have labored to build it. Incredible amounts of money have been lavished on it. Surrounded by secrecy, it is home to the wildest dreams and darkest nightmares. Themes: / cyberpunk / virtual reality / science fiction / I have nothing but high praise for the books I've read by him.By Tad Williams Narrated by George Newbern I can say with certainty that Tad Williams is consistently a superb writer, and a talented and gifted storyteller to the highest degree. But more than halfway through STONE OF FAREWELL I am totally loving it. I consider OTHERLAND amond my favorite SF series, along with Dan Simmons' HYPERION CANTOS and OSC's ENDER'S GAME books.Īlthough now that I'm going back to read his fantasy series, I can't be sure which is better until I'm finished. Your David and Goliath comparison is a good one, and I don't think the idea was lost on Williams either, especially since in the very first chapter (or couple of chapters) of the entire series, Paul Jonas finds himself in a Jack And The Beanstalk situation, which could be drawn as a metaphor for what the characters in the story are up against. It really is a uniquely imaginative and original story, expertly written and delievered in the size and scope of a fantasy epic, even though that's not what it is at all. I'm currently reading MS&T, but totally agree with you about OTHERLAND. I've re-read these books every year since I first purchased them and will continue to do so. This was a great story and for those who didn't make it to the last book, missed a good story. You know the classic David and Goliath story, but set in the virtual reality world. The reason for the story was to find Rene's brother and to help him and all the other children to recover from their coma's caused by cold hearted rich people and their quest for immortality. People seem to forget, there was no big fantasy epic to this story. Christabel or something like that) and I thought the story was well written.Īs to you (I, Brian) saying "Sure, it's very well written, and very imaginative - but somehow the entire story as I remember it is essentially irrelevant - no one really achieves anything" shows that you didn't really get past the details (which make a story by the way). I really liked the characters (especially !Xabbu and Orlando, I also liked the little girl, even though I can't remember her name. ![]() I thought Otherland was on of the more unique SF stories I have read and I have read a lot. I honestly don't know what everyone is talking about. ![]() Metal Gear Solid 4 isn't just an example of a game essentially locked to its original host system, it's also a title that stands to benefit immensely from the resources of more modern hardware to bring us closer to that original vision - the kind of thing that Microsoft has achieved with some of the preservation efforts of its compatibility team: higher frame-rates, higher resolution. So, bringing visuals of this calibre to the PlayStation 3 would be no small task. ![]() While I have no insight into Kojima Productions development situation, I have spoken with other developers that were involved with the early days of PS3 and all of them have suggested that the final hardware was a stepdown from what was promised. It was likely built on a powerful PC and even then, it may well have been pre-rendered given the perfect frame-rate. This trailer was produced prior to receiving actual PS3 development hardware. Watch on YouTube Metal Gear Solid 4 at 4K resolution, 60fps? We got it working via emulation, but it wasn't easy! The game did run unlocked, however, so there were sparing sections where 60fps was possible - a teaser of the game it was supposed to be. Flash back to the Tokyo Game Show in 2005 and we saw a game trailer running flat out at 60 frames per second - a far cry from the final release, that mostly operated in a 20-30fps window. It's a remarkable showcase of what could be, whether it is via local emulation on a PlayStation console, or via a Bluepoint-class remaster.Īt Digital Foundry, we always desire the highest possible frame-rates with new game releases but also understand this isn't always possible, but Metal Gear Solid 4 is an interesting case as it's a game that teased us with the possibility of 60 frames per second only to stomp on our dreams with its eventual release. The open source RPCS3 emulator allows PC users to access the PlayStation 3 library, and I've been playing Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots at 4K resolution at 60fps, with 16x anisotropic filtering. However, there is a route forward, albeit to a limited audience. Sony itself has a system in place to make them accessible at least - the streaming-based PlayStation Now - but what you're looking at are compromised versions of the original experience, marred with image quality and latency problems. There's a wealth of PlayStation 3 exclusive games that remain locked to the system - console-exclusive titles that sold millions of copies in their day that are no longer playable natively on modern systems. ![]() Our site gets updated on daily basis with addicting games so there is no excuse for getting board any more, so keep coming back this gaming community needs you.

Provided a large enough slot is available, these can be used to cast any spells you know, regardless of the school or which class you learned it from. This gives you access to a pool of spell slots up to 5th level. As a level 6 wizard, these spells can be from 1st to 3rd level.Īs a wizard 6 / AT 10, you are effectively a 9th level spell caster. Additionally, you can record spells from any school of magic in your spellbook, provided that they're of a level that you could cast as a wizard. When you take a level in Wizard, you can learn spells from any school of magic. As a level 10 Arcane Trickster you'll know 7 spells of 1st or 2nd level. Per the multiclassing rules (PHB p.164), you determine the spells you know and prepare for each class individually. These spells are not recorded in a spellbook. When you take a level in Rogue and get new spells, you can only choose spells from the Enchantment or Illusion schools (with exceptions at certain levels - see Thomas Markov's answer or PHB p.98 for the full text). The short answer is that you're still limited to illusion/enchantment spells when taking Rogue levels, but can copy any spell you can find (within level constraints) to your wizard spellbook. So your PC might cast only Eldritch Knight spells with all their slots or only Wizard spells with all their slots or some combination of both.

Eros was called "Protogonos" meaning "first-born" because he was the first of the immortals that could be conceived by man, and was thought of as the creator of all other beings and the first ruler of the universe. In some versions the Orphic Egg which contains Eros is created by Chronos, and it is Eros who bore Nyx as his daughter and took her as his consort. He mated in deep Tartarus with dark Chaos, winged like himself, and thus hatched forth our race, which was the first to see the light. Firstly, blackwinged Night laid a germless egg in the bosom of the infinite deeps of Erebus, and from this, after the revolution of long ages, sprang the graceful Eros with his glittering golden wings, swift as the whirlwinds of the tempest. Earth, the air and heaven had no existence. 400 BC), influenced by Orphism, relates the birth of Eros:Īt the beginning there was only Chaos, Night, dark Erebus, and deep Tartarus. The Orphic and Eleusinian Mysteries featured Eros as a very original god, but not quite primordial, since he was the child of Night ( Nyx). 400 BC), one of the pre-Socratic philosophers, makes Eros the first of all the gods to come into existence. 700 BC), one of the most ancient of all Greek sources, Eros (the god of love) was the fourth god to come into existence, coming after Chaos, Gaia (the Earth), and Tartarus (the abyss). ![]() Mythology Primordial god Īccording to Hesiod's Theogony (c. In modern astronomy, the asteroid 433 Eros, takes its name from him. He had the epithet Klêidouchos (Κλειδοῦχος), meaning holding/bearing the keys, because he was holding the key to hearts. The Thespians celebrated the Erotidia ( Ancient Greek: Ἐρωτίδεια) meaning festivals of Eros. Eros is also part of a triad of gods that played roles in homoerotic relationships, along with Heracles and Hermes, who bestowed qualities of beauty (and loyalty), strength, and eloquence, respectively, onto male lovers. Įros was one of the Erotes, along with other figures such as Himeros and Pothos, who are sometimes considered patrons of homosexual love between males. In Athens, he shared a very popular cult with Aphrodite, and the fourth day of every month was sacred to him (also shared by Herakles, Hermes and Aphrodite). However, in late antiquity, Eros was worshiped by a fertility cult in Thespiae. Ī cult of Eros existed in pre-classical Greece, but it was much less important than that of Aphrodite. Ultimately, in the later satirical poets, he is represented as a blindfolded child, the precursor to the chubby Renaissance Cupid, whereas in early Greek poetry and art, Eros was depicted as a young adult male who embodies sexual power, and a profound artist. In later sources, however, Eros is represented as the son of Aphrodite, whose mischievous interventions in the affairs of gods and mortals cause bonds of love to form, often illicitly. In the earliest sources (the cosmogonies, the earliest philosophers, and texts referring to the mystery religions), he is one of the primordial gods involved in the coming into being of the cosmos. Cult and depiction Įros appears in ancient Greek sources under several different guises. The Greek ἔρως, meaning 'desire', comes from ἔραμαι 'to desire, love', of uncertain etymology. This iteration Eros/Cupid became a major icon and symbol of Valentine's Day. His iconography and role influenced the depiction of Cupid, in addition to Christian tradition. His role in myths is mostly complementary he often appears in the presence of Aphrodite and the other love gods and often acts as a catalyst for people to fall in love, but has little unique mythology of his own the most major exception to that being the myth of Eros and Psyche, the story of how he met and fell in love with his wife.Įros, or rather his Roman equivalent Cupid, remained popular during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. ![]() In both cases, he is winged and carries his signature bow and arrows, which he uses to make both mortals and immortal gods fall in love, usually under the guidance of Aphrodite. He is usually presented as a handsome young man, though in some appearances he is a juvenile boy full of mischief, ever in the company of his mother. In the earliest account, he is a primordial god, while in later accounts he is described as one of the children of Aphrodite and Ares and, with some of his siblings, was one of the Erotes, a group of winged love gods. His Roman counterpart was Cupid ("desire"). In Greek mythology, Eros ( UK: / ˈ ɪər ɒ s, ˈ ɛr ɒ s/, US: / ˈ ɛr ɒ s, ˈ ɛr oʊ s/ Ancient Greek: Ἔρως, romanized: Érōs, lit.'Love, Desire') is the Greek god of love and sex. ![]() By default, Dropbox puts it’s own storage folder here, so it’s not unusual: /Macintosh HD/Users/Peter/DevonThinkDB/ DevonThink Setup Given this warning, create the local storage folder (e.g.: DevonThinkDB) in the root of your user folder, alongside the Desktop, Documents, Movies, Pictures and Shared folders. ![]()
