Oh, and keep your phone around for Borges for looking shit up. Some of the references add context, others are pretty much just window dressing.

Unfortunately, the most popular translation of his collected works sticks with Borges' use of words that appear very infrequently in Spanish. So instead of curses/invective/swears, you get imprecations, etc. I got a perfect score on the verbal GRE without studying and still found a bunch of words I didn't know. It's kind of frustrating. It captures his style and I get he uses rare words for a reason stylistically, language being a labyrinth and all, but at times it is pretty tiresome and helps just to have a quick look up.

Most references are gloss but for Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius, my favorite, it's worth skimming a summary of Berkeley, Hume, and Kant vis-a-vis the noumenal, if you're not familiar.

Now, anyone got something like the original Diablo? Already read The Darkness That Comes Before and Beserk.

Forgot my pic of the cook titty witches that try to lure you into huge packs of monsters, running away whenever you get close.

Shit, modern arpgs don't even have this level of tactics from 1996. Shit just blobs on the screen instead of trying to flank you.
