I was reading something yesterday, not dissimilar, that moment of realisation that one may have standing upon a mountain precipice, that nothing holds one back from jumping. Its not the fear of pain or death, but the realisation of having pure freedom, to be ultimately responsible for ones own life and actions. That moment of realisation that's its just us as an individual facing the vastness of the cosmos.

So a serious question: How serious is this threads title? A fair bit of tounge in cheek, or straight up?
Cause I read the title then check your responses and it seems you were just bored and wanted to pick a few fights for the night when starting this thread, rather than having anything noteworthy to say about Divinity.
