Let’s make this clear: I’d play all of these.

I’m not a big fan of over-philosophising – not to be confused with general Philosophy, which I respect a lot – and my general outlook on life usually begins with the question “how is this practical”. Which is probably the reason I tend to defer to TV Tropes as a source of useful definitions, so in case you don’t know the concept: “Deconstruction means to take apart a trope so as to better understand its meaning and relevance to us”. Later on there’s some Reconstruction, which is an equally important part of the creative cycle. Meaning is relative, yes, but that’s a glorious thing, since that means it serves us, not the other way around.

 

A friendly reminder: Twice a week I upload a new part in Nord’s journey of destruction throughout Skyrim.
