The Gamer's Sequent Quest

Welcome to The Gamer's Sequent, my own little place to talk about video games, gaming, and why I like video games. But what does "sequent" have to do with this? A good question.

In proof theory, a sequent is a formalized statement of a step of a proof. In this area of mathematics, a sequent typically consists of two lists of formulas, one representing the premises and one the conclusions.

And so it will go with The Gamer's Sequent. Only applied to video games. In a weird kind of way. Almost.

Well... sorta... kind of a polymorphic way...

Ok, in reality I just liked the name, it sounded cool. So live with it.

And so then my quest is to write about the video games I love to play, love to hate, and anything else that comes to mind. Many of the posts may dwell on the nuances of game play in the particular games I spend a lot of time playing.

But what if nobody cares? May they spend the rest of their character's lives with rez sickness.
