Blog statistics and bachelor exam passed with distinction

I was reviewing blog statistics today and the most viewed blog post by far apparently is the one about me getting my bachelor's degree in informatics passed with distinction. That's the highest grade one can get in Sweden, at least during my studies. Since then I went on to get a second bachelor in Business Law, also with distinction. Also got a Master's degree, though fell short of the highest grade there.

Not sure why that post has attracted so much attention.

My first bachelor paper was on IT projects and their success factors and my second one was on a paragraph in the personal information law which covers when companies are free to target you for unsolicitated ads. I wanted it to tie in with IT and it did since much of advertisement is online these days.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance

After beating God of War, I have logged 100+ hours into Kingdom Come this summer during vacation. It has a high learning curve in fighting and lockpicking, but it is pretty addictive and fun to play.

There are a few memorable moments, when the main character Henry is drinking, and I'm a sucker for humor in games.

Fallout 2 and Bloodlines are good examples of games with humor. I am curious on how much humor there will be in the upcoming Bloodlines 2, but considering Chris Avellone is involved it has some potential in that regard.

God of War

Played the final stage of God of War today. I had paused it for a while since I simply didn't want the story to end. Great game. Now I am really looking forward to the sequel(s)..

I don't have as much time to play games anymore, except for mobile games such as Clash of Clans that you can pick up and play for a couple of minutes. But God of War really got me hooked.

So if you havn't played it, I recommend you to.

Star Wars 9 - The rise of Skywalker

I used to watch the original trilogy pretty much every weekend for a while in my teens. On VHS casette. And I was a part of an online fan club called the Emperor's Hammer. I loved the game Tie Fighter. So I was a die hard fan. Sadly, my love has waned over the years with first the prequels and I guess it just didn't quite feel the same with the one ones.

They were pretty good, but they didn't quite stick with me as the first ones.

A familiar evil laugh does however stir hope in and oldened hard that something will stick.
