*puffs smoke ring* Good try, laddie.

By the way I think it's of the upmost importance that we all get classy pipe smoker avatars.

*moves pipe from left side of mouth to right, puffs* Interesting.

A lot of the writing in the Fallout games was pretty terrible.

puff, puff My word! I seem to be developing throat cancer! puff, puff Qui--COUGH--ite.

puff, puff Quite.

Puff, puff...quite.

You're British! Go to the Dunhill store and get a briar pipe. Or get a Charatan or something. Then walk around with it in your mouth and anytime someone says something (which 90% of the time will be about the weather) puff on it and say "Quite."

Sweet muppetty doodah! That woman's totally ape****! The sad thing is the kid may well grow up emotionally and morally retarded toward women like she fears, not because of some porno he looked up, but because his mother's rants turned him wierd. Also... "When he wants to jerk off, everything goes right out the window." I hope nobody walks by when that's happening.

There is a hell of a lot of work to writing a good RPG. Not only does the backstory need to be good, but so do these massive pages upon pages of character dialogue. Every character needs a detailed history and personality. And then there's these endless, hundreds and hundreds of sidequests. Sidequests totally unrelated to the main plot typically make up the majority of American RPGs. Each one needs its own engaging to story and characters to hold the player's interest. If they're just generic quests that don't give the player a reason to want to finish them besides a generic reward of exp or money, the game will not be good no matter how deep the overall story is. The sidequests become to repetitive, and the player gets bored. The best example I can think of is Planescape Torment again. Every sidequest felt important somehow. Each was unique, and had a unique and engaging subplot to go with it. One quest actually involved you simply walking from one end of a small area to the other and back again to deliver a message between two people. Somehow it was still interesting, and though there were ten or twenty quests almost exactly like this, they each felt unique. That's my idea of good writing in an RPG.

WoW players are kind of like that donkey that keeps chasing after the carrot on the stick. You just keep chasing after the prize, never to get it, while Blizzard rides you all the way to the bank.

What if they were furry aliens?

Well it's not really like other gaming sites are filled with homophobic propaganda...

What exactly is the difference between gay gaming and regular gaming?

In my opinion, MMORPGs like WoW are to computer gaming what reality based programing is to television and Harry Potter is to English literature. I wish they'd all just die.

I got stuck behind a gay pride parade on the way to the hospital in the middle of the night once. They were seriously blocking off one of the only ways into the emergency room. I'd ironically never had any problem with gays right until then.

This is the Least Powerful Thread Ever Made.

WoW sucks balls.

So should we expect another one of these in December, when it's the 70th anniversery of the Nanjing massacre? How about on the anniversery of every significant loss of life due to war in history? Or are you just going to mourn the ones that involved America? I mean if you're going to highlight every tragic loss of human life in history, that's all fine if the mods will allow you to waste that much forum space. If you're only going to make thread after thread about the examples you gave in a thread called "Why everyone hates America" like they're the only bad things that have ever happened, you're just an idiot.

Your wife.

What the hell?

Yeah, I'm thinking about it I thought about one of those once. I even checked out the Vintage Speedsters factory in California and was planning to cut the top off my uncle's Beetle so I'd have a chassis to build it on. I eventually decided to just get the real thing.

A better question would be why anyone in their right mind would buy and read a novel based on WoW lore.
