Reg was right, ledge campers DO suck. stare
Smack them with everything you have so they get the hell away from the ledge. xd

Nice win by the way. xd


Thank you.

I humbly apologize if my rants are a bit much.

I've just never felt this frustration before.

Unfortunately, reading a book and playing a game feel very different, and both have aspects you can only exploit with that medium. I don't know how Lolita could be turned into a movie; one of the themes of the book is the power of language and wording. You have an unreliable narrator who is clever enough to say things in a way that doesn't come across as horribly repulsive, despite the book being about a *****. On the same note, the final battle (and the ending, for that matter) in EarthBound wouldn't have worked as a book without some sort of drastic rewrite.

There are definitely cases where a game/book/movie/etc would have been better suited to another medium, but saying all RPG fans should just read books is an overly simple solution.

Of course, I'm a bit of an elitist bibliophile and will sometimes even have problems with a movie adaptation of a book.
This is a good point. :O

I'm just saying that if you're playing games solely for storylines, you're barking up the wrong tree.

A lot of people voted the third poll option without getting the joke.

We just hate gays that much.

They wish they knew.

Something about you makes me want to pass a load.

well unfortunatly the gamer demographic as a whole isnt interested only in gameplay when it comes to RPG's they also want an acceptable storyline to go along with it and to provide some kind of depth.

and i do read books. lol
The gamer demographic should just go read books, and leave the high end technology to high end gaming.

Way too much thought went into that. Due to that, you're wrong regardless.
No no no. You meant to say "Wall o' text lol"
Or even "tldr"

..... no comment
THAT IS RIGHT
No, but seriously, say whatever you want. I'm sure I've heard worse.

but thats just it, we have hit a point where i agree with you and so i am choosing to shut up so i can go back to playing the pearl version i rented to get a palkia for my legendary collection.
Wait, really?
I thought you were saying no comment because I said something really stupid.

And lol. You're playing an RPG with a bad storyline.
yes, yet again team bad guy wants to control a legendary pokemon to rule the world. but ive been addicted to this game since day one and i just cant change that no matter how hard i try crying

No problem. I can understand how hard dealing with a complete loss is.

If you don't like it, get better. I know you've got it in you.

Damn that Marth. That's all I'll say. Just Waiting for ME.
Who were you playing as?

It sucks when you're DK. You have to come in basically from above, because his recovery is mostly horizontal, and he's ******** gigantic.


Then I also play as Olimar, so fags just hang on the edge and I'm like "SHIIIIIIIIT"

Trenn Flashkill
It has a storyline?
"get dem badgers"
