    What's your game?

    The Commander Keen series. I found them on steam a while ago. Man I was happy. They're still as good as they were 15 years ago. (That's mostly nostalgia speaking, but still.)

    Are you buying Star Wars the Old Republic?

    No. No no no no no no. No. I've seen what kind of games BioWare produces lately, and I find it all over-hyped, mediocre, boring tripe. The only BioWare product I can appreciate is this cup...

    Who is your favourite video game character?

    Easy, it's Ganondorf [http://www.zeldawiki.org/Ganondorf]. Over the course of the series, he fought a kingdom that pushed his people into a barren wasteland after a war, and controlled said kingdom at least four times. He knows and that to gain power one must focus on many aspects of it (he's...

    Your most hated RPG status effect

    Primarily effects like silence (in most games). Poison, stun and confusion are annoying, but I can still forgive them for being indiscriminate. Silence, however, usually only affects magic users. Why the balls is that? Why doesn't it affect any sound-based ability, like a warrior's shouts in a...

    Anyone ever hear of Sequelitis (video series)?

    Good work always deserves more attention. Yeah, although I'm not the biggest fan of Egoraptor's other work, I really like this Sequelitis thing. It's both well-reasoned and passionate. I'd like to see more of it though, to hell with Awesome Series. (I'm kidding, just my personal preference.)

    What are you thoughts about Vegetarianism and why do you feel that way?

    You know what annoys me? The vegetarians I know (of the "eating animals is immoral!"-variety) all live in the city and have never been to a farm or seen a cow in their entire life. They just gobble down whatever nonsense those damn animal rights terrorists feed them like cattle... Wait, that...

    Yes I smoke.. So I'm the devil now?

    I don't smoke myself (and I don't mean that in the way where I wrap myself in paper, light my hair on fire and suck on my feet), but to be honest, I kinda like the smell of cigars and pipes. They smell so... homely. Which is odd, since neither of my parents smoke. Cigarettes smell like rubbish...

    Poll: Do you think I stand a chance?

    First of all, I'd like to applaud you, OP. I haven't posted here in ages, but thanks to your thread I feel invigorated to post here again. I'd give you a cake, but I'm sure it's gone stale by now. On topic though: You know what I'd do with school uniforms? Enforce the hell out of 'em. "But...

    About Final Fantasy

    I'll be honest. The last (main series) Final Fantasy was FFX. Why? XI should've just been called "Final Fantasy Online" or something, it just doesn't fit in. XII was essentially "Final Fantasy Tactics 3: Return of the Twatty Kingdom". XIII would be better if they cut out the gameplay and made it...

    If you could shape shift!

    Heh, would be cool to be a silicate (or somewhat made of stone) dragon the size of a small country. Like France. Imagine that, merely taking a dive close to a shore of some ocean could flood a small port town. I'd probably go on and create small kingdom, and just rule people like a god. And...

    Accepting Your Flaws

    Let's see, where should I start... I swear like a heathen. Seriously, it surprises me I haven't opened some sort of gateway to hell with my swearing. I tend to be rather manipulative. I hardly ever do anything particularly bad or stupid myself, I just get others to do it for my amusement. I...

    Poll: Your opinions on Catacylsm.

    Yeah, I can say I'm pretty excited. Particularly the guild advancement system, and the way water is gonna look is QUITE an improvement. Also, anyone knows what will happen to the Barrens chat? I don't know whether I should expect it to be doubled or halved...

    History.

    Alaric I. Why? He was the first Germanic leader to ransack friggin' Rome. How cool can you get? "Hey there silly people in bedsheets, I'm gonna plunder yer town!" Heh, I would've loved to see the look on Honorius' face when he saw tons of Visigoths running through the streets...

    How would / do you fight?

    Raining down fireballs or meteors, and picking off any survivors with an pistol and a rapier. Because rapier = sexy. And for those who don't know, rapiers =/= those nancy aluminium swords used in modern fencing, like foils and epees. those are silly. Real men use rapiers. Or claymores. I'd...

    What was your first MMO?

    R.O.S.E. Online. The public beta, that is. Becaus a friend played it, and it was free. It was grindy, it was monotonous, it was samy, but it was fun in it's own horrible way. Still got it's music secreted away somewhere on my hard-disk. Man, did that game drag me down the mmorpg-hellhole...
