It's easy to bs somebody who knows noting though. Still amazed that you got that off of wikipedia.Mr_Vorhias said:Funny Thing: I actually failed miserably when I took Psychiatry. The only thing I was cribbing from to come up with all these mental disorders is the Wikipedia entry on "List Of Mental Disorders."sheic99 said:
Thanks, all! I'm glad so many people like this.
That was really entertaining. But the narrator seems to be a highly inexperienced psychiatrist. You'd need someone who's dealt with war veterans to begin to understand the sniper and the other murderin bastards. (And not be afraid of them.) Not that I'm complaining, you've put more effort into it than I'm putting into this criticism. Just asking if you'd mind if I take this concept and see what I can do with it? I think it's a good idea with a lot of potential.
Well what did you have in mind?Jenny Creed said:That was really entertaining. But the narrator seems to be a highly inexperienced psychiatrist.

You just haven't acclimatized to this atmosphere.Dancingman said:
Brilliant job mate, loved it through and through actually giving them personalities. Out of all of them, I'm not sure which one it would be since I'm more disturbed than the engineer, but not as deluded as the soldier... difficult.
I laughed, for the most part it was good but when the illnesses ecchoed and from what I know about psychology didn't quite fit with your logic for giving them. Not once was sociopath mentioned even though it fit better.
Anyway, nitpicking aside good job! It was original and funny

Never mind, what I'm writing is turning out to be some sort of fanfiction with a rather different scope. Get back to me in a few weeks if you're really interested. ^_^Mr_Vorhias said:Well what did you have in mind?Jenny Creed said:That was really entertaining.

Interesting concept. I didn't think it was very funny myself, but that's just what I thought. You must have spent a long time on this, but I think you could have done a better job.
Funny as hell, incredibly entertaining to read, fit the personalities of the characters very well, and a very funny (if not, kinda morbid) ending.
This is awesome mate. Keep em coming!

Very entertaining! I'm an avid TF2 player, and I loved the personalities. You could have also brought up how much Spy loves watching Engineers squirm when he saps their sentries.
I'm going to look at the Medic MUCH differently now. His name must be Klaus Frankenstein.

Seconded, TF2 really is a great game, one wich doesn't take itself so seriously ;-) I still need to buy it though.sgtshock said:

Nah. I didn't like Gears of War, so I could only write negative stuff about it. I'm sure you could get that from much more interesting sources than I.josh797 said:
Besides. (IMO) The characters don't really have any sort of personality to them. Not like the TF2 cast anyway. (But I'm getting off-topic.)
I have a few ideas circulating in my head since posting this though, so I'll probably post something like this again. I doubt I'll be able to make something as funny as the TF2 one, though.
idk if you are as good a writer as it seems, and this thread wasnt a fluke then i think you might want to see if you could get a column with the escapist. i mean there are lots of game characters out there and a lot of them have some pretty disturbed mental states.. i think it could be fun.Mr_Vorhias said:
