Are you literally just taking a location in-game and travel agent-izing it? Honestly, just describing what I played through? As a travel agent?! I'm sorry, but this is stupid. Apologies, but I had to say it. Downvote away!

Damn, there go 100 hours I already don't have.

Adding to minecraft instead of a sequel? Thank you :)

Yeah its spelled "orgies." I mean...

Well first of all, that's not really the initial point of my post. I can let that slide.

The part I can't led slide though is what you think I'm saying. You really don't understand it, do you? Let me rephrase. The article's premise is made of a series of points. The article's premise is flawed because several of the points it makes are flawed. I listed one which is not the entire premise but is crucial to the entire premise. I pointed this one out specifically as an example and I singled it out as an element that is part of the whole. I singled it out precisely because it doesn't work for the end of the whole.

In short, it is entirely possible to find fault with that one statement *and* the rest of the article.

Like I said before, I could go through point by point why the premise doesn't work, but I figured I would look at one of several parts that need to be fixed.

Is that clear enough now?

Actually better yet, why don't you reconcile my out-of-context error? I'd love to hear your take on it.

Are you sure I haven't? I'm saying the premise is flawed, if that helps. The example I noted was the most egregious *within* the context; I find it bad form to copy and paste the entire article.

And if you start with a bad premise, I'm sure you can figure out what sort of conclusions you end up with. ;)

"It is playing a role through a video game, which is of course directly related to being a role-playing game."

We like to call this a narrative, something that's not exclusive to an RPG.

Ah, a pseudo-intellectual piece which reveals a deeply flawed understanding of theme, genre, and story (as several others have pointed out). It would have been more honest if you just said you want games that are weird.

Please be true. I dont even give much credit to the "it's harder to know what you're really spending so points are good" argument. Mental conversion rates are easy. This was just a hassle.
