How RPGs influence people. Options

[Eldar]

Last night i was a bit drunk i got all philosophic about games, specially how rpgs affect us, i mean are we like other people ? we always have a dragon, an elf, swords and magic in our mind, others dont.

Do you people think rpgs make us more creative ? more violent ? less social ?..... you get the idea.

Peronally i think they make us much more creative than the average folk.

Heh, 'Guild Wars' has free online play. [/quote]

But there's still those jerks/pervs/etc. still to deal with... I don't trust that whole 'free online' thing. There's got to be a catch. :shocked:

[quote]And it can be played offline too. :goodjob:[/quote]

You serious? But--but I thought it said on the box that internet/online stuff was required. [/quote]

From what i've read of the manual, i believe that theres offline play. Haven't played yet though, gotta switch out my current crap-tastic computer for a better one, installl it there today. Once i figure that out, i'll inform you.

And as for the jerks/pervs/etc. well, some people are good, some are bad. Just got to learn to avoid the bad ones.

Star Wars Galaxies had this awesome way to deal with them. Throw 'em on 'your 'Ignore list' and none of what they say/emote is hear-able by you. As if suddenly they were muted.

Great way to deal with spammers too. [/quote]

If only it was worthwile to do that on Halo 2... those jerks are the only reason I even got into Morrowind, wait is that a good thing or a bad thing?
