Darkfall Psychoanalytics

by Scott Jennings on February 27, 2009

Protip: if you are amused by the long dark nightmare that is the Darkfall community’s soul, it’s probably because you were a whiny baby in UO. (By the way, Syncaine, playing UO in the Good Old Days wasn’t exactly rocket science.)

Remember: Darkfall – STRICTLY FOR THE HARDCORE. To remind you of this, we leave you with some out of context quotes from Darkfall’s Community Manager, who, given the launch and the general nature of Darkfall’s community, is probably drinking heavily RIGHT NOW.

<@Brannoc> I’d be happy to tell you to go fuck yourselves! But a lot of people say that’s bad PR
<@Brannoc> so…I’m trying not to

Mudkipslolwu: Brannoc can i get you to comment on the nude photos that have recently surfaced including both you and tasos?
<@Brannoc> my penis is bigger, Mudkipslolwu

“”It is a tremendous analogical failure to say people need to think of FFA PVP MMOs more like chess. Yikes.”"

Not in all respects, but in some? Sure. Their attachment to their loot which they might lose/gain on any given day should be about like a Chess-player’s attachment to his pieces.

@Hyu
If you’re not trying to convince people, what are you doing? There are fundamentally only three reasons to argue anything: to convince someone (not necessarily the person you’re arguing against), to better understand the issues at hand, or because you love the sound of your own voice. Your tone of argument basically precludes the second option and you yourself disclaim the first, so what does that leave?
