IF YOU'RE TIRED OF HOUSE CATS YOU SHOULD PET A WILD LION!

Humans are weird: MMO’s

Alien: What do these letters mean? Human: “Massively Multiplayer Online Game” Alien: Shouldn’t there be a “G” in there as well then? Human: Then it would be “MMOG”, and that sounds silly when said out loud. Alien: *Looks sad* Human: Oh Christ your name is Mmog, isn’t it? ---------------------------

Alien: So this game is about the star wars religious fanatics fighting each other? Human: Pretty much. Alien: You would think the rest of the galaxy would have united and wiped them all out by now since it looks like the majority of conflicts are started by one side or the other. Human: Pretty hard to stamp them out when they can crush your windpipe from half a star system away. ----------------------------

Alien: So evil triangles fighting good spheres? Human: Pretty much. Alien: That doesn’t sound exciting. Human: It was before they put up a paywall around everything believe it or not. Alien: How so? Human: Well for one thing you got to punch an ancient worm god the size of a skyscraper in the face on Mars. Alien: Wow, that does sound like fun. -------------------------------

Alien: Friend human, I wish to start a fight but I don’t know hard. Human: Oh that’s easy. Human: Walk into any of those blue cities and shout in chat “Sylvanas did nothing wrong!”. Alien: Thanks. *An hour passes* Human: How’s it going? Alien: I’m not sure how but I may have started an in-game race war. Human: Ah; classic indeed. ---------------------------------

Alien: So this one is about flying around the universe and raiding people? Human: Yup. Alien: Isn’t that what we do now though? Human: Well when it came out it was depicting the future so it was more exciting. Alien: I’ll say. Alien: For being supposedly dangerous I’ve seen waiting lines at amusement parks on Florp III that were more harrowing. Human: They never did find that little girl waiting for the teacup ride. -------------------

Alien: Why are there fire pits everywhere?!?! Alien: There are not enough players to need so many. Human: you just don’t understand. Alien: Understand what? Human: You always need to leave a trail of fire pits behind you as you go in this game. Alien: Why? Human: *Points behind alien character to see angry band of players dodging way through fire pits trying to attack them* ---------------------

Alien: I don’t like this one. Human: Really? Human: You loved the two previous entries. Alien: Those were both offline games and this one isn’t. Alien: Plus it has a really annoying feature I hate. Human: Which is? Alien: Having to interact with other players to complete missions. -------------------

Human: They called this one a wow killer. Alien: How’d this get a name like that? Human: Well for starters they invested in decent writers. ------------------

Human: I heard that one is rather good. Alien: I guess. Human: You sound disappointed. Alien: Well I’ve yet to come across this black desert the title speaks of and I’m starting to get upset. -------------------

Alien: All I wanted to do was mine asteroids!!! Human: Yeah, but you did it in their territory. Alien: This is government controlled systems! Alien: Nothing is player controlled!!! Human: Probably explains why they are swarming you with cheap ships. Alien: Why!?!? Human: They’re probably hoping they can take you out before concord floods the system and wipes them all out. Alien: That’s crazy! Alien: They’d waste dozens of ships just to take out my lone miner? Human: Let me tell you about a little group called “Goonswarm”. ----------------------------

Alien: So everything is player created in this world? Human: For the economy at least.  Alien: That would explain a few things. Human: Like why there is super inflation for a bundle of wood? Alien: More so why every sword for sale is called a variation of “Buttsmasher”

I have to share this insane ship comparison chart this guy posted on deviant art (full res link btw)

Been zooming in and out staring at all these ships for hours lol

Biggest thing on this chart is the ship from independence day, which did fuck with the Moon's gravity, so I guess that checks out.

All the star fleet ships are a joke compared to the star wars ships

Every ship in the entirety of star trek is laughably smaller than the moon, meanwhile every warhammer ship is just on some unfathomable scale and probably has its own moons orbiting.

Ships from doctor who are all so small, they're barely noticeable.

The wallmart ship from WALL.E is weirdly massive, but i guess they were big enough to fit entire metropolitan cities.

Wish I had a poster of this

[vexwerewolf]

Still genuinely astounded by the lengths CCP's writing team had to go to when they tried to bothsides-morally-grey the Minmatar, a multiethnic tribal society that suffered a millennium of genocide and chatel slavery at the hands of the Amarr, an empire of religious fascists

At this point we're shifting from video essays to indie documentary format, and as an anthropologist in training, I couldn't be happier about it. Regale me with several hours of detailed accounts of unhinged information about a community I want nothing to do with, dulcet voiced YouTube man

To YOU Eve online may be a complex game that real economists use for studies. To me it’s a silly mining game where I take my ship to look at asteroids

Coming soon: examples of EVE propaganda; and an aside looking into a particularly bizarre in-game entity that basically want high-sec miners to be their BDSM subs.

Alas that you never wrote the second thing. (AFAICT) That sounds hilarious. Do you still remember it?

oh yes!

so, uh.

basically they were just griefers running a protection pay us to not kill you racket, but they were really weird in how they talked about it. there's a point at which the bully's demands that you grovel in the dirt and kiss his shoes become way too specific and one starts to think uhh just take my lunch money and go man ur making it weird
