Flaw in your argument is in bold. Your player character cannot think. He's a series of zeros and ones being processed and assembled into a visible set of images by mankind's greatest and most abused invention: the microprocessor. His screams of pain, anguish, and frustration are prerecorded by voice actors, sometimes years in advance of when the game is actually played. He doesn't get happy; he doesn't get sad; he just runs program!Fniff said:The god is you. The poor soldier is your player character. You are doing this to him. What kind of thing would do that? Do this to a person who can think? Every gamer who played online has done this. Stop doing it, because it is wrong.

Looking back, I misworded that, meant to say "And if he wasn't." As in, if he wasn't ignorant to us.Loop Stricken said:That's what I'm saying.Angelo Credo said:And if he was, I highly doubt he'd give a shit either.Loop Stricken said:The thing about Cthulhu is he's entirely ignorant to humanity.
And yet you wont bow down to him.IdealistCommi said:But Cthulthu is FUCKING AWESOME!
But Cthulthu is FUCKING AWESOME.Which makes him more awesome then you.Therefor,you should bow down to him.IdealistCommi said:Oh HELL no. I do not bow down to anyone. 'Cept myself. 'Cause I am awesome
Only because you spend your time hunting down poor defenceless skiers. Face it, you're just as bad, killing people or the crime of skiing for too long ;0Arcticflame said:The problem here is, I don't die very often![]()
No, I'm not Cthulhu, but our kids go to the same magnet school...Fniff said:...
You, are videogame Cthulthu.

Yes he is. If I where tortured or killed by Cthulhu I would be like "I'm dying for a good cause: To amuse Cthulhu, god of awesomeness"Fniff said:Not to the guys that are being tortured by him.IdealistCommi said:But Cthulthu is FUCKING AWESOME!
I have to agree with this. And your avatar is awesome.RAND00M said:OT:You just made online shooters so much more fun.Knowing that the player character is going through such hell makes it better
Hurray, person who doesn't get the humor of this thread. Or does get it, but decides to be a boring nitpicker and rain on everyone's parade. And the rain is made of acid. And the parade too. It's... the acid-world!imp_spittle said:Flaw in your argument is in bold. Your player character cannot think.

In other words, and as stated by others here, he isn't real. None of it is real. It's all a bunch of pixels flying around a TV screen.
And you see the connection to Quentin Tarantino and Cthulhu where?Fniff said:No...Fat Man Spoon said:Did you forget your medication again?Fniff said:Any questions?
I just watched Inglourious Basterds though.
While you're rant was pretty entertaining, stop taking Cthuthlu's name in vain!Fniff said:You know respawning? That thing you do when you die in games? Picture the scene. You are in Stalingrad. You are advancing on the germans when you get shot in the head. You fall over, and make peace with your gods. Then, some sort of god says "Goddammit!" and you suddenly appear at the exact same place you were two minutes ago. The same fate happens,again,and again,for the rest of your life. This isn't some kind of horror story. This happens in any WW2 online game with Stalingrad in it. The god is you. The poor soldier is your player character. You are doing this to him. What kind of thing would do that? Do this to a person who can think? Every gamer who played online has done this. Stop doing it, because it is wrong. They didn't do any thing to you. They didn't kill your mother and rape you. You, are videogame Cthulthu. You, are a god who plays with creatures who are only just lower then you. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?!? Imagine that happening to you! Once your character dies,leave. Just leave. Also,if you spawn camp, You are basically worse then anyone. You kill characters just when they are BORN.
Dear god, we all are cthuthlu aren't we?
Any questions?
