Things that set you apart from the Escapist stereotype

[Tanner The Monotone]

I'm not an atheist
I like halo
I like Call of duty
I'm not liberal
I admit that alot of the people here are stereotypical in some ways (me being one of them)
I liked Bush jr. (Term 1 and first half of second)
I don't like very many pc games (valve games excluded)
I like Heavy Metal
I agree with the war that America is in, just not the way we are conducting it.

I'm saying I like this website, I just have to go somewhere else if I want to get a conservitive view on things.If you have any websites in mind, please send me a message.

I'm not a misanthrope.
I think JRPGs are the shit.
I love my Wii. (Ewwwww!)

THERE'S AN ESCAPIST STEREOTYPE!
....REALLY!
I have no idea what that is, sadly enough.
But really is there a stereotype for everything?

Apparently, we are elitist jerks.

I'm not elitist.

Um, I'm 43, and I see nothing wrong with gaming. In fact, I love gaming.

Interesting to see what others think of us, sadily its somewhat true...

I'm just going to go ahead and say everything, because I'm absolutely fucking unique.

I think inflated self image is part of the stereotype...


And LOL to everyone who hasn't been aware the escapists reputation until now.

The thread was old. Do you have any idea how much it's hard to find criticism on the Escapist?

Note* I was hoping that someone would've seen the kinda-subtle joke in my first post.

Yuh, that was what I meant. Sometimes this site just makes me wanna purge.

I'll be sure to grab you a chaser to wash the taste out of your mouth after you're done.

Subtle Joke..?

 

[Rensenhito]

I like Halo, WoW... Lots of things the "average Escapist" doesn't.
Also I have a girlfriend.
BURN!!

Well, I have a girlfriend, friends, am not fat and have good grades. BUUURN!!!
No, seriously, stereotypes are stupid and my comment above is a joke and nothing more.

No-one realised we had a stereotype?

It's pretty much elitism & egotism. Insufferable elitism & egotism.

This however is quite true. And I love it! I fit in here...

I play games for the gameplay, not the story. Although this is the 7th page so no one is going to see this post.

Also I like the mods.
Edit: I also have never played a Bioware game, the frequent references to Valve is making me hate them more every day, I play Guild Wars, I don't watch anime, I'm not anti-religion, I hate grammar nazis, and I'm not anti-mainstream (why do you people hate Justin Beiber, Facebook/casual games, Twilight, and Jersey Shore so much?).

HA, I read it. I have thus proved you wrong and now feel superior to you. I'm very elitist

I also agree with you about the gameplay vs story thing. I've beaten halo reach and MW2 three times each, and couldn't tell you what either story was in those games.

I didn't even know that there was an Escapist stereotype. I guess there would be, but I have no idea what it involves.

I just like what I like?
