    That's one psychotic fucker !

    Launching planet buster. Target, Uranus.

    @Ice_man: In soviet russia you is given to the chocolate !

    @Sobersean: aka Doctor Aquafresh: Sorry, religion has been replaced by mercantilism in the civics tree in the 2000 patch, there were the 3 days of revolution and all that.

    @Nashianei: Yeah i know, i was agreeing with you in a way that i could vocalize how annoying the gameplay is.

    @adamhunterpeck: No wait it gets better ! The end game is based on spreadsheet computations for your various 1% critical rating items and whatnot while spamming the exact same sequence of buttons at the exact same timings for hours ! FUN !

    Friends hyped the game to hell and back and beckoned to play it. I kept refusing for awhile then they decided to buy the game, the extensions and pay a couple of months of subscription as a gift to me. So i couldn't be an ass and i started playing.

    @RedAntisocial: I don`t think it's just the trials. My experience was different but almost the same result as the article says.

    @sunpop: Having to walk/fly around 70% of the time spent in the game is not challenging, it's just incredibly annoying. And then you decide you are just going to do dungeons and screw the quests but after you do 10 dungeons you realize it's almost as boring and pointless. I made it to level 30 ...

    @moqee: Mmmm, a month sounds about right. Let me guess, somewhere around lvl 30 cuz you mostly used the game as a chat interface ? :D

    @Nashianei: It doesn`t take 4000 man hours to START playing, but it does take 4000 man hours to bring the fucking gold bar to that goblin on another continent for fuck sakes. 70% of the game is walking around like an idiot, well at least at low levels, i never got passed the low levels so i dunno the rest.

    @Nightshade Zero: You don't sound so lucky if you have to sell your games to buy food ...

    @bjorked: What do you mean ? I haven't payed much attention to FF news lately so what did i miss ? Is it short ? is it bad ?

    @SmiteMeister: How dare you address General Mao directly !

    Japanese schoolgirls ! Got to catch them all ! ... meh, pikmin, pokemon, all the same to me.

    @Bedlam: Man, i`m gonna play it even if it makes me shit rainbows but i will be one of those grumpy assholes that always complains about how it's missing something and then quit every week and say i`m going back to Diablo 1/2.

    @elmorepow: god damn new inventory and god damn icons, i don`t want to have icons bounded to my soul ! I want manly axes that take up half of my inventory ! No really, i do, i`m one of those people that loved to micromanage the inventory and cursing the guy that took the golden item because my inventory lacked one

    @Jack McCauley: hehe, well as a nice bit of info, i buy my games from the UK because they are at half price compared to where i live. amazon.co.uk forever !
