The Divorce of MMO and RPG

Posted by Zonk on from the mommy-and-daddy-are-fighting dept.

Jeff wrote to mention a new article up on Gamergod.com discussing the divorce of MMO and RPG. From the article: "At close inspection, their marriage reveals what is sadly becoming the new American love tragedy. Two people with little in common, more in lust than anything resembling love, decide to tie the knot. The rest is a classic example of what happens when two people leave the idea stage of marriage and enter the reality of marriage, and find out they don't like, let alone love, each other."

    I mean really. That is a sad article summary.

    Im sick and tired of every other article being MMO-related. WoW is popular -- BIG FUCKING DEAL, quit flooding the section with that crap. How about a real article, like the one I submitted about the DS Wi-Fi Bounty, something way more interesting and news worthy than this tripe. Mod me offtopic, but you all know its true.

    I assumed he came up with a dumb metaphor to use as a starting point for an article with some substance, but the entire piece drags the metaphor on and on without ever saying anything. It's painfully obvious that the author was very amused with himself.
