The only MMORPG I play now is clan lord, I used to play Puzzle Pirates, but that didn't go so well.

And Clan Lord doesn't have any "Auto-Attack" buttons, or final bosses (Unless I misunderstood you, and you just meant powerful creatures, like the ones on Metzetzli Island) or anything like that, essentially, it's one of the few uncorrupted MMORPGs.

I did not think I was being insulting or condescending, but okay.

There is not another game where you're kicking people across the floor and they actually stand back up again hit you back, I was constantly getting hit when I first played and it was really fun rather than frustrating. I love the ragdoll physics, it makes these games like 10 times more fun. Oh, and the blood was also hella cool. I'd constantly try to trip over that high tower on level one and hit the pavement below to get a face bleed. And how you can stab bodies anywhere on the ground and they get a blood piercing where the blood actually bleeds downward. And, yeah you bleed out of your mouth, you bleed out of your mouth, how cool is that to watch? Very.
I couldn't agree more. There's just something magical about setting fire to a dead rabbit, setting the power to 650.0, stabbing it, and waiting 20 seconds for it to come crashing down to earth like a meteor.

Out of context, that sounds really odd ...

Also, Colicedus was saying that games like that where you don't really have much to do with the fighting like Diablo are tedious. Knights Of The Old Republic is a game where you just choose the attack, and it is carried out for you, but it is probably the greatest game I have ever played next to Half Life 2, so what you said is very shortsighted and ignorant.

The reason that I bought lugaru is cause... well... um...... its kinda like..... hm... why DID I buy Lugaru?!? IT FREAKING AWESOME THATS WHY! And there's another topic to bring up: What's your OCD with Lugaru? I got into the habbit over the summer of listening to Tenaciouse D whicle kicking a** with my kung fu/Kook Sool Won Tenaciouse DDT power! Thanks for letting the forum arguing people know what's right, David. Keep up the good work on L2.
By the way, check out my site: http://www.wormyadventures.com/ (It's a game that I'm making (I already have an old version of wormy on newgrounds)). Peace

Ignorance can also mean ignoring things that do not suit your view. This is the basic concept of everything you feel being right, and any evidence contrary to this being disregarded. You were in fact being ignorant.

Also, I was not talking about MMORPG's. I don't play them. I was talking about the way you disregarded games which promote intelligent gameplay rather than action gameplay. I do note that there are also hybrids of both aspects.

You reasoned that because Diablo does not require many buttons to play it, it is a bad game. This is a rather simplistic view to take.

I note I have not played Diablo, but am instead arguing on the principle rather than the example here.

I couldn't get the first level of Wormy to load, and I wasn't really going for a serious look at it, either, I was still browsing the forums. :roll:

Back on topic:
The first thing I noticed about Lugaru was that it was 3D! :lol:
My rendition of it was a 2D cartoonish sidescroller :?

But it's much better than that! 8)

Lugaru is probably better than Clan Lord too, but clan lord is probably a bit more actively used by me, because of the changing world, and other players that end up creating different situations.

Right now, however, I tend to play Lugaru more, since nothing interesting is happening in the Lok'groton island chain right now.
