Nerdy Aspirations

With much of my early life wasted on runescape, it may come as little surprise that I love high fantasy, in particular MuhMOaRPuhGuhs. As with most gamers I am a constant critic, thinking I always know better than the developer. I Criticise every new update because of my protective nostalgia of how the game was "better when it first came out". Dusty, Blitz and Striker all did/still do play world of Warcraft. Its success always puzzled me, as I despised its shallow stories and weak attempt at gaming as an art form. Before all the WoW neck beards attack me however, its only jealousy. Despite this bitterness and these shortcomings, I think I actually know a thing or two about RPGs.

Perhaps its childish I don't know but for a long time ive been writing plans and scribbling down ideas for my RPG, in the extremely vain hope that one day I will mysteriously have to power to make one. I'm not alone in this, Striker regularly chirps up his suggestions for this mystery RPG. Although I think I'm the only one who went as far as to start a notepad with all my ideas on. Actually that does sound pretty childish, although I can't really remember the last time I let such silly social conventions rule my life. I don't really know where i'm going with this, just wanted to get it out.
