I hate text based games.. All the ones I have played are so damn boring.. having a graphical interface makes everything so much more fun and entertaining..

Of course Game Development companies could make games like that but they would have a hard time selling it.

why? And no a graphical mmorpg can never be as in depth as a MUD. With a MUD I can do literally everything. I can get tatoos, grow wings, fly, fight in the air, jump on baloons, kill without stupid city killing rules, etc. Another thing I like is that role-playing is mandatory. Once when I was talking about my computer, my house leader (guilds basically) kidnapped me and threw me in jail and told me I would be released when I become "sane". I mean, how cool is that?

>Your avatar always reminds me of that Yu-Gi-Oh show
That show is hilarious. You should watch more of it. The basic premise is that everyone plays this card game, but nobody knows what any of the cards do. So every battle consists of the players explaining how their cards work.

>In achaea I can: <snip>
I'm guessing that most of that is because you can more or less echo anything you want and have it become an action. Kind of like the old pencil and paper RPGs.
I'm here to prove you wrong.

Yes its almost like playing D&D or something. Of course, I prefer a paper and pencil RPG but sometimes thats not possible.

hah icic.. I always just thought it was some stupid spin-off of pokemon, which I thought sucked... and I never understood how that card game actually worked. There were some people at my school who played that card game everyday at lunch lmao.. it was so gay, and people always harassed them..

Don't you think his avatar looks like a character from that show? lol

Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon are lame. Magic on the other hand is sweet (mainly because the illustrations do not look like crap. It also has more professional rules)

Come on, show some mercy. How can you compare something cool like my avatar with those childish shows?
