Thoughts on Hellgate: London

sweener2001 · Post by **sweener2001** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 4:01 am

it must have been from your parents then, right? or someone you live with.

otherwise, how would they know if you're playing it or not? and every time you get on your computer, do they need to know whether you're playing it or not?

if you're playing any other game, will they get offended? wouldn't them finding out that your playing some free game because they one they payed good money for sucks offend them as well?

you're not putting much thought into this.

don't get me wrong, i understand receiving gifts graciously, but you're being stupid about it.

ahh, sweener. I happen to live at my parents till I get the money saved up to buy a place off of my uncle, I graduated last year. Didn't exactly grow up in a wealthy family, and where I live there aren't many job opprotunities, my town is pretty much dead to life. At the rate of gas now I can't afford to drive to the closest town and back daily for a job, I'd end up paying back into gas what I make practically.

Also, I never said that I actually play other games right now, I said that they were available, seems you're the one not putting much thought into it.

They took a long time to find it and I'm sure that they WOULD be offended if I just blew it off. I have WoW to play when they aren't here but I make it a show to play it for about an hour to keep appearances up, then jump back to WoW. No, I'm not being stupid about it, it's called showing my gratitude, and not only through words. As I said in the other post don't post on threads if you only plan to pick fights, thank you

I played Ragnarok there for awhile, was fun but the whole "snes graphics" kinda dulled me out of it.

I've never played it, specs not up to par.

Really? From what I saw the way the grpahics are is because they still know people on dialup are using it. I'm on cable, but when I try I get like 5FPS 'cause of my specs. XD it's a bit entertaining until I try to do stuff.

Astoroth88 wrote:I won't be playing single player games, they're boring, and I won't have to. as said from posts above, there are plenty totally free MMO's along with plenty of free2play ones.

Yeah, after you play a game with 20 other people and actually have 10 minutes of enjoyment, nothing in a single-player game can really compare.

1 - No, I've been bribing people various ways (none accepted leg humping, unfortunately) to draw for me for a few years now. I mentioned in another thread I'm going to change it soon, and I guess I'll do that in a few minutes.

2 - Yep. Those're my specs. it's certainly an upgrade from the 400mhz computer I was using just like a year ago, and I got this thing free from some old lady, monitor and all. XD I'm not exactly poor, but food and bills come before a new computer. Bills include cable internet 'cause I'm a work-at-home secretary (for a water filtration office my father's a part of), so I'm always having to print out maps for directions for the salesmen and install guys, and do reverse adress searches on people to get their numbers. Am saving up like mad for a $1,500 laptop for tech school.
This computer is why I'm using the DOS version of ZSNES. XD Installed 2K, no proper VESA2 support, and the windows version runs just a few FPS shy of being nice to look at.

by "took a long time," you mean asked the clerk what he might like?

or the fact they've seen you play games before, and picked a box art that seemed to fit?

you're talking like an old man who had to walk uphill both ways to school in three feet of snow seven days a week, and then work on the farm until sundown, but then you were so tired that you just went to sleep which explains why you never had a childhood.

appearances only need to be kept up for about two weeks, and you don't even have to play every day. you're still moaning about nothing in particular. when they ask you how it's going, just tell them you beat it already, it was fun, blah blah blah.

HOWEVER, i will admit that i was very excited about this game until i heard about the subscribing crap. then i lost all interest.

PS. mixing threads is stupid, and makes it seem like you want me to keep antagonizing you. there have been plenty of times where i have insulted someone in thread, and five minutes later made a nice contribution in another by the same person. in one, they were being stupid. in the other, they weren't. do you see the pattern?

No I mean that it took them awhile because it was sold out for awhile at our local stores, and didn't feel like driving all over gods creation with $3 a gallon for gas. I'm mixing threads because you're blatantly insulting me, and I want you to stop and actually talk about the thread. No one else seems to be doing this so it's obvious that you're the only jerk on this forum. So as I said before, stick to the thread or gtfo.

so you're choosing to ignore the part where i did talk about the game? i even used an all caps word to make sure it was read. pity.

1 line of the thread topic doesn't justify a paragraph worth of insults, sorry.
