This game basically takes all the great things about RPGs that we know and love (leveling up, gaining skills, getting new equipment) and puts all the emphasis on those things while absolutely minimizing time spent doing the things that waste your time like looting, traveling, finding your corpse after you die, etc.
There's online and offline play, and a complete ranking list for all online players. The people who play this game seem much improved over the usual drunk-on-the-power-of-anonymity jerks who usually populate MMOs. Not to mention that there are almost 400 race/class character combinations to keep you busy.

This game is great. Far more interesting than many other MMORPGs I've played.
Posted by lem (Member # 6914) on :
This is great! I am a Will 'o the Wisp Mu-Fu Monk. I am still level one. I will get back to you when I level.
I have always wanted a MMORPG I can play while I study! This is my new favorite game!
The sad thing is I am occasionally checking my progress.

I'm trying to figure out what my "Festooned Studded Lace" cuisses look like- not to mention "Dented Flannel."
Still, this game is good for killing time. I can just watch it for minutes at a time.

My character just fought a bacon elemental. This game rules.
Posted by lem (Member # 6914) on :
The only thing I don't like is that I wanted to hold onto the "porn elemental lube" in my inventory..but I had to sell it.
EDIT: Is anyone else killing boy scouts? I have collected enough handkerchiefs and merit badges to start my own troop.

I kicked that battle-beagle's doggy butt.
Posted by Primal Curve (Member # 3587) on :
lem, yeah. I just fought a greater Eagle Scout. I kicked his helping-old-ladies-across-the-street pansy ass.
Posted by Enigmatic (Member # 7785) on :
Wow, addiction therapists should use this as a step to wean people off of MMORPGs. It gives you an outlet for your need to have experience points and improve stats, but without having to get so involved in it. Impressive.

I now have three instances running.
Posted by lem (Member # 6914) on :
I am a Level 8 Mu-Fu Monk and my highest spell is "Hastiness." Do we all get the same spells?
What is your class and predominate spell?
Posted by airmanfour (Member # 6111) on :
My class is Ur-Paladin and my highest spell is "Good Move", And boy is it.
Posted by Primal Curve (Member # 3587) on :
I have three characters of different races and classes. They all have the same spells (though the higher-level characters have more), but they focus on different ones.
My level 8 Half-Human Mu Fu Monk's highest spell is Rabbit Punch. My level 6 Crested Dwarf Fighter Organist's highest spell is Hastiness My level 3 Will o' the Wisp Mage Illusioner's highest spell is Rabbit Punch too, though for a long time it was Innoculate.
For obvious reasons, my Mage is also nearly at the same level of spell casting as my Mu Fu Monk, though with less spells overall. I rolled until the dice showed really high stats overall with the highest in Intelligence and Wisdom.

Posted by Juxtapose (Member # 8837) on :
I've got two chars running.
One is a 38 Land Squid Hunter-Strangler. It makes so much sense. Favorite spell so far: Grognar's Bid Day Off. and YAY! for festooned Kevlar.
My other is a 35 Enchanted Motorcycle Voodoo Princess (god, I love this game). I'm wondering A) how it wears gauntlets, and B) how it wears gauntlets made of +4 plasma... Best spell: Cone of Annoyance.

Ah. My chracters progressed nicely whilst I was at home.
Galdar the Muskinfleck, my Halfman Mu-Fu Monk is now level 26. He is currently sporting a +12 Steely Pronged Lance and a +13 Cambric Custom Tower Shield. His armor is a mixture of Titanium, ABS, Plasma, Diamond Mail and Kevlar. That must be a sight to see. His post powerful spell is Level 12 Hastiness. He also just sold an Astral Gemstone of Punctuality.
Zebcred, my Crested Dwarf Fighter/Organist is now level 25. He is currently sporting a +2 Stabbity Venomed Bandyclef and a +10 Festooned Studded Baroque Shield. His armor is primarily Diamond Mail with some Kevlar, Holey Mildewed Plasma, Mithril and Splint mail. His most powerful spell is Level 11 Rabbit Punch.
Phantom Temptress, my Will o' the Wisp Mage Illusioner is now level 24. She is currently sporting a +9 Venomed Serrated Culverin and a +8 Custom Studded Aegis Shield. Her armor is primarily Mithril mail with a mixture of Splint mail, Mildewed Corroded Plasma, Diamond mail and Titanium. Her most powerful spell is level ten Slime Finger.

"Stabbity" should be codified into the English language.
"I shouldn't go to work today; I'm feeling too stabbity and it'd be dangerous for my coworkers."
Posted by Primal Curve (Member # 3587) on :
I just completed a quest where I sought "The One True Fleece."
Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :
You know, I wonder if the "game's" satirical bite is weakened or strengthed by the fact that people actually PLAY it.
Posted by Juxtapose (Member # 8837) on :
Well, noone actually "plays" it...
But I have to say, I really think it's strengthened by numbers. Besides, it's so amusing.
Posted by Tinros (Member # 8328) on :
I just finished a quest in which I had to "placate the porn elementals." I guess they were a little overexcited.
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
Level 20 Half Orc Bastard Lunatic. Best spell is a level 9 Good Move, and I got a level 8 Cone of Annoyance and Rabbit Punch. And a boat load of Mithril. And a cheese elemental curd.
Posted by Primal Curve (Member # 3587) on :
My newest spell is "Holy Roller," but my favourite is "Holy Batpole."
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
I'm a fan of "Cone of Paste".

My level 12 Big Sister spell is doing wonders. Posted by Nell Gwyn (Member # 8291) on :
I have yet to venture into the world of RPGs, but y'all's posts on this one are so amusing that I may have to start.
Posted by Juxtapose (Member # 8837) on :
Ooh! I just added "Tonsilectomy" to my spellbook!
Posted by Juxtapose (Member # 8837) on :
*bump* Progress update!
Trackaem, my Enchanted Motorcycle Voodoo Princess is now at level 60. How are you other questers doing?

Sounds great to me, After Star Wars Galaxies switched from a 32 profesion interchangeable skill-based system to a 9 profesion non-interchangeable class-based system i haven't been having too much fun. Maybe i'll check this out tonight
Posted by Dr Strangelove (Member # 8331) on :
Don't get too excited. Unless there's something I haven't figured out, the thread title does not lie when calls out to lazy gamers. I had fun with it for about a week, then my guy (I forget what he was) got up to about 80, and I kept on missing the plot developments when I was away from my computer, so I gave it up.

My little guy, Frutout, is at level 44 at the moment.
Posted by Goldenstar (Member # 6990) on :
Hmm, this is less fun than i though it'd be. The no avatar or not actualy doing anything gets pretty boring pretty quick.

It's not supposed to be fun - it's lampooning MMORPGs, which really should get pretty boring pretty quick.
Posted by Juxtapose (Member # 8837) on :
It's mildly entertaining to check back and see what you're fighting and such. lots of the monster names are amusing.
Honestly, the build up is part of the joke. Ero did it to me when he made me download it, and I passed it along. It's the only way to get any humor out of it. Now you all can pay it forward! Yay.
