[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 3689298, member: 4134"] Not OK. There are firearms. But they're only now emerging, and certain individuals want to keep a lid on them for various reasons. It's not that much different from our world, where some areas of knowledge/research made more progress in the last 20 years than in the 2000 years before that. *COUGH**COUGH*watercoursetrilogy*COUGH**COUGH* What germ theory? There is no germ theory. Diseases are manifestations of the deity of disease's power. Everyone knows that. In order to cure someone, you use divine magic. Instantaneous healing. We need no glass to look at cells. Just go to the next dungeon. It has cells. What else are you referring to? That everything is made up of tiny little things like some madmen from a different world is raving about? It is more important to a nation to fly to the moon, or to build the highest building mankind ever made, or create race cars that are even faster than those we had before just for some pilots to drive around in circles with them, than it is to feed millions of people. Are we still complaining that roleplaying is unrealistic or are we now complaining that it's realistic? :p Yeah, because after they die, they go to those evil gods' domains to be rewarded for their misdeeds! Just like the good goods reward their faithful for their deeds. Some don't think that they're malignant, they're doing the gods' work. Others work for those evil gods to undermine their good counterparts. Others are just humans, who can be real pricks, and nothing short of total mind control (by the gods or by someone or -thing else) will change that. [/QUOTE]
