[QUOTE="13garth13, post: 5955356, member: 16979"] You know, I'm not the poster of the comment in question, but there reaches a point where one doesn't really see the need to elaborate in a quick post, especially if it is something that one imagines everyone knows (much like I don't ever feel the need to point out that water is wet, I'm sure the poster of the quote you've taken issue with just kinda assumed that most people on a gaming site would be familiar with the Twilight series of role-playing games). So step back, take a deep breath and use some Google. I've personally never played the game, but I remember the ubiquitous ads from Dragon magazines back in the day. And I can infer based on the realistic post-WWIII nature of the game that it would be extremely lethal. Shoot, if someone throws out a comment about CoC's insanity mechanic do you get upset because they didn't elaborate further? Some things you take as a given that gamers are familiar with.... Of course, text translates tone terribly, so it could be you didn't mean to "sound" as put-out and snarky as you did. If this is the case then I truly apologize for snarking back. If you really are put-out then, like I said, try Google before jumping down buddy's throat. Cheers, Colin P.S. I would really be surprised if 9/10 of the people on this board have not at least [B]heard[/B] of the Twilight RPG, even if they haven't played it. [/QUOTE]
