  1. Re: Musings on Random Musings Take the kid home to you for good use the abuse as reason.
  2. Re: A Thread for Random Musings For some strange reason the posters in this forum has decided that all answers to the induvidual musings should go in the "musing on random musings" tread. I wonder if St Barbera knew that? Probably not..
  3. Re: kind of fantasy No but some are more down to earth. That is a very good explanation of the two genres Killershrike! You make a particularly good point about the difference between the main characters in epic and in sword and sorcery. What I meant was that it is that the player’s actions define the genre of the game as much as the main characters actions define the genre of fiction. But the way the game world is presented is a very good indicator of what type of genre the world is molded in. However the books I read about Magmamund was presented as Black vs white epic with a big world and well defined maps and bad guys. Good vs evil is an very important aspect of epic fantasy and the different factions in Magmamund are not just towns and kingdoms one like the next but parts in an grand saga of the battle of good vs evil.
  4. Re: kind of fantasy Wuxia it can be even though it is down to earth. The fact that fantasy makes something magical feel real is not really the point I tried to make with the episode of the three aprentices rather the attitude there show very clearly how non-magical the Lone wolf and cub universe is.
  5. Re: Full Metal Alchemist How does the American voice of Al sound Enforcer? The little guy is named Edward (Ed) and the big metal guys name is Alphonse (Al).
  6. Re: Complicate the Person Above Using ancient Kendo moves L Marcus has revolutionized the Swedish riverdance scene.
  7. Re: "Neat" Pictures So... You think that the war is over do you? Take that!
  8. Re: kind of fantasy Once I saw a martial arts movie called Gladiator which was pretty realistic. A fantasy is more than just something that is made up it represent hopes and dreams, fears and nightmares. Fantasy is a word both used to describe a genre and a state of mind.
  9. Re: Full Metal Alchemist Hey I have seen this series it is quite good. Best anime I have seen so far.
  10. Re: Sci-Fi Game or Porno Flick? It is possible to rename the hero world and still follow a heroic theme. This is the names I use for my campains. Star hero- Finest hour Fantasy hero- Pathway to glory Horror hero- Defenders of hope. Apocalypse hero- The long road.
  11. Re: A Game Of Questions What the hell is you all babbeling about? What is the questions? What is going on here? What kind of game is this anyway? Why is it so impossible to understand?
  12. Re: Complicate the Person Above Death tribble once got captured by the Deathslaughter Orc tribe. He later became their king with his mastery of rock and roll.
  13. Re: kind of fantasy I thought that was just a sideeffect of it being a chose a path book. Serously if Lone wolf and cub is fantasy then 90 percent of all martial arts and action movies is fantasy.
  14. Re: [Character] Ollix Androwsen Yeah orcs are humans too! Ehh wait.. That is an nice character you got there but what is the half orc char max limitation?
  15. Re: kind of fantasy I think that the genres would be better served by drawing a clear line between the unrealistic and fantasy.
  16. Re: kind of fantasy For fantasy you need magic. Star wars is fantasy. Finely tuned senses is not fantasy. No way no how.
  17. Re: kind of fantasy Batman is a superhero. For fantasy to be fantasy it must have magic, even though he is good he is not magical. Otherwise every movie where sombody is shot with a nine mm pistol flies backwards is fantasy too.
  18. Re: Complicate the Person Above L. Marcus leads Swedens largest Roman-catholic church.
  19. Re: kind of fantasy She is thinking of Lonewolf from magmamund. Its epic fantasy. Lone wolf and cub is NOT fantasy. Unless something really weird has happend to that series.
  20. Re: "Neat" Pictures He-he-he I have been waiting for exuse to post that picture.
