    • Space sim with newtonian physics = Independence War Series
      When the stars threw down their spears,
      and water'd heaven with their tears,
      Did he smile his work to see?
      Did he who made the lamb make thee?

        • That we have all the threeletter abbreviations shows cliche at a much more fundamental level.

              • ditto.

                I long for the say that an RPG has no rats in it.

                Perhaps that is what made KOTOR so good. No rats in it

                • in BG1 the rats were just a joke, a reference to the gaming cliche I suppose, IIRC.

                  • I haven't fought any rats so far in NWN. Or are there super-tough rats that you can only fight at level 10?

                            in the first expnasion- shadows of undrendtide there are some rats at the very beginning. no rats in the original though that I can think of. And none in Hordes of the underdark.

                              • Game clichés! It's the acronyms that are becoming clichéd. (See post above for details)

                                I mean: MMORPG. How are you supposed to pronounce that? Why can't people just call them ordinary things?
