By the way, this is my art style. I believe in minimalism. The worm was purposefully drawn crappy. All of my comics are made in MS paint along a space of five minutes. This is why I am able to update quicker than other sprite artists. I don't exactly know what takes them so much time. Lukkistarr, an artist on Pixel Crusade, has been designing a comic for the past three weeks. He's currently five comics into it, with only base advances in story and exposition. I decided that I wanted to proceed quickly with my comic, producing a start, middle, and end to a given story arc within a week or two. It's a great hobby for me and people really like it when you update with a big ol' chunk of comics that they can spend time browsing through. The only caveat, of course, is the poor production quality, something our beta-testers brought to my attention.
Even so, most MMOs I have played have graphics on par with this. Biospark has dragged me onto many a Korean server and we've had a jolly good time beating shit up. He's also half the reason I am tempted to play any MMO at any given time.
Unless I'm playing with friends there is absolutely no reason to play an MMO in my mind, period. They're insufferably boring in my opinion, at least once the effect of all the flashing colours and congratulatory sound effects and levels and stars and powers wares off.
Oh I just leveled up, congratulations all around; such gratification and glee. Now do it again. And again! Until you realize, you shouldn't have started in the first place. It's like doing the math problem X+1 when X goes to infinity. Gratification will always be just out of your reach.
