- During the fifties through to the early eighties wrestling on TV basically served as infomercials for the live events. Cable and pay-per-view changed that formula. But I think maybe a wrestling promotion in a large metropolitan area could make that formula work again by posting matches to youtube advertising the house shows.
- Today I walked past a nail salon. All the middle-aged ladies getting their nails done were watching a Bruce Lee movie on a big-ass flatscreen TV. The universe is a little awesomer than I thought it was.
- I tried AdventureQuest for a few days. It seems to be a perfectly adequate simulator for the least interesting parts of D&D. Anybody got a recommendation for a browser-based D&D type thing-a-ma-bob with some overland exploration and/or dark, dingy dungeons?
Crapland is a game. (SPEED-RUN) Session twoo.

You may be amused by PseudoQuest.
ReplyDeleteYou've probably seen it, but:

I used to be an admin on the server that adventurequest used for their official chat. I wasn't a huge fan; I actually related this to Artix, the guy who put the original together, and he admitted he wasn't either. Apparently, it was intended to be a satire of other flash games at the time (runescape, etc) and ended up immediately catching on in a big way. He was flabbergasted, but developed it further and eventually monetized it. Complete accidental success that he now makes a very, very good living off of.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried Runescape? It's slightly childish in feel, but no more so than AdventureQuest, and it does have overland travel/exploration. It is also entirely browser-based (no download.) http://www.runescape.com/
ReplyDeleteOh, and though it doesn't feature overland travel per-se, given your sense of humor I think you might enjoy www.kingdomofloathing.com , It's the next best thing to Risus Online!
ReplyDeleteKingdom of Loathing is pretty great.
