    Dear Capcom

    Dear Capcom,
     
     
    Make Megaman Legends 3.
    Stop screwing around.
     
     
    Sincerely,
    every single person who played Megaman Legends 1 and 2
    March 05

    I hate it, everyone else loves it.

    I'm not normally one to complain about stuff, as evidenced by my website before I started reading Maddox.
    But everywhere I go, no matter what I do, I see people singing praises for a whole whack of complete and utter crap.
     
    Since I see I'm apparently in no hurry to start a thriving community based around my awesome webcomic, here is a list of various stuff that I believe genuinely sucks balls; I'm talking stuff that I think nobody in their right mind should be, as I said before, singing praises for because it would mean enduring sudden and random punishment.
     
    1)Manhunt
    A genuine murder simulator you all thought was so good, they're making a sequel on the Wii.
     
    2)Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
    I never read the books, but I saw the movie. Since I understand the movie is a quality, completely reliable compilation of sorts, I believe I can easily say that all of you guys share the humor level of this garbage.
    That is to say that Hitchhiker's Guide is trite, lameassed, and tasteless.
     
    3)Starcraft
    Stop your damn yapping about what you did in Starcraft. Nobody cares. There was only one truly interesting instance in that game, and that was when my friend set up some massive defense against an infinite spawn in some campaign. It was hilarious.
    Otherwise, the game is boring as hell. Want to destroy your friend's base? Light his house on fire instead of indulging in this antiquated pop.
     
    4)All Korean MMOGs
    They are terrible games. Some of the worst grinds you could ever hope for you can get from these games.
    That's not to say there aren't bad grinds anywhere (or everywhere) else; I'm just saying that every Korean MMOG is the exact same thing.
     
    5)Fable
    You damn fools! There are still a scattered mass of idiots out there that found this game anywhere from satisfactory to excellent.
    Why aren't they all dead yet?! Get off your ass and put an end to this!
     
    6)Daft Punk
    I'd been forced to listen to this weak music on my friend's car radio several times in the past. I suppose simple repeating lyrical and musical patterns are easier on the mind for some of you who find everything else up until Daft Punk too complicated.
    Ooo, they did AMVs! Anything anime related is cool and therefore I should love it!
    Oh, that reminds me...
     
    7)Anime
    No, I don't dislike all anime of course.
    To be specific, pretty much every anime series that has ever been licensed to TV in recent years or ported and bastardized on FoxKids.
    Anime is such a terrible curse to any discussion forum; it's like you can suddenly see everyone for the nerds they are.
    Seriously, make another Naruto or Bleach avatar. It will only serve to help me compile my list of people I'll be sending Cancer and vehicular homicides to for Christmas.
     
    8)Webcomics
    Believe it or don't, I tend to be on the fence about every webcomic out there. My biggest issue is with shifting focus.
    Evolution of the drawing style is totally acceptable, but going from an alright comic about games to a huge string of weak crap comics about dating and getting married is just criminal.
    I don't care about your characters so much that I need to be constantly getting all this backstory and history.
    Seriously, do you want to be entertaining or do you want to chronicle the everyday happenings in the vast world your characters live in? If so, quit out of comics and go write for The Simpsons.
     
    9) ...
     
     
     
    I guess that's all I can think of right now.
    Just wanted to get that out there. It's not that I care so much about these kinds of things that I write a rant; it's that I wish my forumgoing would be far less polluted with all this stuff.
    But oh well.
     
    Since I'm not working on the webcomic at all lately, I suppose I'll take that trip to Fantasy Island. I've been meaning to use this invitation I received in the mail late last year, but I kept putting it off because of all this work I've been doing on the webcomic.
    I'll be there for a little while, just to clear my head a little of the constant blogging and drawing I've been doing. It really does get to be a strain after a while.
     
    See you guys soon.
    Maybe while I'm there, I'll see about finding a doppleganger of some kind. Let him do all the hard work.
