Watching a person get sucked wholly into the hype of a yet-to-be-released MMO is like the slightly amusing and sympathy generating experience of watching a puppy try to run around on a frozen pond: a frantic yelping cacophony of boundless enthusiasm and no balance, often ending in a painful experience.
Jumpgate Evolution’s current tagline on their site is “One universe. Infinite possibility”.
Look at the puppy run! Tee hee hee. Run puppy, run! Oh, he slid into the tree of Slightly Less Possibilities Than An Infinite Amount, In Fact There Are Just Two Possibilities And We’re Patching One Of Them In After Release.
Yeah, I know, but it’s a really really big tree.
But… but… it’s so much FUN!
Why would you deprive puppy of fun as you sit on the shore?
I couldn’t deprive the puppy of its fun even if I wanted to. Old curmudgeon chasing a puppy across ice? We all know how that one ends.
Poor, poor puppy. I can hardly bear to tell him.
Puppy & toilet paper also seem to fit here…
‘One universe. Infinite possibility.’ As long as you run Windows.
One universe. Infinite possibility. As long as you run Windows.
Apparently that’s what Bill Gates has tattooed on his left buttock.
