You can't deny that those three have had an impact on society, though.
#5	Sorceror	Sun, 28 Mar 2010 23:01:54
I can deny whatever I want!

Or if your name happens to be Sorceror, then indeed,you can.

Oh gawd I hate these little online games.
#10	Sorceror	Mon, 29 Mar 2010 23:52:44
Quint: so you play a massively detailed offline one instead?
#11	neovigo	Tue, 30 Mar 2010 13:00:14
I hate all massive multiplayer games, social websites. I loathe of Facebook, WoW, Twitter etc. I've always preferred single player games, notably point & click adventures and good old DOS based games. When they make a Massive Multiplayer Online Point & Click Adventure Game, I'll know that the time has come to me to move to Alaska or Klondike, live in a log cabin deep in the woods, eat moose meat etc ;) Last edited: Tue, 30 Mar 2010 13:01:06

Sorceror: Well, actually, I play Nethack online. But it's far from "little". However, it is true that most games I play are single-player.
#13	Sorceror	Tue, 30 Mar 2010 21:19:30
I didn't describe Nethack as "little", and it's not multiplayer so playing it via telnet doesn't really count :)
#14	Slandor	Tue, 30 Mar 2010 23:40:21
It is multiplayer -- it's just that all the other players are dead.
#15	STL	Wed, 31 Mar 2010 02:23:45
True. You can actually encounter other players in the game, thus, it is multiplayer.
#16	Sorceror	Wed, 31 Mar 2010 04:08:49
NPCs don't count.
#17	STL	Wed, 31 Mar 2010 06:42:36
I was talking about bones. Sure, the players are not alive when you encoutner them, but you encounter them nevertheless.
#18	xCheckPoint	Wed, 31 Mar 2010 08:41:40
E for Slandors comment
#19	Sorceror	Wed, 31 Mar 2010 21:52:42
Bones files include NPCs. Now, if there was some system for people to be notified that they're in someone elses's game as a bones file, then allow them to controll their ghost/zombie, then THAT would be multiplayer :) As it stands, Nethack is closer to "multiuser" than multiplayer.
#20	Anonymous	Thu, 1 Apr 2010 03:15:47
For it to be multiplayer, it would have to be like MAngband. You think a real-time Nethack would work?
