the green Dwarf Battle-Axe: Is that Shaggy? :bigyello:
Yep is the mods. The woman is transgender (according to the discussion we had with the English messenger, ehhmm..)
The guy in blue looks like he's stretching, which is often done before vigorous exercise. The woman appears to be just chillin'.
Blue guy is who I select in those series.
Well, this scene kind of looks like what some threads here devolve into... XP - Is that Golden Axe or something? It's been ages since I last played that. :-)
OMG! Just OMG! :eek: :DQuote:

I'm not much of a gamer, so the humor is over my head. I don't even play phone games. I do own a PowKiddy V90 handheld and play a few of the simple retrogames on that when stuck in a waiting room or something.
To me those look like characters from an early version of Final Fantasy. But as I said, I'm pretty gaming illiterate.
Well dilettante, then you and I must be a couple of idiots... It took me minutes to even remember the game's name. I didn't get corrected, merely a bunch of emojis, so I guess I got it right... But since some people can't be bothered to communicate beyond a few emojis so I will have to do some more guessing...
I have no idea what it is.
You're right. It's Golden Axe. I played it quite a bit when it came out.Quote:

If you do not know Golden Axe you have missed the "romantic" game era. Pity. :wave:
Also the whole point of the thread is an unban , that we have yet to experience... :rolleyes:
You mean I missed an era only old farts still talk about! Oh dear! - Haven't you figured it out by now? I exist to stupidly derail threads with my inane irrelevant babbling. 😒😒😒
I'm not old or fart, I still play the axe one. Unfortunately our romantic period in Greece started a little late as we where 10-15 years back on technology from US and other countries.
If you missed the romantic era you don't know what you have missed so you can't talk about it.You can "act" that you know what you are talking about.
I exist to poke on vaxbies and NWO freaks as the banned one cannot do that.
I bubble and drabble.
How do you define a romantic era of computer games? Bad art?
I don't want to go in there. Who lived it, lived it.
Except if this in good fun, so ,yes, bad graphs (it's called graphics not art) and good gameplay...Unless if you had an Amiga. That was good on all accounts.
I stopped playing as soon as graphics took over and gameplay stepped aside.
Nowadays Larian is doing some effort but unfortunately I do not have the time for games.
P.S I never played Golden Axe was something that my grandparents told as a myth. I never knew it could be true.
It's like saying "I never played Pac-Man" . Let me see you mock on the big P.
Makes monkey noises and throws his **** around...Quote:

It's been more evolutionary than revolutionary...all the way along.
Shaggy, I know perfectly well what Golden Axe is (I actually somewhat played it back when it was relatively recent but I was never that good at video games) but I didn't want to be a know at all about it... And speaking of games pushing the hardware. I thought I owned a pretty decent pc until I nearly fried my previous pc's graphic's card playing Ori and the Blind Forest... And... I nearly fried my joints from the repetitive strain because I am a senile old geezer who oughn't be playing kidddy games anymore... LOL LOL - Did I mention I wasn't that good at games and that latter game also nearly fried my brain? LOL
EDIT:
And if sapator needs a forum jester to laugh at for being an idiot, he can go ahead as far as I am concerned...
I may have missed the point. Does this refer to struggling to work within the hardware limitations of the day where resolution and color palettes were very limited? Or "bad" in the sense of a preponderance of gratuitously bawdy images? "Gazongas: Warrior Queen of Tannonheim" or something?Quote:

Well, I certainly missed the point. That's why I was asking. I don't feel there have been any particular ages when it comes to computer games. As the tech advanced, the games advanced. Game play was limited, graphics were limited, but creativity seemed to stay about the same. The stories were as good as the platform allowed.
So by definition and since everything is involved, there was no romantic era of gaming.
So be it but accidentally you seem to know what the romantic era seems to be as you closely define it.
Anyhow it was good will intentional posting that got sideways, so , free NIYA and I'm done.
P.S. What's wrong with Pete? Did he swallowed a lobster or something?
Me? I didn't closely define anything. I said I've played video games from pong to the modern day and can't define any era's within them, aside from "text based adventures"/2D graphic/3D graphic.Quote:

Shell shock , song by Manowar that their song Hail and Kill was used in Golden Axe, they all connect.
"P.S. What's wrong with Pete? Did he swallowed a lobster or something?" - Why Sapator don't you know? I am just a lunatic who pretends to know things but knows nothing in reality. Shell Shocked, yeah I am just senile dutch lunatic with his piss poor attempts at english and delusional in thinking he can contribute anything worthwhile here. What else do we have here? Sapator who appears to imply I am the forum jester with his attempts at english. Just throw whatever which you can think of implying insanity. Whatever.
Either we can try have a normal conversation or throw more insults and jokes around. If you prefer the latter I am happy to oblige. Have fun calling a me a loon! 😁😆😜
Where did I call you a loon?
If I insulted you somewhere it was not intentional and I apologize. My posts are in good fan else you would real, REALLY, understand it.
And since, if I understand, you are Dutch, as a point of good gesture, please except one of those (as most of your beers suck!! Muhahaaarrr! :D , except Hertog Jan Dubbel that is pretty good but pretty expensive)

P.S. Normal conversations are boring, I prefer "war", at least in chit chat
I really want this to be a euphemism. I'm sure it's not, but it deserves to be.Quote:
I played Hunt The Wumpus
Dawww poor Sapator didn't really mean to call the crazy angry dutchman a loon and is apologizing? How cute, and I guess trying to insult me by deriding dutch beer is your way of doing that. Good one Sapator, you are really good at making apologies! I humbly bow to your humility and accept your apology! And don't worry about the beer because that's the one thing I don't give a **** about, so the joke is on you! muhahahaQuote:

Either the rules have changed or I have, because when I played it more recently it was totally winnable, whereas when I first played it, back in the 80s, there seemed to be an element of luck.Quote:

I don't care, of course, but for those who do, it just seems too easy these days.
@shaggy: I wouldn't have the slightest idea.
@sapator: war eh? *grinds his axe*
Ye, well if you don't take an apology and don't recognize my humor after all those years, the joke is on you.
The whole world is not turning around you so, it is what it is.
There is a LOT of bad beer. Should I badmouth brands? The Green one, aka dutch piss, the Red one, aka German puke, Badtastewiser etc. Lot of good ones tho. The one I posted it's very good at 5% and 10% volume p.e.
Why Sapator, the entire universe revolves around me! I am all knowing! Bow before me! muhahaha
As to the beer I very rarely drink non-alcoholic beer. - I am such a looser. ;-)
I guess that is better than be uptight :pQuote:

Well, I just looove to be pretend at being pointlessly uptight! LOOOL
