Uh, how are you sure that they're delaying it to hype it up? It very well could be because of development reasons. I mean, have you SEEN the amount of weapons that are going into the game? I wouldn't be surprised if it takes a while to implement them into it, not to mention how complex some of the levels sound (design-wise). I mean I'd rather have a complete game than one that has a ton of content cut from it (Like KotOR II: The Sith Lords, which had an unbelievable amount of stuff taken out of the game because management was dead-set on making the game release before Christmas

The fact that they were playing a finished version in alot of the trailers makes it a bit suspicious.

These trailers. Besides, I'd like a complete game as much as you. But the way they dangle all this new stuff in front of my nose (Hardline perk, Bling perk, AA12) just makes me RAGE.

Online Translators. "I won't know most about F1." is not the same thing as "I wouldn't know much about F1."

Probably would be kinda funny if I weren't in the middle of a discussion with someone.

After the latest LFG comic, I am wondering yet again why I still read this piece of crap.

I don't think it's probably the worst webcomic out there. But it's almost certainly the worst webcomic that actually has a large fan following.

"lol, Pella lied and sent a handful gnomes to their death, in a successful attempt to save the entire rest of the gnome race. But because I'm Cale, the stupid Mary Sue elf, and I'm going to flip out and threaten to end her life, despite traveling with the chaotic-evil warlock Richard, who I daisies well know kills innocents on a regular basis for no reason other than fun."

God, the writing is wretched. At least up until now, you could excuse Cale's ignoring of Richard's genocidal tendencies, by saying Cale isn't nearly as self-righteous and good as he claims to be. But nope, nope, now he's going to flip out on the one person who was willing to further his cause instead of sitting around and waiting for everybody to die.

Pella let 20 or so gnomes die, in order to save hundreds of thousands. Richard has killed tens of thousands, for no reason other than fun. Obviously, Pella's actions are unforgivable. OBVIOUSLY!

Why do I still read this steaming pile of rhino feces?

Allergies. Will it ever end? The only thing I can smell is really strong coffee, and my hands which no matter how much I wash them still smell like barbecue sauce.

Because the art is good?

I started wondering that when Richard first went "lol internet".
Yet I still read it. And I don't even know what's going on anymore because I stopped paying attention to the story a while ago.

you forget, though, that Pella and Richard are very, very different people, and Cale had different expectations for them.


He trusted her to be different from Richard and the others, to be similar to him.

She was the ONLY PERSON HE COULD TRUST. That means he didn't really trust the others as he did her, especially Richard.

When expectations are vastly different, you cannot compare the two.

I myself was very dissapointed in Pella. It's okay if it's Richard because that's what he always does. Well, not exactly okay.. Cale has tried(and failed) on several occasions to stop Richard killing. I think Cale's just given up on Richard as a lost cause, and thought Pella was BETTER than that.

Unfortunately, Cale was wrong, and he lost his trust in Pella.








Also, people that reacted the way you did to that page piss me off.

That brings up another point. Hasn't Crunch and Benny done far more than anyone else to deserve his trust?

Pella was better than that. She let a few people die, to save thousands, where if she had done nothing, every single one of those thousands would have died. She was the only one of their group that had the intestinal fortitude to be a hero.

Either way, she was STILL better than that. How can Cale, and you, seriously compare her actions to those of a person who kills for fun? For all Cale's moral highroad, he continues to be buddies with Richard. How can he give Richard a get-out-of-moral-obligations-for-free ticket, simply because he's funny, and not do the same thing to Pella for being a hero? Ugh.

I'm just going to go back to this story is pathetic in it's execution. Not surprising considering it's from the same people who do that other crappy webcomic, Least I Could Do.

The grand problem with this comic, is it tries to use amorality-humor, which isn't really a problem, other webcomics like 8-bit Theater pull it off fine. No, the reason it fails, is because it also tries to take itself seriously as a story, and present an actual epic story, with characters that are supposed to be believable. And that, combined with amorality-humor, suddenly becomes a pile of crappy characters with ill-defined personalities and motivations.

You don't find either LFG or LICD funny.
