Places like Kokiri Forest are nightmares of non-Euclidean spacial geometry.

The absolute worst thing was a forest in Tales of Legendia where a character in your party knew exactly how to get through one such forest, but stayed quiet when you tried to find your way out while being pursued by the game's major enemies.

Yeah, I hated a lot of things about Tales of Legendia.

Does this mean the town in a non-Euclidean nightmare too?

No. That's an unrelated rant because I hate those places.

I think ideally, you're supposed to shell out for a strategy guide. You know how the plot and direction are always incredibly vague in Final Fantasy games, particularly through VII? Guess when Squaresoft was publishing their own strategy guides.

Hehe funny.

Hey Led, I have a suggestion for you. Have you considered putting your comic in the Joystiq Weekly Webcomic roundup?

I had a conversation with Joe about the round up recently about how it basically is a method to promote terrible webcomics because almost all gaming webcomics aren't worth the increasingly inexpensive disk space they are stored upon. Then I realized, despite being non games RPGs are covered in Joystiq, and Legendary isn't terrible, in fact it is quite good. So you should try to get on it so my only choices to vote for aren't only between Penny Arcade and VG cats.

Wait, there are OTHER gaming webcomics?

I guess that was what those people on the OOTS forum were talking about.

Yes, most of them involve the sprites of Megaman and Sonic one of which is always an alcoholic and the other likes to kill people, but which is which? You'll have to read to find out.

F@nboy$ is also a pretty nifty gaming webcomic. I know the leet-speak must not be encouraging, but it's very good.

And I don't think I really have enough good "stand-alone" strips for the Joystiq thing.

I dunno, stand alone isn't really necessary. I mean I got JaB on for this one, and the first panel probably confused the hell outta people. Also if you don't feel comfortable plugging yourself there, I'll totally do it for you. Acclaimed Webcomics that aren't funny but are drawn pretty are an extreme pet peeve of mine so I'm glad to fight back with promotion of a poorly drawn comic that is funny and worth reading. With a vengeance.

Haha, holy crap, I was just thinking about that one earlier today.

And if you want to pimp my comic, go right ahead.

Waf · Post by **Waf** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 10:32 pm

I'll pimp your comic in the same way I pimp rides

Actually thats a lie, it'll probably be more similar to how I pimp prostitutes, and will lead to me roughing you for my money while wearing a fedora with a feather in it.

At least I won't be full of kittens. Inside myself is where I keep most of my vital organs!

Nahhh... They're both just really stupid and like to talk in l33t speak by saying "lol" every other word. Dr. Light is usually drunk.

If you were talking about bad sprite comics...
