I just lost my player profile by clicking on "View Results", as the answer I'd like to pick isn't in the poll.

"DROD is my anti-drug for curing MMORPG addiction."

Mainly for the challenge. There aren't enough hard games today, so the fact that DROD isn't afraid to offer a truly challenging experience sets it apart.

Evil spirits. Definitely the evil spirits. They also cause me to eat sushi, collect old magazines, and read the backs of sugar packets.

I have never played Halo, but I still put it up there as a choice.

That doesn't make sense in a "Why are you playing DROD" poll.

Actually, I believe what The Architest meant (by offering that particular choice in his poll) is that a person might think DROD is great but that Halo 3 is still better. (I think he was joking, too.):fun
(I'm attempting to assist him slightly with his English, grammar, etc., so you guys might want to cut him a little slack.);):)

More on topic, I play DROD because it's silly and campy but still manages to contain some puzzles which are pretty dang difficult!

We know that's what he meant. We're wondering why he'd mention Halo 3 here. It seems completely random, aside from them being in opposite genres.

I suppose you are correct. I'm just trying to help him out a bit, and I can sometimes get in trouble when I do that sort of thing.O:-

Problem is... corporate business types might not be too happy about having their intellectual property used for something this great. Which wouldn't be a problem if they didn't have lawyers.

Well, I'd agree that Halo 3 own in its own genre, but DROD and the Halo series just ain't comparable.

So both DROD and Halo 3 rules in their own genres. :)

I don't actually. Having school, lack of social life and lots of coding on my head, I tend not to play anything which isn't at least 95% coded by me. Excepting doing random scripts for DROD RPG, but that doesn't really count, now, does it?

It is just that it isn't the same game anymore since JTRH release. I think I miss this hours of cursing on the good ol' AE :).

EDIT: And that's all fault of the More-or-less-evil-but-not-really spirits ;)

if it's a user-created mod, there shouldn't be an issue.

In the Halo (i.e. Microsoft) case, their lawyers actually went and wrote something about it: http://www.xbox.com/en-US/community/developer/rules.htm

So yeah, you could realistically create a non-commercial Halo/DROD hybrid without attracting nasty cease & desist letters from Microsoft.
