To DROD is to live another, greater life. We live for DROD. I DROD, therefor I am. But why? What is it about DROD that makes it so amazing? So breathtaking? So... well if I'm gonna make this stupid speech, I might as well skip to the end... with liberty and corn dogs for all!

I personally like it for both the story and the and the puzzles. It's so awesome!!! I'm obsessed with this game

So what makes it so great for you? What's your reason for being on this forum?

Why would it necesarrily be so that you don't care about the story if you care mostly about the puzzles? The puzzles are most important to me, but a good story is definitly a bonus.

It's original, I've never seen puzzle game like DROD before. Storyline is good with interesting characters and places.

When I become more skilled architech, I'll make holds for it. (I've done them before, but looking at my username makes no justice for them!)

That's funny!

You know, my older brothers are always saying that DROD has no originality even though the the main selling point for it is its originality and the DROD community says it's really original. I can't figure out why they think it's cookie-cutter.

Actually, I'm not gonna lie, I have never remotely been good at this game.

I pay attention entirely because the world and characters are so interesting.

I wonder what games your brothers deem original.
DROD is one of the most original games i know.

Because I feel that if I troll these forums, maybe someday I'll be able to beat KDD and move onto the other DROD games I've bought.

Also the sound that roaches make when the pop. (Actually, primarily that.)

Chinook, you do realize that nobody asked why, right? And what exactly is because of all that?

Halflife, Halflife 2, STALKER: Shadow of Trenobal, however you spell that, and Dawn of War were the first few examples of original games they came up with.

Unless I've missed something, (which of course these days is perfectly possible, my brain being mince much of the time, I'm sorry to say) you asked the question yourself my dear:

Oh, and welcome to the Caravel forums Chinook. You've been hiding for a long time - nice to see you out in the open, as it were.

oh I didn't consider he was asking the original question because A) the first thing was the reason for being on the forum, not the Eighth and B) we weren't talking about that at that exact moment. I'm the one whose brain is mince. I should have figured it out.

Because constantly changing the meta game is not original. Oh wait...
