Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

+1

the trailer got my hopes up, but the film itself is just full of tired nerdboy tropes (the young mage guy is obviously meant for nerdboys to project onto) and bad CGI. like, it had good textures and all, but nothing moved like it had weight, and to add to that there was bad acting from anyone that had to wear or interact with a CG'd object.

of course it's made for nerdboys. that's the bulk of their playerbase, so that's who's going to get catered to.

I'd argue they don't make up near as large a percentage as you, and people who market to WoW's playerbase, seem to think.

look, it's not going to be marketed to the tumblr crowd, women, or whatever else you think it should be, because the traditional playerbase has been nerdboys. deal.

also the "young mage guy" is named khadgar.

all the time i've spent in PuGs, BGs, Raid Finder, Timewalking events, and Trade Chat has demonstrated otherwise.

if all you interact with in game is your guild of friends it's probably not as obvious, but WoW is still infested with nerdboys. or if not, everyone else is just a big a steaming pile of shit personality-wise as they tend to be.
