EDITORIALS
Double Take May 7, 2007


Editor's Comments: Alan rebuts Jeffrey's job class editorial series by sharing his adventures through Knights of the Old Republic. Have you ever had an experience quite like this before?


Editor's Comments: Stewart has found many issues and limitations with JuMeSyn's editorial on permanently killing off characters. At what point do you sacrifice one area of a game for another?


Editor's Comments: Bret brings us an amusing editorial on multiplayer gaming in traditional console RPGs. Does it really have a place or is it just too dangerous?


Editor's Comments: JuMeSyn relives an old episode of the Batman TV show today as he discusses the problems with horrid sound effects in RPGs. Have you ever muted an RPG because of one annoying effect?




Editor's Words

We have two rebuttals. Yeah, you heard me right, I said two. Thank you both for not letting the forum bug bite you and being brave enough to write in. Now enjoy being picked apart. Hey, everyone has an opinion here, so just take it all with a grain of salt and you should be fine. Just know that I'd like to hear from our readers as a whole about what changes you would like to see here. Would you like more editorials per update? Would you like to see a new HTML layout? How about more pictures? Less talk? Specific topics? Just let me know here or on the board. I look forward to hearing from you. For now, on to the editorials.

We start off with Alan Tse in a rebuttal to Jeffrey's job class series discussing how Knights of the Old Republic changed his outlook on RPGs. Have any of you had a similar experience? We also have Stewart countering JuMeSyn's editorial on killing off characters with his thoughts on how it would hurt the genre. Our new staff multitasker Bret takes a break from translating to bring us his thoughts on multiplayer functionality in traditional RPGs. Closing us out is JuMeSyn with an editorial about his disdain for horrid sound effects in RPGs. I know exactly how he feels in this case.

Let's try something new. I don't believe in horoscopes, but for all you Taurus folks out there the stars predict tomorrow you'll wake up, do a bunch of stuff, and then go back to sleep. Gotta love it. If you recognize the song, good for you. I really hope you all have some great stuff in store for us this week. If you've been saving something special up, then just send it in to editor@rpgamer.com. I look forward to reading it and I'm sure that our readers do as well. Until next time, enjoy these and discuss.
