| Squilliam said: Ok and for those who are truly hardcore. The original 7 virtues of gamers. Chastity: A true gamer is wholesome in both mind and body, so he does not choose to seek the companionship of the opposite sex. Temperance: A hardcore gamer does not press any button before its' time nor later than its due. He has the clarity of mind to perform at a level of perfection. Charity: A hardcore gamer shall seek to share his knowledge to those who are less worthy in the hope that some of them may be saved. Dilligence: The temptations are many, hardcore however is the only path to enlightenment. Kindness: Understand that there are those around you who are less able to walk the path than you. Be kind and take pity on them, they suffer for their ignorance of the true path. Patience: Though the challenges may be many and the levels may be broken, a true gamer will exhaust all options before retiring. Humility: A hardcore gamer seeks only the rewards of the game. He forsakes all praise but that of the games he plays. Seek to follow these virtues if you are truely hardcore. These are from before the days of the "mass market games" |
Thus sayeth from the book of Old School, Amen. 
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
