REALITY: The Ultimate Ascension

While we may all play games, there is one game that truly will torque even the best gamers.

This game is called Reality!

You do not get to pick your character. You simply have it from birth.

Your stats are not up to you to choose, but predetermined. Special abilities can be learned, but you have some that you cannot do no matter how much you try to master, and some you can do with ease. But not all abilities are useful! You could be a master at annoying people, or able to do more backflips in a minute than anyone else! You may be the worst cook in the universe, or trip over your own feet every few steps!

The hardest thing about this game has to be achieving goals and milestones. You can do everything right, and if the RNG falls wrong, you can lose your character's job, home, and even possibly family. Or, you could fall into a pile of dirt, discover a new process that hasn't been invented and retire before your character hits age 30!

There are also no levels, rather just quantities of skill. Not only that, if you do not keep in practice, your skills will atrophy! No more thinking you are done grinding skill! If you stop, you lose the skill!

You might ask why anyone would play this game. But I never said I would explain that one...

Has anyone else had any experiences with this game, or have more understanding about it? Feel free to share!

This game has no cheat codes, no respawning, no game saving and not to mention the servers are laggy as hell.

Im just gonna hit the quit button now and go play better games.

It sucks ass. It's just another game that tries to live on its graphics, like Crysis.

Seriously, the view distance is downright insane. My computer is built for gaming not launching NASA rockets, how the hell am I supposed to play this game without immense lag?

Not to mention the gameplay... my character once got sick and my stats were ruined for like a week. YEAH REAL FUN DEAR GAME DEVELOPERS! I thought a major part of gameplay was actually being able to play the game but NOOOOO...

The only ones who play this game are graphics-wh***ing teen nerds living in their mother's basement with no life.

Adrius, FYI the official developers have given up on this game LONG ago.

Now it's just mostly unofficial patches, crappy conversion mods and a player run support team

Yeah you'd think the least they could've done was throw in a nice development kit for the modders to improve this ****. It's gonna take ages for people to hack this game enough to make it playable.

The NPCs are dumb and cheat way too often, the difficulty ranges from non-existent to downright insane depending on your starting position, the morale system is utterly flawed, the boss fights could be very tedious, there is no way to build a character prepared for all situations, you need to pay monthly subscription no matter what... Worst game ever.

It begs the question then. If it really IS the worst game ever...

Why do we still play it?

Not to even mentio the romance options.
They suck. Only thing you need is a lot of money and there's like a gazillion of them and after a while all the characters just start giving you pointless tasks!

Don't forget about fall damage, and how what you eat actually changes your character's shape. Which in turn affects their stats. lol

the AI is very weird, absolutely unpredictable. you could do the same thing 10 times, and it will react in different way each time and never the way you expect

And the drop rates are insane! You can kill a few million squirrels, and you will still not find the Magic Wand of universal power! And forget any rare mount drops...

And even if something gets dropped, it's mostly organs or worthless sml bones. :/ Can't even sell them or forge them into decent armor. Also, exp gains leave some things to be desired, it's taking me for freaking ever to level up enough to be ready for college.

Yeah in the 18th century, two inventions suggested a method of measurement. One won and the other stayed in America.

Not to mention the leveling off of XP gain. If you want to become wealthy, or even just have enough not to have to constantly scrounge for repairs (which can only be done so many times before your gear is toast) or just for sustenance, it increases cost of things as you get more money, which means unless you happen to find some amazing treasure, or a relative leaves you a fortune, you can't really get enough to be comfortable. I mean really, what kind of game is this?
