hehe, I love tangents. :icon_razz:
Oh, I'm sorry, from the sarcastic remark at the end of that post I thought you were implying that GOK agreed with warmaster's comment. My bad. :icon_redface:
What exactly is the primary function of the game, hmmm? Clearly, talking is one of the important aspects, just like building troops and nobling villages. This game has many aspects. So, how do you define which on is the primary one?
No, that is very true. But there sure are a lot of them that you can. Actually, in other online games that you can't necessarily talk in them, but you can post comments about them on the site in which you are playing them. So it can conceivably be argued that talking (in the form of typing, of course) is common to most all (I'm sure there is some exception you could find somewhere, so I am dealing in generalizations for just that reason.) online games.
Fact, a lot of people enjoy this game because of the talking. :icon_rolleyes:
The purpose of the game is to entertain you. If chatting with other players in-game or on skype, or ripping apart feeble argument in the forum is fun for you, then that is all that matters. That is the point.
hehe, not very well, though.
