dux Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I used to find this mildly amusing about 3 years ago. And now it's shit. Hurrah for xkcd and penny arcade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrieChamp Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I stopped reading CTRL+ALT+DEL long time ago.

BaRRaKID Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I actually like these story arcs, they are what distinguishes CAD from other comics. It makes the characters more real, they actually have a life, different personalities and back stories. There are still some funny story arcs every now and then, but i think this is a nice brake from the "3 panel joke" that very comic since penny arcade uses, he mixes serious business with retarded jokes, and in my opinion that makes it much superior to all the other comics. I think Tim is trying to make it not just a game comic, but a comic about a gamers life, and gamers eventually get married and have kids, it's all part of real life. With this i think he creates a nice foundation to make the comic evolve, rather than stagnate, like for example penny arcade which is getting really boring pretty fast in my opinion.

Sentura Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 i never liked either CAD or PA, but then again why settle for less when you have a comic like http://www.achewood.com? in fact, this comic is so good that it doesn't need you people. it doesn't care about you. but you need it. read a couple of the story arcs and you'll see why. absolutely sublime from start to finish.

Thrik Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Very poor. If I want serious drama I'll read an actual comic drama, not one that's meant to be funny and about games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrieChamp Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 I like PA because it's up to date and spot on sooo many times on game related topics. If I wanted social drama I would watch a sitcom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
