Seeing the look of concern on my face, he explained that the laughter of his people sounded like a human scream, and that he was very amused by the actions of this Ubisoft, which seemed to go against everything he had read about the conservative and tyrannical corporations of the humans.
Ubisoft really made this game, and I'm about to play it." So, the idea that a technology company, in the year 2013, would make a game that assumes all the cultural mores of 1985 is absurd. Some of us call this 'irony', even though the use of that word is-"
FAR CRY 3 BLOOD DRAGON SERIES
A whole series of movies, television shows and popular music is beloved precisely because it seems so dated and culturally specific. In the discrepancies between their attitudes and ours, much humor can be derived.
You see, thirty years ago people had much different ideas about technology, fashion, and the relative roles of the sexes. "Well, humans, or at least Americans, find the 1980s to be very funny. "Why is this joke humorous?" Now Zizmor looked genuinely puzzled. You know, with lasers and guys with cool names and stuff." And Ubisoft, a really big company that made a very popular game called Far Cry 3, 'announced' a sort of sequel to that game that looked like it was made by the nerds of the 1980s. "So video game companies do these jokes on April first, and 'announce' games that will never actually come out. "Right, so the companies that make video games think that it is funny-" "So, we've got these things called video games." Unsure of where to begin the walkthrough, I started with the system in front of us. His people, he said, call this ritual a 'walkthrough'. He had read about us but he had not lived among us, and while he knew solipsism to be a logical fallacy (having been disproved by his people during their Great Neural Revolution), he still believed that there was insight to be gained by watching another being in its natural state and asking it questions. He came from another dimension ("or very far in the past, but never-mind"), and his mission, if one could call it a mission, as Zizmor's people believed in taking action for the acquisition of pure knowledge and not for anything so crass as box-checking and goal-reaching, was to catalogue the lower-upper-middle-class experience in the human year 2013. So there I was the other night, sitting on my couch, having fired up the old PlayStation Three, all ready, like the video game writing dude that I am, to play the new game Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, when, to my surprise, a flash of light filled my living room, and when I regained my sight, before me stood a genuine outer space alien, who introduced himself as Zizmor, and sat down.Īfter making repeated assurances that he was not going to hunt me for sport, Zizmor explained his presence.
