    Nah Retro isn't an RPfag. RPfag usually goes with mmo addict.

    yeah I was going to but I was heading out and just wanted to quickly post it. I can't make it a poll now, I think a mod has to. So if a mod wants to make it a poll go right ahead.

    Also, I think 23 is about the fact that people argue about the platforms, when the game was released, how it was attained... etc. So 23 is the guy who just likes playing games and doesn't have a beef with anything. I personally have never met a gamer such as this, and I personally don't think they exist :D

    I'm quite guilty of being a "Games=ARTfag", but what else can you say when Team Ico is being discussed?
    And I'm a bit of a JRPGfag, too.

    But other than that, I'm almost a no.23.


    Now -- who'll be the first to admit being a Roneryfag? :D

    Real Gamer/Consolefag/IDORT


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 35,079 Mod ✭✭✭✭AlmightyCushion


    PC fag (despite owning a ps3), pirate fag and a bit of jrpg fag thrown in for good measure.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,936 ✭✭✭rizzla


    Consolefag, Nostalgiafag and a small bit of Piratefag (Just PSP)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 29,468 CMod ✭✭✭✭johnny_ultimate


    JRPGfag / Artfag, and I'm probably a bit of a moralfag as a well.

    (side note: I never thought I'd use the word fag three times in a single sentence and still have it make sense)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,431 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    JRPfag, artfag and nostalgiafag. I don't get what RPfag is? I'm a bit slow today.

    I might have said real gamer but a real gamer wouldn't want to play MGS4 :P

    I don't know what it standsfor but the example portrays someone with a stiff upper lip who over analyses games.

    I thought of you.

    I'm a fag.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman

    20% nostalgiafag

    idort
    indecisivefag
    The Casualfag
    The fratboy
    the "real" gamer

    Thats me alright but maybe it fits under artfag as well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,919 ✭✭✭✭Gummy Panda


    RPfag is someone who actually role plays using his games.

    think of RP servers in WoW. They would use inns and other locations to role play themselves as some character and talk to each other as if they're living in that world.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,707 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    WRPGfag would be "Western RPG fag" -- as Western RPGs are highly focused on character involvement, customisation & evolution.
    So pretty much anything Bioware's made, or Fallout 1/2.

    Jesus, that certainly isn't me. If I ever end up like that everyone has my permission to beat me to death with a copy of resident evil 4 to put me out of my misery.
