Things you learned from video games

No matter how important the conflict, it always starts with a pistol round

 

[SMOGZINN]

Always pick up everything you see and carry it around with you at all times, no matter how strange, because there are lots of puzzles in life that can be solved if you remembered to pick up something much earlier in life.

For the most part people will not be upset with you if you riffle though their house picking up everything that you find.

Most doors are indestructible, even high explosives can not do more then scratch them.

And she is almost always in a diffrent castle.

This is true. It is sad that more airliner crash victims didn't think to carry a #9 button on their persons at all times.

I learned that one guy can rule a civilization for 6000 years, and has absolute control over every single thing that happens.

You can also sit on the wing of a raptor and fly around and not fall off.


(I really did learn what GNP was back when Civ I came out, and how far it was from new york to london from aerobiz)

If you shoot someone but only wound them, if you lay low for a few seconds they'll say "It must be nothing", lose interest in finding you, and go back to hanging out. - FarCry

just how are these animals surviving in the wilderness with such handicaps?

If you're about to be bitten by a turtle, you can probably beat him by jumping on top of his shell with both feet.

If you jump from an incredible height, you will die upon impact. If, by some chance, you land in water, no matter how shallow, you will live and take zero damage.

i think if the water is shallow in far cry, you take some damage.

You take fall damage if the water is too shallow in WoW too.
