Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
I know my mom told me that if I don't have anything nice to say I shouldn't way anything at all, but I find these last two comics (#21 and #22) to be rather offensive both IC and OOC. Both of the comics are offensive to women, and the last one manages to insult followers of both the Karavan and the Kami, as well as directly insulting at least 3 out of 4 races in the game (I can't tell if that one guy is supposed to be Matis or Tryker). What disturbs me most is that this is now what people see when they first arrive at the ryzom website.
Ryzom is a great game. I've played for a long time, and I plan to continue doing so, but if those comics were my first impression of this game, I think I might not even make a trial account. |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
I'm female and I find #21 and #22 funny. :)
I do agree somewhat, however, that it may not be best to have stuff like that on the front page. |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Offensive to fictional races and religions? You have to be kidding! :D (recalls innumerable terrible elf / dwarf / halfling etc. jokes) Offensive to women, maybe so, I imagine many might tut disapprovingly, but as regards Ryzom's frontpage did you not notice Nevrax's own Jena?
Edit: Come to think of it, haven't noticed Jena in a while. Is she still en route or just lost? |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
sex sells, despite the best efforts in the world to be nice and PC that remains a fact.
Plus I think the last two have been the best :) |

Yes, from a roleplay point of view. Particulary for Trykers... always being dismissed as halfwit halflings. It gets old. |

They only get dismissed like that after the Trykette wins the argument ;-) |

Nope Im a fyros ! And please dont confuse insulting with teasing thx ! May i add that untill now ALL races have been 'insulted' as u say in ALL the strips ! it's just comic teasing that's suppost to make us all laugh. Oh and if it can make u feel better i wrote in the email that the photos of Jena were not necessarily to be naked pics, but bikini and such :) If i manage to write a comic strip that doesnt make fun of any races ill open a bottle of champagne for achieving the 'almost impossible unless not related to game' |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
I find that the latest two comics are out of place.
Remember this game is rated as a 12, you need to make sure that the content on the front page is inline with that age restriction. Don't get me wrong, they are funny and I enjoyed them - but they shouldn't be on the front page of this site. |

Story: Comic Strip - 25: Goodbye (by Alix)
As explained previously here, Alix joined us to run a comic strip series, originally for two weeks. This period had been extended already as he enjoyed drawing these strips along with you; but after more than a month, the series is finally coming to an end, as he is going to leave us this week. Today's strip is thus closing the comic strip series. Alix is now using his last days to rework the few black & white strips to colour them. Before he leaves, here's a message from Alix: "Hello everyone, :) My internship is ending soon and I thank you for your support regarding my comic strips. I'm starting to better understand your impatience about the Ring, and I must say Ryzom is really a great MMO. Maybe one day we will meet again and I hope you will have many new ideas... ;)" Many thanks to Alix for his great work, and to all of you for these funny stories. :) And, thank you Meloner for today's story! |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
May I be the first to say thanks for all the comic Alix *huggles*
Good luck in whatever you do next! |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora

|
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
I rather enjoyed the comic strips Alix produced, and I'm sorry to see him go. I do hope he can return to us soon :D
Take care, Alix, and God bless you in all you do :) |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Take care, Alix. Was really pleased with my comic btw, really good job on it. :D
|
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Aye, I enjoyed the comics a lot too and will miss you Alix. Meloner, please start drawing as well as writing :)

Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Speaking of old topics...
Does someone still have these comics around somewhere? Would love to see them again :D |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora

Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Allright, thx Jayce :D

Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Awesome ! There were some I had never seen before.

Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
The old treasures related to Ryzom shouldnt be so easily almost lost... i remember those comics still being briefly available on main site when i joined.
The wiki has archived the comics as well, here. If anyone finds/has something that isnt available on the web anymore, feel free to ask the wiki to have it on there :) |
Re: Story: Comic Strips Starting Today - 01: Ora
Ehm, *coughcougcough*
