Lame or leet, if your a newbie they will cut off your feet.
All their scripts are needed to shape the world.
Graphic which cover or are taped to the world.
Levels which are the center of the world.
One is not one with out the other.
Each no more importantly done with care and love then the other.
If one is done well and the other is not then your playerworld will be like an abandoned lot.
LoL, that poem is terrible. No offense. But you used the same words to rhyme nearly every line. "world, world, world" "other, other", and the lines didn't even make much sense.

.. That's like running around on graal, screaming "SIGNAS IS A *** ****" in front of staff and such. That would insult him, because, well, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE APPROVAL FROM SIGNAS TO DO SO. >.>

Nu nu nu Ban happy means like trigger happy it doesnt mean ***. So I think Ill write a poem called the ban happy **** but it wont be about signas. btw this was just a sort of joke. I dont really know weather I'm actually going to write it or not.

Nope. Scripts define the world, graphics merely decorate it. All are essential, but only one is truly significant.

That's true. Some things rely on others a bit, but everything ties into scripting somehow.

And what's significant is both of them combined. Of course, you can do powerful stuff with scripting, and you can do alot of things with graphics, but what's going to be the most powerful is both of them combined. One thing is lacking the other. Scripting is scripting without graphics. You can't make polygons and whatnot, because that has to do with graphics. Graphics is graphics, and without scripting, it's just dead. It has no life put into it.

Graphics aren't powerful. They don't define the game, they just provide a pretty front end. If GK had a different tileset, it would still be the same game. The same does not apply to its scripts.

When I refer to graphics, I am talking about images created by artists. Polygons are just mathematical concepts, and their visual representation is generated by the Graal engine.

Without graphic you would have to code your scripts in 000's and 111's...

I'm not saying graphic is better then scripts but its not less essencial to the whole. Without graphic all you have is text and nothing more. Why do you think people first judge playerworlds and games from screenshots? I'm not saying scripts are less essencial but they arnt better or worse then or better then graphic.

There are many text-based RPGs that people play, it does not interfere with gameplay at all... but if there was no programming to it.... Think about that.

If all the game is text then its more like a chat room rather then a game "game." There is nothing wrong with a text chat room game. But without graphic you cant see how to program infact if there was no computer screen you would be stuck using pshicial tools and programming stuff on to micro boards and you have to see things in order to do that so when you see things in life its like graphic. So you could say wind in it self is an npc system and gravity and weather are all npc systems of this game called life. So really both are equally important.

Umm... the text RPG I play is not a chat room. It is a MUD, you level up, explore, gain ranks.
There is no graphics involved, at least nothing that is equally important as the programming that allows me to play it.

Oh, and programming games involves text, not graphics (most of the time).
