Some Bits: Nelson's weblog

In fantasy games I'm constantly rolling elves because they're the always the gayest looking characters. But I'm astonished at just how gay you look in Lord of the Rings. I already looked pretty awesome at the start, but then I got Quentin Crisp's hat as a quest reward and now I leave whorls of faerie dust as I mince about Middle Earth.

LotRO on the right; on the left is a blood elf from Warcraft for gayness comparison. I love how in online games you can customize how you look with gear. I make a point of hanging on to the prettiest rags even when I've far outgrown them. If you can't play dressup, then what fun is the game?
