Indeed, the point of a game is to have fun.

If that fun is derived from min maxing and achieving the most competitive build of a char from a system then thats equal to someone who enjoys the storytelling element.

As someone who enjoys both aspects, its always puzzled me why people argue over it :P

It's the same as why people go to war.

It's just an excuse to fight where they could just make a complicated peace treaty.

Fighting is just so much simpler. (and more fun :D)

It's true. It's much easier to shoot people in tc towns than try to get acquainted with them.

Based on evidence collected from various sources by trustworthy attendees it is undisputed veritability that the land ravaged by atomic warfare which caused extreme change of the ecosystem and environmental hazards can be considered unpleasant, rugged and unforgiving.

Once you start solving drama between players, you will know what I mean.

The wasteland is dangerous. And very dangerous when we meet :)

if i might jump in here,  concerning people geting wasted by high level characters without any provocation whatsoever;  i think this might be the first game ive seen where the setting reflects that attitude towards the weak. 

           isnt that what makes post=apoc so cool?  psychotic assholes pillaging and plundering just because they can?  post apoc earth is just armed trolls running amok anyways, right?

Post apo is also about communities and rebuilding.

Post apoc is also about looking for food and water.  Looking for medicines to fight off infection.  Its also about slavery so peoples characters should be enslaved and their sole objective when logging on is to be another persons bitch.

Seriously, a game is supposed to be fun for EVERYONE, not for a niche group of folks who think trolling and griefing is the "end game" experience.
