The irony is crippling. You waste your life trying to play a game about controlling another persons life.

I fail to see where the irony is.

My guild in WoW wants me to get the gear for my second talent tree (Which is ranged DPS, my main is melee). The problem is, getting a full set of gear would take so much time that i don't even feel like i want to bother getting it. That along with Mist of Pandaria coming out in a month.

It is arguable that any game allows you to take control of another person's life, sure The Sims may focus on finer points but in games such as COD or Madden '12 or even Minecraft you take control of a person's life, only in a specific time of their life mind you, but you control them nonetheless.
He means it's funny how your playing a game about making somene else go through their (somewhat) realistic daily routine and lifestyle while you are not doing that in your own life.

TL;DR: Ever wanted to play a game that required large amounts of time and you just didn't want to spend all that time?

On that topic; Yes, FF7-9. And many PC games.

I'm sorry, that isn't irony, this is irony.


Actually yes, by definition, that is in fact irony.

Basically I wanna play but my laziness doesn't want to have to go through all the setup to get to the playing part. You guys ever have a similar situation?
