 Things We've Learned From Video Games
I thought it would be neat to share the wisdom we've learned from playing video games.
My offering: Percentile movement speed quints in Riot Games' DotA-inspired game League of Legends have taught me that walking quickly is equivalent to having more time in a day. Put another way, it just makes you generically better at everything.

 Re: Things We've Learned From Video Games
bringing a flying or sliding kick to a gun fight is a valid tactic.

 Re: Things We've Learned From Video Games
Flamethrowers are fun because because watching someone running around in circles while on fire is funny. *has flashbacks to original GTA and GTA London*

* buffalo are easy prey * there are at least four different kinds of ants in any colony * it's quicker and easier to achieve world domination than travel outside of the solar system

All red, green, and blue plants have healing properties.
If you meet a cute girl with a shiny pendant, ring, charm, or necklace.....well it's best for you to just stay clear and not pursue this relationship any further.

Morphine can heal even of the worst kind of fractures. The same goes for Painkillers.

When capturing wild creatures to use as fighting slaves, make sure to weaken them before you throw your brain wash sphere.

Even if you kill an entire city, as long as you hide for 5 minutes no one will care.

If you look down and you can't see your legs, It's not so bad. You can still run.

 Re: Things We've Learned From Video Games
I see what you did there. Also: That backwoods hillbilly village ALWAYS has better equipment available than the huge castle town you just visited--because the village is farther away.

 Re: Things We've Learned From Video Games
Always be cautious before doing something. You never know the consequences of what you have done. Nothing is true, everything is permitted. If you hide in a closet the monsters can't find you. When it doubt, graze as many bullets as possible. Assassins = parkour artists. If you kill a man in front of everyone, so long as it was a polititian that was backtalking you no one will care and peopel will like you more.

Oh yeah, attacks have much greater power if you give them a name to shout out whilst you do them. Sho-ryuuu-ken.
