Because it would probably destroy the last great hope we have for western RPG's, just like Bethesda have ruined shit with ESO and Bioware have with TOR.
I wouldn't mind MMORPG's, but whenever I see them made by companies that usually stick to single player RPG's, it's always to the detriment of their single player titles.
We didn't even get a KotOR 3 because Bioware plunged all their efforts into their MMO. It's fucking bollocks. All MMO's are basically the same anyway. Fetch quests and grinding. Endless, ENDLESS grinding. I don't even know why people like them at all.

There might be no better thing in the world than Ricky and Stephen asking Karl Pilkington about literally anything.

I've always wondered how Karl would translate to American audiences, not that he ever says anything hard to comprehend, just that American humour and British humour is often quite different.
Guessing you've seen An Idiot Abroad?

All three series of An Idiot Abroad were fantastic, and were the first time I had heard of Karl. But I listened to the Ricky Gervais Show podcast and the Youtube animated videos are excellent.

I like pc games over console. Links ls was my fave years ago. Shame there are no good golf games for pc like that anymore.
I also still play Runescape on and off. RS3 kinda ruined that for me though and don't play nearly as much.

Yep, it's on regularly here. Funny shit. I just commented to Kitty the other day that I'm glad it features a UK idiot rather than the stereotypical American idiot. That'd be too painful to watch.
Is it just me, or does it seem like Karl's pulled the stick out of his arse and is actually starting to loosen up a bit?
