The FUQU is where we get to ask Nick a bunch of questions no one sent in. It's exciting stuff! So instead of wasting time, let's get to it!
Question: Why should I spend my valuable time reading your waste material?
Ah, we're starting off with a good ol' blow to the face! Well. I dunno. To my knowledge and experience, there aren't any other sites that try to address this issue head-on. The issue of games as art, I mean. Most people are willing to concede that games are entertainment first, since it's run by an industry, and no capitalist industry is going to produce art. But there are plenty of analogies to other art forms. The movie industry, the music industry, illustration, things like that. Every art form is overrun by non-art, but we all recognize the capacity they have for expression. We just don't think that about games. We say "They're there for fun, and that's it." I don't think that's healthy.
Question: The location isn't updated very regularly. Why is that?
Because... well. Explaining that means getting into personal details no one should need to know. But I'd like to update regularly. However, keep in mind I don't get paid -- by anyone, notice there are no ads -- to do this. So despite having a tremendous passion for it, I can't let it be first priority.
I have a question, if I may.
Go for it.
What're we here for? You know, us copyrighted game characters.
um... Well, to show respect for the terrific companies and games that produced you, of course!
All right... But, I mean, why do we...
Any more questions, Peach?
Yes. This question comes from nobody, who lives in not anyplace:
YUR SITE SUX!!!
...
Um...
Ha ha! We're just teasing you! But really, one last question. What's in store for the location?
Ah, the big one. Well... I like to make games, not just talk about them. It's a bit hard to just spit those out. Plus, I want the site to almost live, and I don't yet have the expertise to really do that. But things like that -- similar to the recent change of the site design -- will happen. It just... may take a while.
Well. That's it. Thanks for reading the FUQU, everyone! You don't have anymore questions, right Rush?
Nope. That was all I had. And you still didn't ans...
Good night, everybody!
Wait a minute! You can't just...
010001000010111101001000101101101110100!!!
WarMECH, no! You broke another wall!
Until next time!
