what in the world is up with bardo town???? has anyone played this game?

if you have not played this game and know nothing about it please do not reply, it's very annoying to hear a bunch of non-sense that has nothing to do with my questions. you are wasting your time and mine. thank you. anyway:

it's some weird game that supposedly simulates the after death bardos. i watched a trailer on you tube and it just looks like playing a first person shooter from the late nineties in test mode where there's no enemies and nothing to do. has anyone played the whole thing? what is up with it???? i'm very curious!

Dreamviews is not yahoo answers :F

it's exactly what you said it is, and not much else. it's supposed to be surreal, but isn't very good at that.

it isn't??? oh no! i thought i created an account on yahoo answers! i'm actually posting this on a dream site??? in a section where you are supposed to post things that are kind off the topic of dreams and i somehow picked this proper area instead of trying to put it in one where it would be incorrect? where lots of people are asking lots of random questions about all sorts of topics? where people are giving each other answers about things? panic rises up my spine!!! what's happening?? where am i??? why would i ever think i could ask a question like this on here??? thank you so much for informing me about my internet whereabouts, i get so confused some times. also thank you for your vague and unhelpful answer that clearly is just a mask for the fact that you really just wanted to pick on someone for no reason.

The random questions tend to lead to discussions, not just one post answers ;)

This thread needs more question marks???

and if anyone could tell me about this game we could have a discussion. read some of the topics in here! "what's your favorite movie?" "cat names" "favorite sport". any of these and many more topics could be and more than likely frequently are answered with one post answers. any of them could lead to discussions as well. this is the area of this site to post random things like this. bardo topics are actually directly related to dreaming as well so this definitely belongs on this site. if anyone has played the game i would like to discuss what it is all about and other things about it. in fact when you think about it almost any post can be answered with one post, there are countless questions on this site and a lot of them could be answered with a single post.

go get on "cat names" and criticize that person for asking a question that could be answered in one post: "name your cat mildred". then go hassle the person who made the post of "what's your favorite movie" for the same reason. then go look in the mirror and realize you are hassling people you do not know for things that are irrelevant and actually completely proper for them to be doing.

or enjoy this site the way it's meant to be which is what "cat names", "favorite movie", and i are all doing. or if you just have to hassle people go find threads that are in the wrong sections and talk to them about it. at least then you're doing something that makes sense. find some thread called "what's your favorite food?" in the "attaining lucidity" section that has nothing to do with dreaming and let the writer know that you don't like their improper posting. leave people that aren't doing anything wrong alone.

Yeah, but those are asking opinions, you ask what is up with it, and have you played it. Those can be answer it 3 simple words. Which by the looks for things is, "No, it sucks"

are you kidding me? the posts i referenced could be answered in ONE word. my question was: has anyone played the whole thing? what is up with it???? i'm very curious!

yeah unhelpful people could just say "no it sucks.". but that doesn't answer my questions does it?

i asked "has anyone played the whole thing?" that could be answered with "yes." or "yes and here's what i thought about it..." then i asked "what is up with it???" which is completely open ended, answering that with one word would just mean whoever is answering either doesn't know or doesn't want to discuss it in which case why post at all? then i wrote "i'm very curious!" to imply that i want to hear more about it, and that should also imply that my curiosity is not going to be sated by one word. seriously go answer a question for someone that you have an answer to. you're just hassling me for nothing and you don't even know the answers to my questions so take your off topic garbage elsewhere.

that wasn't sarcasm! i seriously think you would feel more fulfilled and better about yourself if you were being helpful to someone by imparting knowledge you have that is relevant to what their thread is about instead of just bothering me. i like your signature poem by the way.

Ok... last time I be a pain in the ass and off topic.

Its a song, by Avenged Sevenfold.

And I was gonna try it, but for 6.95$, the hell to that.

oh, cool. i've heard a lot of their stuff but never noticed such deep lyrics. i'm impressed. i don't care if we're off topic i just don't want it to be off topic in negative, pointless, false and nit picking ways. like this conversation right now is totally positive. good stuff, not garbage:) what are all the steps in your signature picture? it reminds me of machu picchu but i know that's waaaaaaaaay off.

Actually I think it's Machu Picchu. Not quite sure though, I googled it.

oh wow that's funny. i was afraid i was sounding silly assuming it was anything like that! i've always wanted to go there. the pictures of the guys who found it during the expedition look like indiana jones lol! i watched a documentary though and it takes an absurd amount of time and struggle to get up there.

yeah, but it still be cool as hell to go to it, no matter the effort.

heck yeah! as long as you don't get hypoxia! i wonder what the rain does to it? like how long before erosion has taken it all away? i really want to see the ancient ruins in italy too! they are no trouble at all to get to either. although once you get to them you can't exactly look out at the same unbelievably beautiful vistas you would get with machu...

Probably eroded a lot since it was actually made.

And I've always wanted to go to Greece.... and Sparta :D

yeah sparta would be awesome! you should make a picture of some of their cool ruins your signature picture, that would be way cool! one of the main draws for me is that it's thick with the history of intelligent people and the first philosophers! truly amazing that soooooo long ago people were basically just as smart as we are now in that field. the advancements in thinking now compared to aristotle and plato are minimal if anything really especially if you take out the differences in knowledge based on scientific advancements. we are still asking the same questions: why are we here? what is reality? and many other unanswerable questions. those guys were geniuses and you can visit where they may have walked! truly amazing! not to mention leonidas and all the 300 fellows:)

it's some weird game that supposedly simulates the after death bardos. i watched a trailer on you tube and it just looks like playing a first person shooter from the late nineties in test mode where there's no enemies and nothing to do. has anyone played the whole thing? what is up with it???? i'm very curious!

okay seriously? this is ridiculous. i give up.
