Cracked reviews Warcraft.
At the very least, I was hoping to see a scene where the heroes realize they have absent-mindedly trapped their army behind a wall of farmhouses, forcing themselves to have to blow up one of their own buildings and waste precious resources just to escape. I would've been happy with any kind of strategizing at all, even a single scene where a blacksmith agonizes over whether to upgrade the ground units' attack or hit points would've satisfied me. But it never comes up. Not once. That's right: This is a Warcraft movie with absolutely no math.

Hahahaha.

I like the idea of Eve Online more than I suspect I would actually enjoy the experience. I actually gave up on it very early because the font sizes were so small I literally could not read the text without giving myself headaches. But it's fun to hear about. There have been studies by economists written about Eve Online's economy, which I find hilarious. ^_^ (I think you can probably find some of them, or articles about them, if you Google.)
