  1. I was born December 16th. Winter is often my favourite time of year because I enjoy the look of fresh snow on my front yard, until the jerk mail-man/paper-boy step all over it and ruin it, lol.
  2. Zecora is my favorite equine in the show. I adore her mannerism's, and the mysterious nature of her. Though, if your going to be strict on the fact it has to be a pony, and not just a equine, then probably Rarity because I can easily relate to her desire to please everypony, striving for perfection of her craft, and constant struggle between her professional life and personal life. Also, she has some of the funniest lines/reactions in the show.
  3. While I haven't played the Sims, since the second iteration. I can try to help you understand through what I remember, and I'm sorry in advance if my knowledge on the game in question is a little outdated. The main reason which I initially was drawn into the series was the sheer amount of control that you got over the life of the people that you created. There was no preset goal, though I guess you could say the goal is to see how long your game can last, instead your given a bunch of tools, and are told to make these people live an eventful life. Now beyond that, most of what happens is within your grasp. You want to make their life absolute torture to live, sure you can do that almost as easily as making it successful. This is also partially what makes Minecraft so popular. Also you never really get overly punished for destruction of your character, unless it's done by lighting the house on fire, the game will retain the property although now it maybe slightly to expensive for your new family to move into. This makes the game very easy to pick up and play. In addition, unlike some games The Sims is very closely related to real life in that the entire concept dressing people up, decorating houses, and living an eventful life is something that people should understand. I'm going to cut myself off there otherwise I'm going to start devolve to rambling like an old crank, lol. Hope it helps, and I think have to try out The Sims again after reading this topic.
  4. I think that little display of "Dark Magic" she probably picked it up due to exposure over the countless millennia from potential threats to her kingdom, and that may of been the best way for her to combat it after the lost of the Elements of Harmony through knowledge of how it works. I mean we have seen Celestia over-powered by Queen Chrysalis. Celestia isn't omnipotent, to rule a kingdom for as long as she has it was probably in her best interests to learn the nuances and limitations of dark magic despite the risk of being corrupted because of it.
  5. This is just off the top of my head Super Metroid Panzer Dragoon, the entire series. Bioshock Shenmue Pier Solar, and the Great Architects Street Fighter 3, Third Strike Fallout, New Vegas Shin Megami Tensei, Devil Survivor Portal Borderlands 2 Now I'm probably forgetting some of them, but those are usually the ones that break my top ten.
  6. Now I may be completely off-base here but, I always saw Starswirl as the MLP's equivalent to William Shakespeare. In that he probably wrote down much of what was commonly being used at the time, and refined it to the point where anyone could of used it. Now this is not to say that he didn't create anything new, but that all of his magic was based off the refining of an already partially understood form of magic. Where as Twilight, defined and understood a form of magic that was previously unharnassable, excluding through the elements of harmony. Now something similar to this is probably why Cadence ascended to the level of Alicorn in that she understood Love better than anyone. On another note, would it really of been that desirable to have a show where all the cast is of the same pony race. While not probably fair to the other mane 6, it does tend to create a more interesting show due to the fact that there is not only personality differences but also physical differences between the mane cast which does create certain limitations between them, and leads to my biggest worry for this new season is that Twilight is going to become nothing more then a walking Deus Ex Machina in the fourth season due to her ascension.
  7. Hello to everyone. While I'm new to the forums I am definitely not a new brony, I've been one since last year. I hope this community is as nice as it appears, and hopefully we can all have some fun together. P.S.: I'm terrible at introducing myself, lol.
