What drew you to 8-Bit Theatre? - Page 53

Winza · 05-31-2007, 11:37 AM

A gaming pal of mine that I use to play Shadowrun with told me about it when I started talking about how much I loved the final fantasy series. He started quoting Fighter (admittedly, not the best character to quote when you want to impress someone... lol) and then talked about how BM was psychotic and trying to kill everyone else. I had to read it at that point!

That was about the middle of 2003, maybe early 2004. Since I started reading it, I've told everyone else I meet about it. It's spreading like a chucklarious (chuckle mixed with hillarious) virus among all my friends and family!

I only just as of the day of this post, just joined the forums... all that wasted time...

I found it while editing/reading Wikipedia. In the Red Mage article (now moved to an article about FF jobs in general) it said something like "Red Mage is also the name of a character in [[8-Bit Theater]]." I saw it several times before:

1. Clicked on the link, checked the external link to nuklearpower.com.
2. Check the website for a few minutes, never found the time to actually start reading the comic.
3. 2. several times
4. Read the first few episodes.
5. Saw the sentence mentioned earlier again, followed the links, started to actually read the comic.
6. Throughout a few days (since I would read them very late), I finally got up to the latest episode (they were entering the Castle of Ordeals).
7. I checked out the forums every now and then, but as soon as Red Mage got his Class Change (the episode where he is about to cast Hadoken), I read the forums regularly.

I heard about it in passing during a conversation with a friend.

It was sheer boredom.

Seriously.

I started reading webcomics in general back when I had a data entry job, one of my first. I put the paper in the scanner, hit "Scan," and while it shifted through fifty pages of burn documents and other such useless government documents, I would alt-tab over to webcomics.

I actually started reading Bad Mushrooms - and liked it! - before VG Cats was formed. Oh yeah, let's hear it for seniority!

When I got all hooked onto the forums all those years ago - back when the people I looked up to (shiney and Lockeownzj00) still posted - 8Bit became crucial to my daily life, if only because of it's connection to NPF.

Newgrounds. Read the webcomic and liked it better.

I remember seeing it on Newgrounds and said "Sounds sweet". Read the forst 20 and got bored. The nafter 2 years I got back and read it all. Now I'm in love. <3

LuciLano · 09-08-2007, 02:33 PM

Well a friend of mine said I should read it since we both loved FF. I tried it out and loved it, but hated waiting for the next episode, lol. I stopped reading for a couple months at one time so I could read them all at once

I watched the Flash series on NG a few years (1-2) back.

I still ask Raptor Jesus to let that flash series be continued... Every night..... Twice
