Don't you hate it when your weapon doesn't work? Good thing Erin checked it beforehand otherwise when the capturing of the flag commences, they would be one person short on their team...
Other than that, isn't shooting first the "stand your ground" tactic of the capturing of the flag? *plugs in charger for the flame shield*
Davroth: Suicide jokes. And I thought this webcomic couldn't become any more classy.
Aww, poor little thing. You didn't see them coming? I mean, it's not like the FUCKING GODDAMN TITLE indicates that suicide is going to be a subject. Furthermore, how is this a fucking suicide joke? It's Erin killing her fucking in-game character because she's sick of capture the flag.

Damn, seems like I hit a nerve there. There, there. I'll get you some blankets and some hot cacao. It'll be alright, pumpkin. Everything will be alright.

Man, everyone is just so sassy on these forums.
The hilarious part to me is that I never really commented on the quality of the joke. But yeah, rape and suicide jokes are just so damn classy. In fact, they are the pinnacle of comedy. Just ask the aristocrats.
(The comic isn't all that funny because it makes fun of stuff that has been made fun of for years by now. Talk about beating a dead horse.)

I didn't think the joke here was bad. But what "Rape Wolf" joke are you talking about, and how was it not about rape?

It's more a joke about quest requirements, the dickwolf thing is just for exaggerated comedy. Some people didn't care for the comic.

That's what I thought you meant. There really is no comparison here, though, that debacle was a million times worse, the PA guys really could have handled it better. So yeah, this joke was fine for me here because it's all in her head, whereas I had a problem more with how PA reacted than the actual joke itself

I concur, lighten the Heck up. Besides, the joke was funny. ...And now for the appropriate quote: "You magnificent bastard, I READ YOUR BOOK!" =D

Oh man... I've never seen that one. That was priceless... maybe I'll start reading PA again. I can't count how many times I've done something along the same vein... "Oh sorry NPC #6 I only needed 5 of you... have fun being tortured or whatever... I'm sure someone will be by eventually!"
inu-kun: Again, pointing to a trope =/= actual joke.
I think the real joke was the silly way in which the characters managed to justify the trope. Who has ever put that much thought into why space soldiers are running back and forth capturing each other's flags?
Create a running gag where Erin repeatedly tries to kill herself all throughout the comic, giving more credence to the name and giving the reader the impression that it could quite possibly end at any given moment.
...
I said do it!

Or Hannah & Barbara!
Also, I personally find it kinda offensive that you're trivializing the very real slaughter and abuse of horses with that last bit.
I see two things being satirized in today's strip. 1) Why games like these still have a Capture-the-flag mode, and 2) Modern FPS's narratives injecting some forced ethical uncertainty.
