The purest form of the MMO and the destruction of society

There is the design for a game out there that would truly be the end of all other games. It would be perfectly balanced, with content enough for lovers of PvP and PvE to enjoy the game equally. There would be no questions of developer ploys to trick us out of more money, of unequal loot distribution, or of whether it rewarded time or skill more evenly. There would be no option but to play it... which is why we should be happy that it currently only exists as the centerpiece of an SMBC Theater short.

Whether you're a veteran since Ultima Online or still new to MMOs as a whole, you're likely to recognize the behavior on display in this short -- and even if you can guess the joke, the execution is still spot-on. So if you could use a chuckle or two (possibly at your own expense), take a gander past the cut. After all, we can take heart that such an insidious game doesn't actually exist... or does it?
