It was Friday, when I strolled through the city with my Skyrim Collectors Edition. Me and a friend who did also get Skyrim at the same store went to a Café to have some breakfast.
The waiter spotted my Collectors Edition and asked "Oh, Skyrim.. what was that again?". So I explained him short and briefly how it was TES5, the successor to Oblivion and that it was gonna be epic, and I mentioned dual wielding.
He awkwardly stared at it and mumbled something like "Oh well, you know, I′m more the WoW-guy...". At this point I already shifted into "dont even bother"-mode, but I didn′t even have to respond.
He kinda went nuts all of a sudden and the most ridicculous conversation ever ensued: "Isn′t that the game where you just run around with a shield like an idiot all day?" [notice how he asked me about what the game even was a minute ago]
I tried to remain polite and just said "Lol, no, that′s not really what it is about...".
Then he went totally ballistic: "Oh my god, what a trash, I mean really, what a piece of garbage, thats not even a real game! CoD, MW2, Minecraft 2 (what the heck did he even mean?), BF2, THESE are real games!"
"Seriously... what a scrap!" -walks off shaking head-
Later, after we ate and he came back for us to pay, without any provocation, he started again:
-shakes head- "Oh my god, what a trash..."
"I mean you don′t even do anythig, all you do is runnig around with a shield all the time!"
"Lol, it′s basically just MW3 with a shield!"
I almost bursted out laughing when he said that, It is probably the most epic thing I had heard in weeks. I tried to control myself and just went out with a quiet "troll harder".
Needless to say, I didn′t tip him.
And this is the story of all my signatures from now being "Skyrim: Its′s basically just MW3 with a shield."
I would consider siding with your waiter. After all, WoW have a significantly better UI than Skyrim.
