Sheer ridiculousness

Post by Rogue 9 »

Man, this site is one of the richest I've seen in a while. This guy speculates how the world would have changed had superbeings like the ones in comic books had existed since about 1880. He puts World War One happening in 1905, the Second World War ten years later in 1915, and a third about where our WW2 happened. Nuclear weapons by 1915, antimatter bombs used to end his WW3 through bombing all the Axis capitals, supersonic flight invented by the Japanese in 1921, and a bunch of other stuff. And all due to the presence of an unspecified number of supermen. :roll: So, if anybody feels like a laugh, go ahead. I got sick of it by the time the first artificial satellite was launched in 1933. :shock:

Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot. Over.

Given it's because of an RPG...why not.

This type of bizarre speculation is no different if he said what if D&D is replacing the Roman era what might've happen.

I hardly think he wants it any more serious then that...

Sometimes we can choose the path we follow. Sometimes our choices are made for us. And sometimes we have no choice at all

Accelerated increase in technology/world hostility would only be due to one or more Dr. Manhatten-type entities.
