NCSoft has a new trailer for Dungeon Runners that explains one of the game’s newer features: the “Bling Gnome.” This is actually something I wish more RPGs in general had. The Bling Gnome is a little companion that follows you around and converts items into gold. Basically, he saves you from having to trudge all the way back to town to sell excess inventory during a quest from time to time. And for some reason, NCSoft decided to put this trailer together in the same style as a used car ad.

Hahaha. It’s hot outside. My feet hurt. I’m thirsty.
I love this ad. It’s pretty amazing, think that I’m gonna have to start playing this game again.
Meh.
Any game which pretends to be free but actually is unplayable unless you pay is not something I want to get into.
eg, Oh cool! I’ve found this awesome super-rare equipment! But I can’t put it on because I am not a member…
