There are survivors?

Excuse me:

Heroes passing through walls is so unrealistic,it should be changed.Only shooters that lob their shoots,like archers and inquisitors,and those that are very tall like titans should be able to hit behind the wall.Chaining is illogical in the real world.A single peasant stealing retal from 1000 dragons is illogical.A single sprite ocupying the same space as million of squires is illogical.

There,no more survivors

It just keeps being repeated .... logic in games is a transient thing, there one minute and gone the next, and that's the way it should be, especially in fantasy style games!

There are three valuable properties that formal systems can have:

* Consistency, which means that none of the theorems of the system contradict

* Soundness, which means that the system's rules of derivation will never let you infer anything false, so long as you start with only true premises. So if a system is sound (and its axioms, if any, are true), then the theorems of a sound formal system are the truths. All of the theorems of a system that has no axioms are its truths and sometimes the truths of such a system are called 'logical truths.' (Note that if a system is not consistent, it cannot be sound. This is because a contradiction is always false, so if two theorems contradict at least one is false.)

* Completeness, which means that there are no true sentences in the system that cannot, at least in principle, be proved using the derivation rules (and axioms, if any) of the system.

Logic can only help a fantasy world. It should only be sacrificed if there's no other feaseable way.

Something can be completly logical without being real.

just because something is feasable doesn't make it the "best way" - I would go for the best way regardless of logic, in a fantasy environment

No, just a good way. Being logical makes it the "best way".

not necessarily, but let's just agree to disagree

If you're talking a game, then i agree, ease of gameplay comes first. If you're not then i've always liked the ones that made more sense.

Feasibility applies differently there, don't it.

yeah, but logic is still negotiable IMO in these games

So,the real world is illogical.Its not complete because there are things that cannot be proven using its axioms
