Chyll

meh.

Rumors and whatnot.

Odds are everything is contingent on on how healthy F2P is financially, so far away from any reasonable shutdown intentions.

(Frankly, as an MMO it has been solid and normal in terms of the overall industry. They just had over zealous expectations of reaching WoW heights - and that frankly was unrealistic from the start - and rushed the product.)

You know, I've never played them either. Never even tempted.

But I agree with you, the visual of the colonial look I've seen is intriguing.

Impie or Pub?

Soonish... November?

All my characters are on Shadowlands, unfortunately.

Wait. What? There's a new Primeval?
*runs off to Google*

I didn't understand that at all, other than... he has to get home to momma for the big reveal you already figured out.

I particularly liked the road with a fresh coat of asphalt and paint next to the train going down the tracks.

I just may have made appropriate (inappropriate?) comments at the time....

And I was the opposite, tried both and stuck with TOR. I'll admit though, that as a game I liked TSW better. But TOR was so much a sequel to KotOR that I have to play out the story there, and then I'll probably wander back to TSW.

Also, thanks all for the added posts here. These have helped keep TSW on my radar.

Granted, I'm just thinking that in the effort to organize the chaos would have ruin a lot of the possible knowledge sources and many of those with the technical skill. Frankly, things look pretty cushy for what I figure post-15 years after a blackout should look. What, 5 billion dead? Conditions would be brutal.

Yeah, I'm really not buying it much in that regard.

You are right.

But,...

After a few years of starving and killing and plague what and who would really be in place organize anything like that? Some, sure, but I think chaos would reign and a lot of books and things will be lost and destroyed. It would be a bumpy ride before 'tech' started to re-appear.

This in no way to say I think the show is getting things right, mind you. Just at the start I think there are too many people living near urban ruins in this show... but that's just me.

Of course they could have.
Obviously, negotiations did not meet their requirements to do so.


I am in no way surprised. But I am incredibly unhappy all the same.

Yeah, she's insanely naive for having lived through what should have been 15 years of near hell.

Hadn't thought of that... interesting idea.

I always liked that movie.
I never thought of it in relation to Revolution.

What I did think of was The Emberverse series by S.M. Stirling, as on the surface it is the same premise, all electricity up and quits. A lot more emphasis on living through that first 15 years of collapse - starvation, plague, violence, etc.


Though, he covers that it also includes combustion engine requirements an even steam power can't quite get up to snuff... complex, and the cause is wrapped up in the mythology of it all so not worth getting into... Fun read, though.


Oh, and the show is... passable at present.

The girl is annoying. I have also been irritated by fat ppl still being around. And the modern Walmart shelf crossbow that miraculously continues to work after 15 years... Let alone t-shirts that haven't worn out and still fit after 15 years?

It does show signs of promise, though, that if given a chance it may come around into a winner. I'm planning to give it a few more episodes.

I said to my wife during the episode that I thought it looked like the same place. I'll have to tell her I was right.

Much appreciated. I hunt high and low for that, but it is in the "Chyll won't look her place" )or bydandii, since Chyll is apparently taken in every other game out there,... who knew?)

Exactly

Ah, then I have a theory that I will remain patiently quiet with...

I've hunted for how to turn that off with little luck. If you could share the magic, I'd enjoy the visual element of the game play a lot more... and maybe get to focus more on whether I think the game is any good.
