  1. Good job at ignoring the rest of that post.

    Not really.

    With Arachnos, you can get away with beating up Lord Recluse's legions and even time travel to the future, kill Recluse himself, come back, and threaten him with his helmet.

    Tyrant on the other hand would not be pleased with either.

    +1 for the Patton reference.
  4. As succinctly put, both sides in Praetoria are pretty ****** up. And not a good kind of ****** up where you trip over a rug after having too many whiskey shots, but a "holy hell, this acid trip had me thinking my face was being gnawed off by army ants" kind of ****** up.

    Um... that's not the Going Rogue music. It's a new composition for Freedom. GR's music sounded completely different.

    Me. As I said before, speedruns on any TF always get me killed. Not fun.
  7. Yeah, I know what you're talking about. It's... peculiar, and I'm surprised it's stuck around for so long.
  8. I can actually confirm that the debris left over from Propel is looking like a whole lot less lately, as I have two Gravity controllers.
  9. I hate speed runs. They're stupid. For some reason, I always wind up aggroing the mobs and dying an instant, grisly death.
  10. I like it when mobs get stuck on ledges and suddenly they start dancing around the length of it like some twisted form of Levitate is being used on them. It's also cute when some of them float away up into the air and disappear like Tsoo Ancestor Spirits after they're defeated.

    Yeah, something is very borked.
  11. Hey guys, did you know there's a fetish for this?
  12. I saw a Rikti attack on Champion a couple days ago, so....

    Above is the link to the article where Massively states their wishes for 2012 for this game. Just for those interested
    Wait... he had trouble soloing EBs... on a SPIDER? HAHA! Heh. Heehee.
  14. Yeah, otherwise she wouldn't be around for the Who Will Die? arc.
  15. Well, ain't that weird. I went around checking other servers to see if the character name I wanted was available on them (it wasn't), then went back to Exalted to grudgingly try again. It went through this time. Again, WTF?
  16. Today I tried creating a character on Exalted and when I tried registering, it made some kind of fuss that I couldn't register him because I needed "to purchase costume pieces in the Paragon Market." Problem is, I own all the costume pieces there is currently to own and it wouldn't let me know which one that I needed to "buy." I even tested every damn piece one at a time and nothing changed or removed would allow me to create him!!! What the **** is wrong?

    (And for those with the obvious stupid question, look left at my name and take note of what color it is.)
  17. As are the old Maria Jenkins and Tina Macintyre arcs before their revamps.

    Precisely. Dragon Ball owes a lot to Journey to the West.

    I have to concur. The game is starting to feel quite different now since I first joined and that was almost three years ago.

    I at no point made a claim that my list was complete. But in any case, he seems to have convinced himself that only guys like Superman or Thor are "true" superheroes and no amount of normals in spandex with sticks I post are going to persuade him otherwise.

    Neither Robin nor Batgirl routinely fight with sticks (they just punch and kick a lot). Nice try though.

    And the distinction between truly super-powered heroes and heroes with superior skills within the bounds of normal human limits is important if you want to make any sense out of scenarios where characters are fighting giant robots and cosmic entities like Galactus or Thanos. To say that every character in the DC or Marvel universe is a superhero is a semantic oversimplification that, while true on a superficial level, doesn't help address the essential problem of verisimilitude in situations like the iTrials (TPN and the rock-throwing citizens in particular) where we are expected to accept the absurd notion that normal (but skilled) dudes with sticks can (or should) do diddly squat against huge assault mechs with reinforced titanium armor plating and/or force fields.
    Congratulations, you have just won the prize. And the prize is....

    "3" is too many? With as large as Atlas is? (And despite being one of the smallest zones, it IS large nonetheless.)
