    Personally, I just pretend that there was only the first Highlander, and none of the other dreck that goes by the name Highlander ever happened. The first movie was very well done, and had a satisfying ending. There never should have been any sequels, etc.

    As for this reboot? Meh. I probably won't see it. Exactly what new or different take are they going to bring to the story that won't actually diminish it?
    I pretty much do this myself. The cartoon was pretty cool though.

    That is all.

    It's not our fault that you say everything wrong.

    Well, they might have transfered him over to live Euro server maintenance, which would increase the staff there to two.

    The Hamidon suggestion does explain a thing or two, but then why are its tentacles outside the sonic barriers?
    Maybe Hamidon's gotten a wee bit bigger since Cole fought him last.
  14. I found Citadel to be rather... meh. It's neither exciting or annoying. It's just flavorless, and there's a big bondage fetishist at the end. Bah.

    Y'know what task force was really annoying and needs revamping? Synapse. Dear god... cloned map after cloned map of clockwork for hours and hours. AAAAGGHHH!
  15. I still haven't teamed with Golden Girl. I'm not sure to either be grateful for that fact or that I might actually be missing out. She sounds to be a decent player at the very least.
  16. Yeah, I've bugged this a couple times. They attack each other in every mission they appear in now.

    Didn't go redside, but if it's any consolation it's makes even less sense when you go blueside.
    AHA! So you admit the writing doesn't make sense!

If you believe in Cole's ideals, then you can try to assume his mantle for yourself. But loyalty to him isn't welcome.

    That's how I understand both the end of the Loyalist storyline (when you go to Primal Earth) as well as the rest of the story. I don't disagree with your desire, but I do disagree with your contention that the devs haven't sufficiently explained this in the story.
    I can tell you haven't played to the end of the Powers Loyalist storyline, and its funny because I posted the text from it earlier in this thread. At the end, you actually prove you're more loyal to Cole than Praetor Berry. Cole wanted the Olympian project cancelled and Berry was like "NO! SCIENCE WILL BE DONE! SCREW COLE'S ORDERS!!!" and then you rat him out to Cole.

    Then, presuming you take the obvious choice to go to the Rogue Isles, who meets you on the other side???




    Viridian.

    He says we'll have great fun together. So you level up through the content, but then suddenly at level 50 you have "fight the greater evil" task forces that pit you suddenly against Cole and his Praetors. Huh??

    Now since this is more an RP issue than anything else (and really, I don't think Cole wants to give power to anyone he can't just rip it away from, so since he can to his Praetors, and not likely to you the player character...why would he...when in an RP perspective, while you may be loyal, Cole will never truely trust he can hold total control over you).
    Dude can't even keep total control over Praetor friggin' Berry and you're saying he'll favor Berry but not any of our characters? Ridiculous.

    Pretty much they're telling us that this is no longer a game about options. Welcome to the anti-Cole Train railroad.

    Genocide is implied to be a villain's first act upon becoming God of the Universe in the "Multiple Selves" villain morality mission.

    And really, side-switching's most common use is to turn redsiders blue? Really? Do you have numbers and hard sources to prove this?

    Huh, I started here two years ago and as far as I've noticed, it's always been like that. People in general are just jerks.
