    I don't mind an updated look, but they don't look quite that wizard-y now. Needs moar robes in addition to what's there.

    And the heads of those LTs look humongous in comparison to the rest of their bodies.

    Why stop there? You get 500 cuts per blade.

    We've got the mask pattern already, just so ya know.

    2.) Left and Right - Single & Double Off Center Pin Stripe (Chest, Pants, Boots)
    a.) I know that's more like 4 options (Left Double Pin, Left Single Pin, Right Double Pin, Right Single Pin) The possibilities for different pin stripe options could be quite vast, as I can think of several off the top of my head. (Lightning, Flames, Circuitry, Shred, Dotted, Dashes, Tribal, & Celtic)

    Lastly it would be nice if we could choose to have the chest detail smaller and on one side of the chest or the other. Kinda like how Jackets have it, only upgraded with an option to be on left or right side.
    To be honest, it'd be nice if we could see Chest Detail icons on Jackets and such at all. Not only are many difficult to see even in the costume creator, but they also have a bad habit of clipping through the jacket/robe itself.
  6. Ahh, Photon; if you want to give that char a bit more of an Arachnos styling, you can try rerolling him as Safety Operative Steve...

    Seems like they fell in love with the look of Ascension armor and tried to duplicate it.
    Just speculating, but I'm guessing the by the way the design process works, the concepts for both costume sets were probably settled on at around the same time.

    The issue seems to be that your version of 'quick and to the point' is of you making fairly strong and broad assertions that aren't backed up by any kind of explanation of your opinions.

    To most folks, that just looks like trolling and/or unwarranted stubbornness.

    I think my framerate is going to choke on that map. We'll see.

    what

    Someone showed me some angel critter from the Diablo series. I'd have to guess it was close? I haven't seen the Celestial wings in action.

    The CoL might be borrowing some folks for training from the Resistance. DeVore works for both, after all.

    There are some differences; they're supposed to look more sinister and corrupt than Primal DE, if you can believe it. I can't seem to find the design article on that, though.

    Not entirely sure I like the visuals of Time Manipulation. Just looks a bit generic to me.

    Defence set looks generic, IDF will be useful.
    What's 'generic'?

    They look like that because they're energy wings made of light, not Talsorian wings. Maybe Talsorian wings will come some other time.

    Well, I was just trying to include stuff that existed before the Praxidae incident.

    Throw Lady Grey in there, too.

    So seeing people say "Oh, I'm a dragon and have been around active for 1000 years" has always made me go... o.O

    Or other such D&D style creatures that have been walking about and living in the world.
    Magic and such never really died out, per se, but they were nowhere near as prominent until Cole and Richter cracked open the Well on Praxidae. Before then, the Oranbegans were still trapped in their city under the east coast, really raunchy, city-wide raves were being held in western Europe, mystical priests wandered the world, banishing evil, some wierd fish cult popped up from time to time in various parts of the world, Union soldiers were fighting mad cultists and some nutty Prussian royal fought General Sherman for kicks.

    Man, now you can't swing a dead catgirl around without smacking some fallen deity from another plane or a wizard who's a living conduit to the thaumaverse or something.

It wants a champion (possibly to defend itself against The Coming Storm ) and has chosen Cole, giving him huge amounts of power. I believ the current plan (as decided by Prometheus and Ouro) is to defeat Cole, showing The Well it made the wrong choice and hopefully... um... shocking it back to sanity? I'm not too clear on that bit.
    The Well currently chooses Tyrant as its champion and defender because it believes him to best represent its own interests. Usually, that's just power, but right now, it's also unification by any means to stand against a great threat; in Tyrant's case, it's Hamidon and, to some extent, human nature itself; in The Well's case, it's the Coming Storm.

    According to Prometheus, Tyrant is really just a chump compared to whatever the Coming Storm will bring. The current objective of the supers of Primal Earth is to strike down Tyrant, lowering his status in the eyes of The Well, and hopefully encouraging it to choose a new champion. The objective after that is to defeat all of The Well's successive choices until it finally gets the picture and chooses the defenders of Primal Earth as its champions; we have to look after our own interests, after all.

    Only when The Well relents and gives us full access to its power without forming a direct link with it will we actually have the power we need to fight the Coming Storm.

    Hrm.

    But that's kinda what they were before that whole issue with Hequat and Mu, right?

    For example, Requiem himself compared to a high-level 5th Column soldier.

    Ridiculous.
