Going Rogue vs. Going Rouge

Okay folks. Let's clear some things up.

Going Rogue
<ul type="square">[*]You can switch loyalties, from good to evil, or vice versa.[*]You can be a spy, using your abilities to work undercover.[*]You can be a vigilante. You don't feel that heroes are working on the right jobs, so you take it onto your own shoulders to do the jobs that need to be done, by whatever means necessary.[*]You can sommon demons. [*]You can dual-wield pistols. [/list]
Going Rouge
<ul type="square">[*]You can don a fabulous costume that makes you appear to be the opposite gender.[*]You can use your fame and over-the-top personality to garner the attention of millions. You know, like Liberace, Prince, or the Sham-Wow guy.[*]You can be anything you want to be, as long as it gains you the adoration of millions. And interviews. There's no such thing as bad press. You are, after all, a superstar. [*]You can summon your loyal entourage. These merely weep and scream "LEAVE BRITTANY ALONE!" at their foes.[*]You can dual-wield your cellphone and teacup chihuahua. [/list]
*sigh*

Get it? Rogues are those who've switched loyalties. Rouge, on the other hand, is makeup.

Class dismissed.

theme song for going rouge.

Get that song out of my head!

We get it, you don't like that people misspell.

I thought i16 was Going Rouge, since we'd be able to recolor our powersets.

Well my satin worshiper definitely will have to go rouge. After all think of that fine red satin and then using your rouge to properly enhance yourself and set the mood.

Gods you know as a dyslexic it's sad that I really can't see the difference 90% of the time. I try, but going letter by letter just to see a very poor pun always hurts a section of my brain.

Sometimes I do wonder what it is like to live in a world where such things matter and context is overridden by pedantic nature.

---

And bring a certain bat from a dying franchise into the equation at your own risk.

&lt;QR&gt;

I feel that it's only fair to point out that this was meant to be sarcastic, and even funny. Clearly, as some have posted, that didn't come through the way I intended.

Oh well.

Le sigh.

I have to admit, I'd buy that Going Rouge expansion in a heartbeat.

I consider this to be a useful and entertaining thread, but I want to suggest a few corrections:

[ QUOTE ][*]You can sommon demons.

[/ QUOTE ]

sommon -vs- summon

[ QUOTE ]
"LEAVE BRITTANY ALONE!"

[/ QUOTE ]

Brittany -vs- Britney

I prefer the traditional "Brittany" spelling versus the aberrant, degenerate "Britney" version, but the latter is correct in this context.

Eh, accuracy is important; details matter. We DO live in a world where you will die if you see a sign that says "Mines" and assume it says "Mimes" and walk into a minefield.

I'd actually run away faster from a mime field.

It's not like mines are capable of chasing you. Mimes on the other hand...

Where exactly was this confirmed? I see people say it all the time, and I would like it, but I have never seen any official confirmation of these, or any other new powersets in Going Rogue.

You know, it's easy to get the mimes off you. Just put up an invisible box around them.

Positron mentioned it during some sort of event around the 5th ani. State of the game, it was semi-confirmed with the trailer for GR/I believe a dev post has pretty much stated it but I dont remember who made it.

[/ QUOTE ]

During a fifth anniversary chat session whose transcript appeared via a fan posting on the euro boards, someone had asked about new powersets. Positron made a remark saying something to the effect "I thought I'd already mentioned Demon Summoning and Dual Pistols."

Then the GR trailer went live. And a week later the press release stated that the two characters in the trailer are a pistols blaster and a demon summoning MM, both with shades of grey morality.

Take what you will from that, but it sounds like a pretty solid couple of hints that both pistols and demon summoning are all but confirmed elements of GR.

Actually here is where context matters. See that context part of the line you quoted? If I saw a sign that said "Warning mime field" I would think "You know that's quite silly, we don't really have such a thing as mime fields, they probably meant mines." and even if my cation was wrong I'd be safe, meanwhile the pedantic sort would snort "Well I'm not afraid of mimes" and get his butt blown off.

Yeah context is a great thing.

First link that showed up in google after entering the terms "Going, Rogue, Press and Release." Imagine that!

Press Release

From the third paragraph:

[ QUOTE ]
Going Rogue will also introduce two primary new fictional characters representative of this alignment shift in the game's lore: Maelstrom, a pistol-wielding hero gone rogue, and Desdemona, a demon-summoning villain who has been redeemed. (emphasis added)
