Statesmans dead ->

Please use this thread to express your thoughts on Statesman's death, and feelings related to telling us about it:

I'm fairly suprised that There were no post about the announcment of the demise of the icon of CoH. I saw it coming and am not suprised in the least. Though I mostly just wish they had left it as a surprise in the SSA. I'm actually mad enough about it to stop playing. What kind of jerk tells the end of the story, their OWN story for that matter.

If I went to watch a old yeller and the director walked up and said: "old yeller dies at the end" I would probably punch him in the face.

I hate being told the ending. I'm not allowed to use words that describe my distain for CoH franchise. GRRRRRRRRR ... PUNCH.

Arachnos would be defending them BTW.

Add what thoughts you'd like

To be fair, they didn't tell you the end. They said statesman dies in part 5. That's not the end.

Since you don't seem to have an actual suggestion, I have one for you.


'I don't like the look of it at all,' said the King: 'however, it may kiss my hand if it likes.'
'I'd rather not,' the Cat remarked.
'Don't be impertinent,' said the King, 'and don't look at me like that!' He got behind Alice as he spoke.
'A cat may look at a king,' said Alice.

Hey, thanks for ruining the ending OP.

My thoughts?

Way to ruin it for others via your post title while simultaneously complaining about the story being spoiled for you? =/

It's not the ending. It's a little over halfway.

Also: The OP didn't spoil it, Zwillinger/web team/devs did. On the launcher, on the website, in the two announcement forums. There are also (I think) four threads regarding it in General Discussion.

Snape killed Dumbledore.

Bruce Willis' character is actually dead.

Kevin Spacey's character is Kaiser Soze.

It's her head in the box.

I didn't realize there was one made. thanks

To those that this [somehow] spoiled it, that was not my intent and I apologize. This was one of the few times I read the NCsoft launcher as well and what a time to start. I was only looking for the WTF and saw it. upon reviewing the launcher, it doesn't say who it was, just that it's revealed. Again, not my intent. Though as the person I quoted stated, I wasn't the first. I just happened to be the one you saw.

C'est la vie. Don't worry about it now, just be more mindful in the future.

At least to your OP: I saw it too, and have seen them laying the seeds of this for a long time. Watch for Hero-1 to step up into Statesman's shoes, IMO.

Am I disappointed in the reveal? Sorta, but I can see why they chose to reveal it. Sometimes the drama isn't about the death; it's about the path leading to that death. There've been plenty of death reveals in the past in literature (classical, modern, comic book, etc) that follow this same route.

Personally, I would've kept it secret. Then again, I've been wanting to write a fan fiction/AE series called "The Death of Atlas". Again, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey.

LOL ... this became a weird thread.

If you're trying to ruin movie ending for me. it won't work. I don't watch movies.

Why you may ask?

This is ironic coming from a heavy gamer: But, I think it's a waste of time.
