It's an alternate future in a unknown time. Who knows what's happened in the interim. It's not like we're ever going to actually get to that point, so it's not an issue. Isn't Sister Psyche still in the alternate future in the LRSF?|

If I was an evil overlord bent on world domination, and the last 6 years of time travel told me those two heroes were supposed to be around when I eventually succeeded, and now they're dead, I'd be spending my time trying to bring them back myself.
It's incredibly do-able from a story perspective, and from a gameplay perspective, NO I did not defeat Ms. Liberty to get the Oppressor badge stop saying it it's a lie. I took a heavy, spawned some heroes, dropped manticore, dropped BaBs, then dropped Statesman. I don't even need a heavy to drop Ms. Liberty. I needed like 7 team inspirations to get Statesman. He's a tough *******; I felt good when I beat him. She managed to drop a Grave Knight every other Eagles Claw.
This isn't a nice change.

Which, frankly I think is BS because there's no reason the mission couldn't have taken place at a point in time before Statesman died, or couldn't have kept existing as a Flashback with the changed arc granting a new badge. . |

Just a quick note to say thanks for addressing my (and our) concerns about the badge(s). I think that pretty much takes care of any issues I personally had (not having been able to see the changes to the STF/LRSF myself yet, I cannot comment on them, nor do I know if the Incarnate text seems good yet, as I've not seen it) so I am pleased with this.

See, I'd say this is the same old Positron we've always known. The lowly developer who was in charge of badges before stepping into the driver's seat, the one who didn't want pre-Issue1 characters to have any opportunity to get the Isolator badge despite being rolled before badges were available. The one who said if it ever were made available it'd be made silly-difficult to get just to spite us, then did indeed make it available in Recluse's Victory via singleton spawns on a 1 hour timer. The one who balked at our early requests for badge lists to be organized in some sensible manner instead of the random mess it used to be because it *was* organized to him, in his excel files.|

Posi has historically been... non-customer-service driven when it comes to badges. It always felt to me like this was his little fiefdom, that badges were a toy of his we're allowed to play with under his careful supervision, not a service offered to the playerbase.

I think a more generous interpretation might be that Matt hews closer to old school MMO design, at least where the DIKU model is used. Whether one likes that sort of design or not is more an individual thing.

It sounds condescending while vague enough in its intentions and target I just don't know. Are you commenting on Posi's advancement in the organization or my critique of his badge handling? Something else? Or would you prefer your forum drive-by remain vague?

I was commenting on the fact that the exaggerations about Positron's game design acumen have expanded to the point where it seems almost quaint to only be accusing him of being directly responsible for torturing badge hunters. I mean, given the fact that he's also an emotional bully that single-handedly crushed the architect system, its clear he's come a long way from those days.
