    But that excuse can also be used about almost all the major villains in the game - like Tyrant doesn't personally do a single thing in the whole Praetorian storyline until the Magisterium Trial, but the storyline is full of, and driven by, the stuff that he's ordered other people to do.
  2. I wonder if the invasion mobs will be Coralax or Arachnos?

    Actually, if you're posting, then yes, you do.
  6. I think that there's a bit of perspective being lost here
  7. I'd like them to revisit rooting sometime - adding a run and gun element to the game play would be fun, I think.
  8. These frenzied code scrambles are quite fun
    Although I'm not going for this one, as I have no use for it, and it'd be selfish to waste a code when someone who actually has a use for it wants it way more.

    I hate social media because I can't go ANYWHERE without someone trying to shove it in my face. (Also one of the reasons I hate religion, but that's an entirely different topic.)

    I hate social media because I find it morally repugnant to cash in on the details of someone's personal life. Like reality TV wasn't bad enough in that regard?

    I hate social media because it does a lot of things that anywhere but the internet would land you in prison for voyeurism/stalking/harassment/etc.

    I hate social media because it hands a microphone to a lot of people who really should have their tongues cut out instead of giving them an audience.
    You should blog about it.

  15. I think they'd be more likely to look at some kind of new system of personal player housing rather than touch the base system.
  16. One of the of the perks of being an "old" game is that we've gone way past the wild and desperate nerfbat swings that follow the launch of an MMO

  18. Generally, if you're unsure what you get for free, the free option offers the launch game from 2004, with a lot of the QoL upgrades from the past 8 years.
  19. This is from an interview that Protean gave shortly before the launch of GR:

    Quote:
    "I don't want to give too much away, but Dr. Aeon and I had a lot of fun writing in some familiar faces from Paragon City and the Rogue Isles. Some of them are obvious, but others come completely out of left field. I think the players will really get a kick out of it, especially when they find out who Mr. G is (for anyone familiar withIssue 17: Dark Mirror), or discover the true power behind the Syndicate."
    So Mr. G is a counterpart to a Primal character, but it's possibly a little left field, which could easily cover the Center.

    Actually, I'm pretty sure that's just a double flashback - the way it's presented, the 2 casino sections happen together, followed by the 2 warehouse sections.

    I thought that the solo-only missions were a bigger problem for yellow side teaming?

    Yeah, but that'd still be extra money for the game - if a Steam version was attracting new players, but only half the money they spent in the market went to NCSoft, that'd still be some extra cash.
  23. I don't see how using other openings to get the game to new players would be bad?
