This makes you amazing.
-
That is an excellent thing to do with the $15 I won't be spending on this game every month. Thank you for the suggestion.
-
I didn't drink. (I rarely do, though at times like this I wish I did.)
Nor did I eat. Mostly I cried.
So this non-drinker got to deal with dehydration and hangover, same as you.

I've always been thankful for the existence of the UH, letting me expand and showcase my characters (and/or fiction). Now it becomes even more vital, special and precious, as a way of preserving some of what we're about to lose.

So awesome.

*claps softly*
Bravo.

Thanks. -
Thank you for the stories and everything else.

Glad I ran into you in game last night, Roy.
Glad to see you back, even if it's for the end. -
An amazing ride, yes. Eight years for me, almost to the day.
Thank you so much. -
I'll be here until the end, whenever that may be.

I didn't play MMOs, until this game came along.
The long version, from the first/main thread.
Thanks. -

[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: I know it's late, but I wanted to take a moment to say a few words to you here in-game...
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: So for those of you who are not aware, Paragon Studios was closed on Friday (I'm not sure what time zone you all are in)...
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: I just wanted to come here, and tell you guys how amazing you all are. If there ever was a great community to work with, it's you guys.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: Words cannot express the honor, joy, and gratitude I, and everyone else at Paragon Studios feels toward you guys.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: You guys made the impossible possible. You guided us, your creativity inspired us, and your passion drove us to new heights.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: I know you guys are upset, and we're really sad too. I can't answer the questions you guys have, but hopefully someone soon will be able to answer them.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: But I want you all to know that this is not what we wanted. City of Heroes ... you guys, our players, are really special to us.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: I know that I, and everyone who has worked on City of Heroes for the last ten years, from the oldest hands to the newest hires, are truly honored to have been part of this amazing journey.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: Thank you all very much for your kind words: here in game, on the forums, on Facebook, Google+ and Twitter. The outpouring of love, support, and kindness has made his horrible day a little bit easier for all of us.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: I speak for all of us here at Paragon Studios when I say:
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: YOU GUYS FREAKING ROCK AND YOU'RE THE BEST COMMUNITY THERE IS!!!!!!
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: Everyone who has played or worked on City of Heroes and in Paragon has been touched in some way, big or small. Every bit of that which you add to this world is an essential part of the whole, and we would be poorer without it.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: The memories will never go away. Focus on the wonderful things that happened over the last ten years. The amazing people who you've met and played with in this game, and the wonderful experiences you have had.
[Admin] NCsoft_Freitag: I would like to go say a few words on some other servers now, but thank you all for listening. -

I'll be here until the end. After that...
My regular SG/playgroup was already looking at GW2, and I might join them. They're distanced "enough" from NCSoft. I'd been looking forward to WildStar too, but now I'm less certain... not so much in a "boycott" sense, but what's to keep them from doing the same to it someday, even if it's a good game and a (moderate) success?
I've also been playing STO, trying my best to just enjoy the parts of the game I do and hold my nose when it comes to the new owners... but if it turns out that Perfect World does have anything to do with killing my beloved game (through withholding any rights they inherited from Cryptic and/or Atari), that may be the final straw. -
Love you too. Thanks for the review of my arc.

I don't know why, but even though I've already read this thread, seeing the title again made me imagine the CoT joining together with the Freakshow with Arch Mage freak Tanks.

Quote:Nethergoat argues the pessimist/pragmatist position well.
Please note that I am not saying storytime frou frou isn't important to the ambiance of a game world and isn't one factor in the greater accumulation of Player Enjoyment. It is.
But if strict adherence to 'canon' made any difference to the bottom line the devs would pay MUCH closer attention to it.
They don't, so I'm comfortable with continuing to assume that reality skews in favor of my position over the lore contingent.

They Just Didn't Care
