It's a personal preference, of course, but I'm with Sam. I don't have much use for 10 or 20 more enhancement tray slots, because the enhancements that drop from mob defeats are almost not worth selling - certainly not so much that I care if my tray fills up - and I don't respec enough to care about the difference between pulling out 10 vs 30 IO's at a time. So for me, what little use I get out of a double xp booster used in conjunction with other fast-leveling methods that you mentioned is more useful than those extra tray slots.

Edit to add: However, now that I see that the Recipe Inventory is also on sale, THAT I might get. Because I *do* care when my recipe inventory fills up, and it tends to happen a lot.

lol @ you thinking you have any idea what is useful to me

Someone on my Facebook page posted "Holy crap did the red woman just give birth to Venom?!"

Tell that to the City Vault.

I'm sick of this argument because it just hasn't been demonstrated to be true or relevant. I'd bet real money that most people want to play BOTH heroes and villains. We've seen data on how many hero characters are in the game vs how many villain characters, but we haven't seen data on how many players have hero characters vs how many have villain characters. And we haven't seen data on how much time the average player spends playing a hero vs playing a villain. Most importantly we don't have data on what players WANT to play vs what they feel compelled to play by the game. But even if that data DOES support the idea that there is twice as much interest in heroes...

... even if people want to play heroes more, that does not mean that there are an insignificant number of people who want more things to do with their villains. Let's suppose that "twice as many heroes as villains" corresponds one-to-one with players and there are only a third of the playerbase who prefer playing villains. You're saying it does not make sense to spend ANY time developing something that a third of your playerbase wants if the other two thirds doesn't care about it?

If that's your argument, let's talk about flying discs and liger pets.

I have no objection to that.

Kal is never used to pair with a 30-35 Task Force as the WST, so we still need something in that slot.

I don't believe anyone ever said "we don't want a level 30-35 Strike Force."

Asking for less meaningless fluff does not mean asking for less content and even if it had, that was 6 years ago. They've had ample time to make up for it, and have chosen not to.

The only thing broken about redside is a relative lack of content. Rather than abandoning it, why not fix it?

We do. Coyote and Panther Stealth. And there's more to come.

Anyone who thinks Raimi is to blame for the problems with Spidey 3 hasn't been paying attention.

At the very least, the belt would help.

Cool. I'll be there in a few days, hopefully. I've got a few hundred pages left...

Good idea.

That may be the point - as you said before, it doesn't really matter WHO they are, only WHAT they're doing. So maybe the author is intentionally not naming them so that we aren't focused on the who, so much as the what.

That works fine if it's consistent and we never learn who they are... although it is a bit difficult to imagine that the kids would never find out...

I just think if it's being kept secret so there can be some kind of big reveal at the end, that seems like a pointless thing to do.

I completely forgot about that until you just mentioned it. Wow it's been a long time since I've seen that movie.

Whoever the invaders are, if there is no reason given, then the invaders are assumed to be just villains and invading for resources or conquest, etc, and there is no valid justification for the invasion. Therefore the kids are heroes and freedom fighters.

That's a perfectly fine plot for a movie. It's the plot of Red Dawn.

But you brought up the question of whether an American audience would think of the kids as freedom fighters or terrorists if the invaders happen to be American. And my point is that in order for us to answer that question with any kind of serious consideration, we need to have a reason for the invasion.

If we don't have a reason, then the American invaders are just villains and of course the kids are heroes. But it's just a fantasy version of the USA that's invading and the idea that "we" are the villains holds no serious philosophical weight, because we don't assign real-world USA motivations and values to the fantasy USA in the movie.

Yes but if you're asking an American audience to consider this possibility and give it any serious thought, to see ourselves as potential villains, then there has to be a reason that we can swallow. Otherwise it's too shallow to make that point because how are we supposed to believe that the US is invading Australia or wherever this is "just because?"

It depends on the circumstances of the invasion, surely, but that's got nothing to do with my comment. I just mean from a story perspective, trying to make it a big mystery who the invading army is and then revealing it to be the US is just utterly predictable. If it's going to be about the US invading and seeing that from the other side, then I think the concept would be better served making that point up front, not by trying to make it some kind of big reveal.
