Quote:The worst part is the addition of white tights to an otherwise white-less costume. It just looks stupid, and I'm sure it'd look loads better if it was black. Even if the white was on the top half of the body, it'd look better. Right now, it looks about as bad as someone wearing a long sleeved shirt with shorts.I really don't like it, myself. However, there are still more options between Leifeld and Superman. What bugs me is that her costume doesn't make "sense" on an instinctive level. I've heard David's explanation of why he went with it and I can respect it, but what I mean is I look at this thing... And I just see shapes and colours. And when I look away, all I remember is shapes and colours. You could show me pretty much any of the other concept costumes for her and I probably couldn't tell the difference at a glance, because the difference is in the finer details that I have to really look to see.
Maybe it's just a sense of design aesthetic, but I've always preferred costumes that have something iconic and memorable about them, even when they're otherwise busy. Black Scorpion, for instance, has one of the busiest costumes in the game with all his little scientific doodads stuck all over his armour and the blinking lights and such, but do you know what I remember when I see him? Large black armour, head suspended inside it, claw and blaster hands, scorpion tail. The busyness of it adds to the costume's fidelity, but it is not part of the costume's identity, is what I'm saying.
The trouble with Penny's costume is that the sum total of its identity is held within its fidelity, and this makes it unmemorable. It's like trying to get me to remember the arrangement of pebbles on a river-side. Yes, I'm sure I could identify each separate one, track its position and orientation and later identify that same pebble beach through a single photo of it... But to my brain, it's still just a pebble beach. Having to examine the costume is a mental step that I don't make instinctively, hence why her costume isn't memorable. To my eyes, it's a mish-mash of colours and patters and pretty much the only thing that's memorable about her is that hair, which so far is unique to her among NPCs.
Also, every time I look at her face, it looks more and more like a trollface picture. -

I just wanted him to know he was special to all of us.

I'm not sure how anyone would think that looks pretty. Her face looks swollen, her eyes are practically on the sides of her head, and her jawline would make Buzz Lightyear blush with pride.
Unless they changed her since that picture was taken, then yeah.
*edit* And that metal thing on her head is seriously not helping her features. -
Too bad her ingame face is practically the same as Foreshadow's.
I guess she's proving that indeed, women can do things just as well as men can.
Like having manly faces. -
Let's all chip in and buy Zwilinger a Tokay Gecko.

Not trying to be an ***, but I never understood why people typed out acronyms, and then went on to type the full version of the phrase.
I've seen it a lot recently, and it always kinda weirded me out. Sorta defeats the purpose of shortening it to begin with.
Not trying to pick on you or anything. -

Hairless cats also come with some problems normal cats don't, such as wintertime issues and sunburns.

It's ok, that just means you're special! And I will love you all the same. -
Speaking of cats, I never understood why people said "omg all cats r so mean".
I've had like 15 cats, and not a single one has been anything less than playful and sweet. -
Hey, if they want to pretend their girls have foot-long Coneys, that's all well and good. What's creepy is that they're waggling them around in front of other players.

If you were subbed, you'd be getting one token a month.
Unless you were to spend tokens on crap like the "summon statesman" charges, you'd have stored up plenty by now.
Unless, of course, you're not at the tier 9, which I forgot about.
Nevermind! -

Omg they added staff melee already why didn't they add the powerset people have been asking for since like the dawn of time? I know I'm one of many players in the game who have been waiting for Slapstick Melee, and instead we just get a plain old slap in the face by having staff released first???? I get the feeling no one on the dev team listens to the community.
And what about our players on the European server?

I was gonna write something kinda vague to help you back on the correct path of what I meant, but screw it.
No, I mean how you keep acting towards anyone who tries to defend anything you deem unworthy of your praise. It's pretty annoying. Anything you don't agree with gets a childish insult and an irritating smily face.
And you're calling sword-weilding wolves immature?
Course, you're probably gonna just ignore this post, like you do every other person who tries to call you out, so whatever.
