In a video game twist. One of the state department crew that was killed in the same attack as the Ambassador was also one of the leaders of EvE onlines players. http://kotaku.com/59...e-online-player

Do I see your nurse for that script?

"Ooooh, You're corrugated aren't you dearie? Yes you are! YES YOU ARE!"

To level 15

Gonna be managing soon... yay for resume building *sigh* Also, looks like my school is gonna get bowl action again given they're on a roll (beat Tulsa and the Hawkeyes)

It seems like most people aren't that great of adherents to the "go to chuch on sunday" rules anymore. So they might consider themselves christians, but if you dug into them about doctrine you'd get something along the lines of "I haven't bene in a while".

I remember being 20 at my parents house, and having a pair of missionaries come through and try to convince me that the Feathered Serpent of the Aztecs (don't ask me to spell the bloody thing) was actually a Prophet, and that was to explain why there was no Prophet after Jesus/Mohammed and then Joseph Smith. Also, I've found that there are really two types of Mormons (although, this is based on my high school experience with a LARGE LDS community). The hyper conservative type who won't even so much as think an unpure thought, go to church at 5 am for bible study, and pray for marriage in Temple... and those that basically flaunt it all. The strangest part for me, is that apparently the Mormon "heaven" is the man becoming a God of another planet, while his wife gives birth to every living thing there. And to get to that point, they have to have had 5(?) kids with no schizophrenics (because Schitzo doesn't count towards the baby number)

... I just got serious deja-vu I'd swear we had this exact conversation before >.>

Well then again, the economy of COH was basically worthless because most of everything you earned was from hamidon and effectively useless overall (enhancments that you bought from the in game stores were what most people rocked until Invention appeared)

Judging by it's boards, the news came out of NOWHERE and caught the developers by surprise too. They'd been still doing those "Well, in the future of the game we're planning to do this". I get the feeling it was more of a Korean business man going "Ok, we've got these projects, we need to raise profits... and these four have the lowest profit margin/are loosing money KILL DEM!"

I am entering a period of Mourning. City of Heroes is being shut down at the end of november.

I'd always run off the same concepts as those found in Mass Effect, with top being "good" bottom being "bad".

Honestly, you'll find they had no unified vision for light vs dark. Including the "ripped from todays headlines" quest on courscant.

And go Scrambling for Illum? ... Is it wrong I want to join Malgus?

The only really "good" piece of it that I can recall is the end of the series where you get a massive "Huzzah" from planetary forces (on imp side at least).

Just throw me a line. My schedule is crowding up with school, dealing with a president induced sunburn, work, and homework.

Inquisitor Can do tanking and healing between it's two classes. However.It has probably one of the DULLEST storylines in the game.

Also, working on learning Pyccknn (Russian) doing ok, I'm able to figure out names EXTREMELY easily (particularly Alexander, Katherine, Dimitrii... the really popular ones). Still a bit worried overall about my next class (which is a test)

Saw El Presidente at this place http://www.kcci.com/ http://www.kcci.com/image/view/-/16298164/medRes/3/-/maxh/460/maxw/620/-/6l75g4/-/speech.jpg Might end up in their coverage glaring at the camera (long story) during one of the crowd shots. I'm about 100 feet out of shot to the right. It was all strangely lopsided with the supporters being put up front, then looping around the camera area to the right with a few bleachers. Might have picked up some heat exhaustion... was 86-89 and friggin humid out, so I had sweat dripping from every pore, and am now having trouble standing upright. I saw two others be med-evaced from the crowd before the Pres showed up (and one DURING the speech). Gotta say, they didn't really plan the entire thing out well (they told us we were starting at 12... he apparently wasn't even on the ground until 1 and didn't take the stage for another 40 minutes)

One thing I laughed at in Deus Ex was the fact that you could buy a "punch through the wall" technique that was used like three times.

It does, but nearly as much XP

And a thief could end up dang near invincible if you get the right advanced class.

School is back in session. Start every day at 8:30 to catch the bus and be on time for my Russian class. Also http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/story/2012-08-23/obama-courts-young-voters-battleground/57256664/1?csp=34news-NewsTopStories+%28News+-+Top+Stories%29 Totally gonna be in the crowd that day. (Yes it will sacrafice classes, but at least one teacher said "instead of class, go see him!"

A silly twist that had some sort of connection to the gameworld (the secret glyphs you'd been finding throughout the game started leading you towards the idea of something like that early on).

My point was that to a degree, everything you posted (at least in terms of character generation and arguments about factions etc), were based around the idea that your character has no thoughts or considerations other than your own. Which makes it harder on your writer from the get go because he has to make things as open as possible. Even then there are bits of back story sprinkled around the character (Shepard, for example, is always going to be a soldier at Akuze), or there is really no story that relates to the character beyond what is already placed in game (the Dragonborn for example). And even with my character in TOR, yes I did create a character for her, but it's almost entirely based on her voice. I couldn't ever make a male inquisitor light side because he just SOUNDS like he kills puppies in his spare time, just like a Jedi Warrior sounds like the superhero. These are bits of character that are provided to you without option, and it's based on your reflection of that that creates the character of the person. And honestly, when you get right down to it, what you're asking for, will create a VERY weak story given how far the writers will have to stretch themselves to fit in the various permutations that they have to design in to keep people happy.
