I think a few things could really help with that:
- Voice acted dialog.
I could see a model where we crowdfund 3D artists to add stuff to the game, and it's free for everyone, after the goal has been met.
I agree with a lot, quite a lot of the rest of your post (that I haven't quoted) but the voice acting? Ah, no. seriously. Voice acting is binary, it's either amazing (I am old school and if anyone ever played any of the Legacy of Kain games then that was my standard for great voice work) or shit. And most of it is shit. Plus in a comic book inspired game the speech bubbles work!
Provided those crowdfunded efforts are somehow still classed as donations and...see, getting donations to fund the servers is one thing. Getting a 3D artist to do work like that would involve setting up a private commission, or else you're wandering into tax issues, things that they would have to claim/report, what their work is. Blah blah. Rogue Server. Possible legal complications. Not impossible but you're threading a corkscrew opening and trying not to touch the sides there.
You know, I could have explained that a lot better but I'm a bit tired. LOL.

That would be cool if we could get a way to spawn a whole team of doppelgangers. (Kinda like the last mission from Part 1 of Positron's TF.)
Exactly.

See, my fellow Goldside enthusiasts? 😄 This is PROOF that Goldside NEEDETH... NO... DESERVETH much love 💖
I am absolutely sure that her power can be broken and has limits, if you take Crow for example (Crow from the Crusader arc at level 15), he was able to conceal his true motives from the Praetorian Vanessa Devore, and I'm sure that there is a possibility for factions to emerge under the right circumstances *cough* Pandora's Box *cough* Talons of Vengeance *Cough* 😉
Praetorian De Vore also had to contend with Tilman's entire Seer network looking for her so Crow COULD slip beneath the radar I think. Primal De Vore does not have that problem.

A demorecord character replace is a good option if you've got a LOT of alts. So if you were to record and replace these guys for instance.

If you do find the right spot and/or time of day for good screenshots, don't forget that you can use demo recording/editing to easily replicate the screenshots and even add multiple characters to one screenshot. There is some info in the thread below.
Or you can load your alts into AE as NPCs and just get them all together...depending one how many you have of course! Looks like that group is standing in Super Charger's regular spot there.

Complete reinstall as opposed to a verify? Just clarifying.
-
Same same here.

You could just build a room like that in a base though and adjust the lighting how you wish.

The heroes are called "Blue" because they are sad and pathetic, imagine standing underneath a statue talking about your catgurl, RP'n that your Billy badass superman wannabe, repeating some lame ass missions from some cardboard contacts and picking your nose. Blah...
"Red" is passion and spirit! Fun times do whatever you want and ultimately if we are so bad then why do we permanently get rid of the villains while "blue side" wastes tax payer dollars putting them in a prison that has more holes than a piece of Swiss cheese. Yeah we rob banks but hey the Rogue Isles economy sucks.
"Gold" side yeah "F" Cole freaking pervo incest ass. Just cause its shiny doesn't means its great, you ever heard you can't polish a turd?

Less than 30% of the population is villains.
There is no need for the heroes to identify that they are running a hero team when recruiting when 70% of the players are playing heroes.
And, yes, one expect villainy from villains so of course they are complaining. So rough got get arrested for doing crimes. I know, villains, you don't deserve to pay the time for your crimes.
As for the Praetorians, I'm glad all those that play Praetorians have posted on this thread. Why you don't want to be "gold" for your selfless act of being Praetorians can not be understood for by non-Praetorians.
Heroes!
You know what I say is true. No need to say blue. If you have to type four letters make them be "hero" instead of "blue". You don't even have to type "side"
/macro LFT "lfg Level $level $archetype hero looking for team."
No need to bow down to the 30% that want to be villians. Because, after all, they are villains.

Absolutely. There's a few nice spots in Praetoria. I'll have to check my shots to see where I was then.
-
Depends what you want in shot with you though, yes?

I have, and I imagine many do this, toons that are Blue only, Red only, and Gold only. Toons that are Rogues, toons that are vigilantes, toons that made the crossing from Praetoria and are now whatever, toons that use Null, toons that only cross via tips/morality missions, Gold Resistance, Gold Loyalists, Gold incarnate. Toons following the VEAT and the WS/PB storylines. A toon that was dropped into Galaxy via the base portal at level 1 and went street sweeping, and is there still patrolling the past, that poor level 8 MM Ninja toon. An entire smorgasbord of what you can do, not even adding in how the ATs affect how things play out, blah blah. Everyone really should at least try variations because you might be surprised, you might not and it may reinforce your previous opinion. Whatever. Play how you like and try not to piss people off, bearing in mind some are, and no it's not PC to say this, but some are just natural gobshites and should be avoided.
Other than that if you don't like Gold then you're simply wrong. I can't help you. Tsk. 😛 I

Look . . .
You've gone and staked your claim on the wrong hill to die upon.
We all know that when it comes down to the colour shorthand for the various sides, there's really only ONE debate worth having:
It's YELLOWside, -not- goldside!
*plants bigger flag on this hill*
You're all mishearing, it's not GOLD side, it's COLE side.

Right. Picking flowers for your contact's lady friend is right up there. 🤪
I dislike gold side. I hate the factions and the attitudes. The only good thing about it is the updated graphics, which can be, and was beginning to, done to red and blue.
Gold Hamidon can finish eating (or whatever he does) all of Praetoria, rename himself Gaia, and fade into obscurity.
Your opinion is noted.

The Praetorian stories are definitely good. More people should play Gold!

Praetorian Task Forces would be excellent!
As long as they're started out of First Ward or Night Ward! If you have a TF/SF in Nova to Imperial there's a very present danger of outlevelling your content, and to be honest if you're starting in Gold then that's probably why you're there.

Mayhaps even the Primal Carnival could be subject to splintering factions? 😉 Maybe some who don't agree with The Primal Signorina Devore's ruthlessness? 🙂
Considering how she controls them it's not like (a) she wouldn't be aware of a faction forming and (b) crushing it. So a faction would have to be retconned into the Lore from before she took up the mask, if that's even doable.

Do we know what happened to Imperious? There's a future Cimeroran adventure perhaps. Outside of the events of "Who Will Die" it was assumed that Statesman was effectively immortal, positing a similar fate for Imperious...what happened to him?

ROFLMAO.
And that's all you're getting. All Hail Emperor Cole.

Sure, a costume piece or merits or a badge, I like getting that, but for someone who likes to play for story I'm happy to finish an arc and have a think about it, Was that good? Bad? Do I really now want to throw Westin Phipps into the Arachnoid pit in Grandville, or would that sully them since they are obviously superior creatures to him, all that sort of thing. Good content can be like a good book/movie/radio play/TT RPG, and that's what my little goals are.
More content indeed. From 1 to 50.

Just now, Luminara said:
Branching content. Content which changes depending on which decision the player makes. Each run could lead to different outcomes, different follow-up missions, different endings. Do it one way and you're given a certain mission, but one or more other missions are closed off. Like saving a hostage or letting the bad guys take him/her, which could lead to repelling an assault by the bad guys to reclaim the hostage, or dealing with the repercussions of his/her capture, or a third option which sends you to recover the hostage.
A lot of the existing content could be redesigned along branching paths, with the addition of content to create suitable starting, ending or middle points. Or rewriting parts of existing content and linking it as branches. It would just take some creativity and proper flagging.
Some attempt at this please ^^^

Look, I've mentioned a variation of it before, but getting the Vaz to dig up Atlas and turn him into the biggest Abomination you've ever seen would be just great for Hallowe'en. Or he rises through necromancy at some mad culmination of all the zombie attacks.
