You lost most Americans at Grams.

These clips don't look like the Babylon 5 I remember and why is Castle in them? 🙂

I just came out of the Wine Gums rabbit hole; Jelly Babies, Screamin Jelly Babies, other candy science experiments and ended on a guy doing a redo of the crash VFX from the movie Air Force One.

Just . . . wow! Not gonna unsee that. Is there wine in them?

Grown-assed adults likely in their 50's for the most part playing superheroes, primarily female superheroes on a computer . . . for fun . . . maturity really isn't required. But in these times a sense of humor really really is. Personally I save my maturity for real life, work generally so that I have a really nice retirement when I am fully tired of being mature.

I run forward and steer by right-click-holding the mouse.

Really? Interesting.

Okay so I took a look and of my 50 built characters (most of them level 50), 32 has Hasten and 18 did not so that's roughly 66% has Hasten. Masterminds without exception did not have it and most of my melee toons didn't either except for my kick fighter who I love fast fighting with. All Doms, Controllers and Defenders had it as did all but 1 Blaster. I don't make "teh ubar" builds to take on AVs or EBs solo so I have more room for "fluff" powers, ones that are truly necessary but make things flow better. Characters that are team oriented (heal, buff, debuff) definitely need it in my opinion because the more you are doing that thing, the more you are helping, even if the team may or may not need it.

Remember that old LucasArts Game? That's how I imagine Symphonic Control sounding.

Sir or madame, how might one subscribe to your newslettter as I agree with your position in this matter.

It used to be a non-negotiable option for me on live, I took it regardless. On Homecoming, It is on a lot of toons but its not mandatory any more. Its definitely still a lock on trollers and Doms (as others have said). Because its easier to achieve Endurance stability (or overage) on Homecoming I can sling more pain out so there are times when I and wanting the attacks up faster and Hasten helps.

Man these kind of posts are on the rise.

God love Cassandra. Her biography is a fun read btw.
