Oh really? I guess Arachnos just knows how to lead from the front.

They actually added the ability to attack and defeat civilians in Mayhem missions. There's even a Badge for taking down 1,000 of them: Terminator. But . . . yeah. More opportunities to make . . . "use" of civilians Redside would be a good step toward delivering on some player-agency.

At the very least, having some additional static vehicles to add to Bases would be great. Especially if we get accompanying emotes for our characters to be properly seated in them. If we can't actually drive around the Cities proper, we could at least play pretend in our Bases.

Come come, now @ToxinFox! Cunning villains walk in and out of Paragon City Hall every day. Forged documents and a new face can open a lot of doors, don't you know?

With the way the setting is written, @Eoghnved? "Yes-no." Or "no-yes" if you prefer. Ultimately, I think if the character is yours, you get to declare your own origin of power. If that ends up being incongruous or incompatible with other players' views on the Origins, then it's just kind of the nature of the beast. The canon is rather fluid and flexible. I'm fairly sure that's by design. Granted, if one interpretation of the lore doesn't cooperate with another, the players in question may need to evaluate the importance of interacting with one another against their personal belief in the integrity of the lore.

Bind Wizard: Accumulate 100 Hours of total Hold time on enemy targets. Macromancer: Participate in the application of sufficient Confuse to surpass the Boomtown Council Warwalker's Protection. Of course, both of these suggestions, we would need to make sure that every Archetype has a reasonable way to obtain Hold and Confuse Powers, even if as Temporary Powers.

That's a very strange philosophy to me. Equating value to "striving." I can't honestly fathom it. I play the game because it's a game which checks a significant number of boxes for the interests I have in a form of interactive entertainment, in terms of visuals, auditory, social, and mechanical elements. Why else would you think someone would be playing?

One of the players from my Vampire group just shared this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4FqGPRQWFM She wants more.

"Work." Does that not sound terribly incongruous with a leisure activity? I mean, sure. If some people work for leisure, they can work. As a personal choice, absolutely. But wherefore the "need?"

I sometimes spot things like the Atlas Park helicopter in the background of Contact Icons, if that helps narrow that bug down any.

That reminds me! We -do- have some sports teams, they're just not in Paragon City. Red Monkeys, Blue Monkeys, and Green Monkeys.

Sorry about that. I had posted the Code back on the @MetaVileTerror account, and I hadn't been on that one for a long while. I just cycled my About Me-s, so I got the alert. Honestly, looking at them, the Code could use an overhaul. But it's meant to be a community endeavour, so I welcome everyone to provide feedback and criticisms! Please let us know how to improve it.

And finally the brain-surgery station: Today we'll be carving them, for the most part. We'll do any stragglers tomorrow at the last minute, if necessary. I'll post those photos as well!
