Ok, ok yeah, yeah simmer the fvck down. I'm trying blueside...sigh.

 

The thing I noticed off the bat is that I can't kill Longbow, I actually tried going after the flying ones in Atlas then realized I'm a "hero". At least on red I can kill LB and Arachnos.

 

Currently in KR, what a dump, you think with all the taxes people pay they would clean up some of these areas and hire more cops or bring in the military. 

I see the effectiveness of having a villain masquerading as a hero, TW/Elec Broot, yeah those Hellions "went to the hospital " sure sure...more like to the factory and turned into Solylent Green crackers or Nutra paste. Who knew going and having Italian food really meant eating an Italian person. Savages. At least let me check that guys wallet before he gets ported off to be a snack cracker.

 

Sure there are benefits everything is sorta convenient (we only have like 20 travel powers now to get to other zones 🙄), a bunch of people teaming, rping under Atlas, and the erp crowds in the alleys and dark corners of pocket D. The AE babies begging for farms, people spamming their powers or preening their costumes off like peacocks. 

 

DFBs, itrials, TFs, and PI council kill fests galore! I did the Atlas and KR bank mishes and was letdown it was over in like 2 seconds. Seriously a handful of thugs and a RI "villain " and poof! done. Lame...would be nice to turn around and rob the bank anyways. I find street sweeping more challenging then the missions so far, going to go into the Hollows since I heard that has good missions. 

Its too easy to jump on the TF bandwagon and level fast but being the signature heroes bitch doesn't sound too appeasing either. Save it with the Recluse thing, at least you can kill him in the future breaking that cycle. Don't see that on blueside using Posi helmet as a piss pot or Valk's head on a pike at least not that I know as of yet.

 

So thats where I'm at, for now going to make it a Fri or Sat night kind of thing. Too much of the niceness and pardon me sir makes me want to start stacking bodies.

 

Final note, what is up with these heroes with the evil names? Slaughter Flaming Skull, Mind Destroyer, etc not very heroic and not in line with the Yuki Pink Bunny Cookie or Captain Super Cool that I see frolicking around. Reminds me of the DC Kingdom Come series in away.

One of the RWZ arcs (level 35+), and vigilante tip missions (level 40+).

Get busy living... or get busy dying.  That's goddamn right.

There's a handful of Vigilante tips in the 30s that pit you against Longbow.  However storywise I think most of them are also Nemesis robots.  Damn shame...

Someone from redside calling anywhere on blueside a dump, that’s rich 🙂

Now now I know calling out politicians who waste tax payer dollars on stupid stuff instead of doing actual good isn't a popular thing but really you have AP looking all nice and then BOOM Kings Row...its a dump.

 

Mercy wouldn't be a dump if Longbow left with their illegal invasion, the upper section of Mercy is nice.

Port Oakes is a weird one port/fishing/skyscrapers but we can blame that on organized crime. Shark is just a factory/mining/refinery overload it should be named New Jersey....

Cap is nice, as is Nerva, and St. Mart. Gville on the other hand is a giant military base which isn't beautiful or ugly just functional. 

 

I'll get back to you on the other blueside neighborhoods when I get to them.

No effing shizz...some of these names are more hard-core than stuff I see on redside. 

You actually SEE people on redside?:-)

Of COURSE The Row is a dump. That’s why it stands out. Put it Redside, it’s just another zone.

 

Kings Row-the home of moxie:-)

Having just ran all Blueside content that cannot be run at 50.... F-ing underwhelming. The Hollows has some decent stuff. Faultline at least has flavor. Not much else. To me everything Blueside was a boring hump generously layered with kill alls and 'rescue' 17 people in a mission, oh wait you did that?  It's a kill all.  Fooled you!  Nice writing there.  Like being hit with a plastic bat a few hundred times.

Conveniently overlooking the vast homeless encampments comprised of what appear to be cardboard houses that make up like half of the Rogue Isles.

 

Sure, King’s Row is in rough shape. But dirty villains aren’t allowed an opinion on the matter 🙂

Kaikara still says that the worst thing about Paragon is that there are no Nick's Weenies to be had. She's checked every zone in the city and found them all sadly lacking in chili weenies. 

 

It's a pain having to go all the way back home to Saint Martial just to find lunch.

Let's be honest, though...half of Paragon is literally in ruins.  Galaxy City, Crey's Folly, Boomtown, Faultline, the RWZ, the Hollows, etc...literally half of the city zones look like Berlin in May of 1945.  The Isles are more rundown than Paragon's nicer neighborhoods, but far less of them are in actual rubble.

The skillful part is letting the longbow die when you're supposed to save them or escort them. Sefu, that guy needs an enema.
