8 new NPCs...?

Jeez, my Mystic Mountain map (assuming it actually works when the update happens) will need some serious renovation...

Well, Adelaide was still closer to her than Tyrone, and, well, Adelaide was... unpredictable, to say the least, so Nathara popped out from behind Adelaide and mouthed a
"Yes."
Bahahahahaha

... Derick x Raquel >.>
That's...kinda what I'm thinking :P
Doesn't have to work out that way, though.

I want:

A new F-Zero game.
On the PC (possibly).
With an expanded version of the craft creator from GX.
And the addition of a track editor.

Who's with me?

Amusingly, Scotland is having a heat wave right now and I'm sweating like a rapist in here. I've even got the windows open and I've had to draw the curtains because the sun was too bright on my screen. Alright for some, eh boys?
"Sweating like a rapist"? O_o

HL2 speedrun in under 90 minutes. Soooo many bug abuses. :P
I can only imagine what was going through the minds of those Combine troopers as Gordon evaded all of their ambushes by flying through the air like a jet airplane :P

I have made text that is unreadable on both darkling and default! Muhahahaha!
I take your text and apply the mighty powers of highlight! Now I can see it regardless of color or forum style! Hohohoho!

I tried reading Prequel, and gave up after the second time she passed out. I really don't understand why someone would write a story with no character development and absolutely zero net accomplishment. I thought maybe we were seeing some actual development after the whole Ayleid ruins thing, but nope! Back to square one!
Never mind that all of the player suggestions are practically screaming at the character not to do something. Nah, let's just railroad the story back into depression-town.
Listen, I get that that's how depression works in real life. I've been there. I'm still struggling with it. But it doesn't make for a compelling story when your character learns absolutely nothing and, as a result, never develops as a character. It also doesn't make for a fun game when the character completely ignores almost every action given to her.
I mean, it's fine to write a character with a depressing life, but if you go out of your way to keep making the character's life miserable, instead of letting it get even a little better over time, it stops being a story and becomes a sadist power fantasy.
Agreed with everything, but the bolded part especially. I swear the creator is taking a sick sort of pleasure from making things as miserable as possible for the main character.

Got bored due to lack of activity (seriously, all three FEF games are dead today for some reason), so I threw together an experimental character design.

Instead of focusing on nothing but RES and LCK like many healers, I decided to try and make a tanking Priest. Basically, the idea is that he'd be reasonably dodgy with plenty of DEF and RES to soak up any attacks that happen to hit. He has Pass so he can rush through enemy lines to heal someone (probably a downed character) and hopefully not end up on the ground himself afterwards. Progression would be Priest Trainee -> Priest -> Bishop for yet more tankiness.

I'm the furthest down in the dungeon I've ever been. I kill a few wandering monsters after walking down the stairs, open a door, and come face-to-face with a 90+ Monster Zoo. I fire off my very last Bolt of Squid.

Fired up the Steam store for the first time in a while, checking to see if the Summer Sale had started yet. It hadn't, so I checked the featured list. Standard stuff: Skyrim, Borderlands 2, Magic 2014, Arma III...

...Final Fantasy VII? Whut?

Fire Emblem fad was the only one I took part in. Hell, I'd like to think I helped start it, though probably not :P

23803
After a few minutes, Gregor stood up and got ready to go. Charlotte was right; he couldn't give up hope just yet, and if it turned out his family really was...gone, he'd have to grieve later. Right now it sounded like the rest were preparing to leave.

And that's how Sirus started getting 20 avatar requests per day and Bay12 got a new avatar fad.

THE END/THE BEGINNING :P
Bah. If you honestly think I'd be able to do that, you severely overestimate my leisure time :P

23805
Even I have a fire emblem avatar, but like Sirus', it's a stealth example.

Come on, don't you guys want to be coooooooooool?
