On the PvP side I'm pretty sad that there are only two Battlegrounds. It's such a tiny tiny amount and I don't really enjoy either of them so I find myself never PvPing.

The Dominion isn't evil for evil's sake: there's a whole backstory of how they basically made the lives if every Exile member miserable. They created a terrible caste system for humans, nearly conquered the granok, are basically destroying the Aurin homeworld, and well the Mordesh have nobody but themselves to blame for their mess. I don't mind seeing individual Dominion characters being decent people that have just been raised on propaganda their entire lives, but I don't want a bunch of false equivalence bullshit about how both sides are just as bad. And poo poo, is cartoon villainy really that terrible when the game is basically a giant sci-fi cartoon that isn't taking itself all that seriously?

How can you take the plot seriously when in one of the first quests you can get (on Crimson Isle) a space hamster asks you to enact revenge on his behalf while he's being cooked alive?

That quest gave the Chuas a lot of credit. He was literally cooked all the way through but he still wants to fight.

Yeah, I just gave up on doing Hycrest at the 'proper' level. Only so many times you can be the only person in a group that avoids the giant gently caress-off search light before it gets annoying.

The best part about Scientist are the extra Galactic Library entries with sassy scanbot annotations. Yes, Scanbot is a real character with entertaining writing Carbine never tells you about.

Scanbot is not afraid of the danger involved in scanning this creature because user cares for scanbot and would not simply let scanbot be destroyed then copy scanbot's memories into a new body and wipe the memory of repeated destruction.

I'm debating between medic and engineer as my second class. Warrior has been really fun up to 42 so far but I think I need a small break with another class. I suppose I also have a stalker that I've been playing with but I'm not sure how similar that's going to be to warrior. Engineer seems fun because I can tank if need be (since warrior is currently useless for it) and I hate myself just enough to try to heal on a medic. Thoughts?

Is all the lore scanbot unlocks commented like that? A fair portion of it. Some of it is general comments, but I'd say the majority of it is stuff along the lines of "of course scanbot can understand what the buzzbings are saying anyway, but scanbot is pretty sure user would not want to know as user is sensitive about user's appearance and buzzbings can be surprisingly catty" or him cataloguing the things he hopes you are one day punished for.

Espers make primes look like chumps between a root that goes through IA, a self-healing spammable dps move that outranges melee autos, a dash that self-heals, and an absorption innate (pretty much the same skillset that makes the class king overlord of being obnoxious in 1v1 fights). I actually have a harder time with primes on my engineer alt than I did as an esper but a lot of that is trying to use my innate on engineer for absorbs (this does not work with the dps innate of course). Also because Engineers don't have a forward dash skill  .Also best NPC in the game is hands down the Osun Blood Pit Announcer in the KV instance.

The new hoverboard costs something like 180 platinum for all the bells and whistles or something absurd like that. I'm not sure who that is aimed for, unless it's to help out gold sellers to justify their selling of gold.

I make 4-5 Plat a week so far, and I mostly just vendor my gathering mats and donate BoEs, patterns, and AMPs to the gbank. I don't think it's unreasonable to come to the conclusion that there are probably a fair few people that have that kind of cash. Plus it pulls that straight out of circulation.
