Has there been anything funny at all on the forums or Reddit or is it time to pack it up?

Like I said, most of the vocal idiots over there have left or shut up so right now the biggest drama on the OF is the devs turning off the auction house for over a week and screwing what few paying customers they still had, and the fact that Dominion players are really butthurt that Exiles get like 75% of the playerbase because they have Aurin.

The free to play relaunch is soon, so I'm waiting on the feedback of new players and the response the bitter old-timers will have to the freeloading :argh:casuals:argh: entering their game. In the meanwhile, have a picture of this game's glorious character creation.

Of all the garbage you could have posted from the character creator, the robot lady with non-realistic proportions is the one you chose lol

ugh this is completely unrealistic, her waist cant be that thin, that's where all of her internal organs go, such essential for a robot organs like:

They do sort of. The ratio of waist/ribs to hips isn't as extreme on the other races, but it's still way too exaggerated. I just don't see the point of illustrating non-human body proportions with a robot lol

The art team went too far with the aesthetic they've chosen. Everything is way too bouncy and rubbery and stretchy and it's incredibly off-putting, at least to me, and I'm a big fan of cartoony poo poo

I would be all-in on a Genndy-directed art style. A big part of that is actual animation, though.

Gif's made from footage I found showcasing all the body types on Youtube, and I liked the cursor highlighting the weirdness. I could've taken footage from a comparable look at a different race, but the gif would've lost the cursor.

i played this when it launched and then dropped it after a month i think. is carbine still making their raids impossible and upping the difficulty should anyone dare to complete one?

We should have started a betting pool to see who can guess how they're going to gently caress up the F2P launch, because we all know they're going to screw something up horribly.

Taking safe bet here- wont properly prepare for the number of people who will try out there game (the poor souls) , massive lag and crashes.

While you might be overestimating GW2 market share, I do agree with people not playing Wildstar after a few weeks:

Especially once they realize how bad of a game it is.
