  1. this is why players are leaving this game in droves for wildstar the devs there care what the players want and go about working on putting it in.

     

    Pretty sure the same got claimed when SWTOR came out. Every new MMO on the market has devs that 'care more about the players' than all the current MMOs combined, it's kinda magical that way.

     

    I'd advise you to wait for a few months after Wildstars release to see how realistic that claim actually is. ;)

  2. I vividly remember that one time where our chaotic WoW raid (back in WotLK... Naxxramas. We weren't very professional) finally got an experienced raidleader for one run. A soft spoken lady, that in a matter of seconds managed to get EVERYONE to be quiet and do their job. after only exchanging a few sharp words <3 It was hilarious.

     

    But eh, I guess I'm more used to a high ratio of female players, because I'm a roleplayer? *shrugs* In my experience you find a lot of females on RP Servers. Certainly more than on normal Servers. So yeah, a female voice on voice chat isn't all that unusual, so people aren't really surprised by it.

     

    I forgot where I was going with this. I'll stop my rambling.

  3. Yeah I like this, it's like being undercover.

     

    It's also really not important. *blinks* I usually write 'he' in discussions on the internet, be it in a flashpoint or on a forum, simply because it's absolutely impossible to know the persons real gender, so I just assume it's a guy until proven otherwise.

     

    I also really don't care if the person is male, female or an asexual amoebae, all that matters is if he/she/it does his/her/its role in the flashpoint and is decently pleasant to converse with in chat or on forums. ;X

  4. Another thing that never really occurred to me until Darth_Wicked mentioned it another thread was that they probably won't do/add a "unattractive" race to the game, simply because they wouldn't sell as much as an attractive race would. For instance races like the Nikto or Weequay would probably never sell very well, where as a much more visually appealing race has a chance at selling better.

     

    Which is a really big shame. For me SWTORs biggest flaw was always the lack of interesting racial choices. I understand why they made the races like they are and why they chose only humanoid races, but... those races are just boring. When it comes to RPGs I usually tend to play the least human looking race. In WoW I played Horde for that very reason, most of my characters were Trolls, with some Orcs and Tauren thrown into the mix... in Guild Wars 2 my most played Characters are Charr, Asura and Sylvari.

    Humans are boring. Green skinned humans are boring.

     

    And it was a huge, HUGE disappointment that a game with so many interesting and strange races in the available lore decided to go down the "differently coloured humans" route. Weequay, Nikto... all that would've been great. I would've loved to be able to play an Ithorian... maybe a Selkath, a Quarren. Hell, even a Gungan would be more interesting than what they have. -_-

  5. That's a single instance though. :p

     

    The case he pointed out is a whole freaking planet(!!!). Regardless, at this point I most doubt people care... The hardcore lore zealots jumped ship long ago, I reckon.

    Please, I played WoW, I'm used to lots of weird timelines. Voss doesn't phase me.

     

    Imagine starting a deathknight, which puts you into the timeline of wrath of a lich king at start. Once done you're transformed into the timeline of cataclysm, which plays after wotlk. You won't stay there for long though and quickly march through the dark Portal into the TBC timeline, which plays (at this point in time) before wotlk so technically at a time where Deathknights on playerside didn't exist yet... until you're around level 68. Then you are allowed to move to Northrend, which puts you back into the wotlk timeline. AFTER Northrend, on level 78, you are once again allowed to move into the cataclysm timeline, followed by the Mists of Pandaria timeline.

     

    With that in mind, it's really not that hard to just smile, nod and accept that the stuff happening on Voss already happened and my character is allowed to be a Jedi/whatever because of that. :p

  6. The last time I checked it was still 5 million on Progenitor. But that was last week and I haven't been able to check again, since my PC died. *sobs quietly*

     

    And from the looks of it my sub will run out before my new one arrives too. ._.

  7. I maintain my belief that modestly dressed female characters automatically make people think that the player behind the character has to be female (because if it'd be a guy the character would wear skimpy outfits, right?). Furthermore the people who whisper stuff like that are most likely teenagers or... pretty close to teenagers in terms of mindset.

    Ergo character that is believed to have a female player behind it equals weird whispers.

     

    Just a theory, of course.

  8. To this day, I have no idea from where that came from. It's not like she's wearing anything suggestive or anything.

     

    Amusingly enough I'm often believed to be a lady, because my female characters tend to dress rather modestly (and act the part when it comes to RP).

     

    The fact that I'm a huge fashion snob when it comes to dressing up characters may contribute to that as well. Dahling, all that clipping just looks terrible. That won't do, won't do at all.
