I love Quinn to pieces. But Theron is there being all adorably annoying. It is going to be a long six days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rare direct message from the Purple Quinn himself for someone who came out from the depths of lurkdome to join the fun In other news, I made another warrior with an almost Lammia Edition Quinn This customisation actually looks good with the sparkly eyes bug. I also sent a PM to Keith regarding making Iokath replayable so we can see our custom preference of Quinn. I included a visual EDIT: can someone remind me how to make TM correctly using the number keys? I think the post was deleted.

Damask_Rose Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Every time I peek at the Vaylin for companion thread I have to bite my tongue so I don't end up trolling on their thread In general the Vaylinmancers ignore every bit of information provided about Vaylin's personality pre-Nathema in order to justify redeeming her and romancing her, and yet we Quinnmancers are the ones who have Stockholm syndrome and tolerate an abuser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you play Dragon Age and like a character named Solas, you get accused of supporting abuse and all kinds of things... Despite him not abusing you even once! He dumps you and keeps his identity a secret, but that's not really abuse of any kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like the Arcannmancers too. Talk about tolerating abusers... People will justify anything if they have a thing for a character. I can't even look at the Vaylin or Arcann threads.

Asmodesu Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Those of us who like Theron are starting to get that treatment too, as does those who would love Scourge, or like Kaliyo or Malavai, Arcann or Vaylin.. Honestly, once someone doesn't like any character it seems they can't understand that someone might, even if for silly reasons since fictional characters, gotta love it when characters bring out the best and worst of people <3 I was always overjoyed to find people not out to insult me for loving Malavai hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like redemption arcs...if they're done well, and I want to see how they handle Arcann's. Atoning for crimes such as his - is that even possible? How so? So...yeah, I'm just curious. The romance aspect, for me, is secondary to his personal character arc. I hope they don't *just* make a romance arc and instead develop his character for both friends and potential romances.

rachetsw Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 While I myself do not care for Arcann I am glad that someone does. I have a idea for my fic, later down the road for him. None of my characters will romance him. But I think it would be interesting for Jaesa and him to get to know each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see if, and how, they pull it off and like Jagaimee said, I hope they will develop his character rather than just toss in a cheesy romance. Arcann: I know I'm a mass murderer and I had a nice time trying to kill you repeatedly but, look at my abs! And my head, it's so bald and shiny. Did you see my scars? Sexy, am I right? Yeah baby, come and get it. Player: Oh my goshh, Arcann is sooo buff! I love him, I want his babies! .... Oh, his crimes, what? *giggles* The only crime here is that he's still wearing pants, rawr!

Oooh baby! ... I mean, that sh.it would suck. Oh btw, Happy Thanksgiving to all you American folks! ewww at that type of way to handle it, nope nope nope. I may like the idea of Arcann's romance (for one sole character, not my 20+ others) but I seriously hope it does not boil down to something like that, I only wanted it for the one character that the "tried to kill multiple times" would fit (ie: "every other guy who I've fallen for has tried to kill me afterwards, at least this one got the temptation out of the way well beforehand"), no others of mine would go near him with a 6 foot pole, criticism on the character's actions is well justified (just not insulting the person for liking the character). I just honestly want a better LI conversations across the board ... it sucked for me with a non-romancing warrior and Malavai's return, and I know it was worse for those who had a few characters romancing him etc which is why my warriors that are with him have not touched the content at all. Please let them never mess up so badly again seeing as they've teased returning so many more LI's, are they all getting tiny fragment few lines of dialogue as well? I'm curious for if there's going to be a more fuller expansion next year... PSA : I know I had one rant post in the past somewhere that was meant to be aimed at the personal insults to people liking Arcann parts, but l I got over it. Especially since 2 days later I had a mental breakdown and am currently still fighting to manage clinical depression on top of asd. I have no hard feelings, it was a bad time and it happens to everyone, I'm sure. I got back into writing to help distract myself from other stuff at least so sorry if people are still holding a grudge over one post made weeks ago, didn't mean crap to go that far.

Nightfrogger Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) I made a character specifically to romance him, because I want to see if all eventually. But every time I think of romancing Arcann all I can think about is a part from Venture Brothers (it is inappropriate but still made it onto tv, just warning) I just always pictured it like this: Arcann: You pushed me off a ledge in Asylum to fall to my death... Player: Only after you stabbed me in the chest... Player: That was so hot... *make out ensues* Edited November 24, 2017 by Nightfrogger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunafox Posted November 24, 2017 Author Share Posted November 24, 2017 Those of you who are into Arcann, have at it and have fun, I mean that. I personally want nothing to do with space Hitler and I don't give two craps about any sort of redemption arc for him. I also don't want anything to do with space Hitler's whiney shrew of a sister either. They're both dead to me. So long as people are having fun, that's the main thing, that's what the game is for, I just figured I'd drop my two cents worth about those two characters. I make no apologies for my feelings and never will. As for holding any sort of grudges about something like this, I can't be bothered. I have larger issues, including a struggle with depression to the point, where I even question if I should bother answering, but figured I should in case anyone mistakenly took my disgust and dislike against Arcann as dislike and disgust against them...that couldn't be further from the truth, and I felt it important to get that out too. So yeah, have at it. And Happy Thanksgiving to American Quinnmancers, I hope you had a nice day. Now, I'm going to go back to the namesake of this thread, because *he* is truly awesome. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JennyFlynn Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) I'm not offended by anyone liking, or disliking, Arcann. We all have our own way of playing the game and approaching NPCs, especially in situations where 'headcanon' plays a large role. For all I know, someone has their very own unique story developed around the Arcann romance in which it works for them and well, that's cool for them. For me, it's more a case of pure curiosity, disturbing curiosity in some situations. Arcann is also a controversial character, and even more so as a romance, as is someone else I absolutely do love and adore and still hold out hope for albeit in vain. If they can do the Arcann romance right, perhaps, maybe, there's a tiny chance they'll do my desired romance justice too, should he ever get the chance. In any case, I'll be testing the waters on a boosted character I never play otherwise. My mains are too important and already madly in love with their current partners, I won't ruin them with Arcann. As for depression, I can relate. I have BPD and some days, or weeks, are rougher than others. Those are the times where I barely post, where I hardly Facebook and spend most my time napping or just suffering in bed. On those days, simply getting up is a miracle. It's hard, it sucks. For me, it also makes me paranoid as fu.ck and has me question every word I read in a comment or post, wondering if someone's making a slight at me, if they're just faking being nice, if there's any veiled insults and I'll imagine in reality, everyone just sits there laughing at me behind my back. Yes, even on the interwebs. Really doesn't help the depression either. The holiday months suck, I don't know if that rings true for everyone but it seems extremely common, so that doesn't help either. It's just become one of those things, I'm "used" to it and just try my best to battle through it until it goes away, find minor things I know will make me smile. Watch a movie I know will make me cry, just so I can try and get at least some of it "out of my system". Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and I'll just curl back up in bed hoping to sleep, just sleep until it blows over. Anyways, rambling, but I'm sending big hugs and so much love out to anyone else dealing with depression, in any form, and just saying, you're not alone. Ever.
