Becuase there are so few around who rember how it was...

I was here, I loved ep 2 btw.

Kibs, you'd love it if Nevrax set fire to you.

I'm with Kibs, Jayce and Nookie. I had been unable to play for awhile before it had started...came back just in time for Ep 2. Love most of it. I wish the guards of our diggers would have gotten Honor points for fighting back the Kitin as well as the opposing faction.

I'll agree on that point. HP should have been given for Kitin slaying.

Hahahaha.... I see from the poll I am the 2nd newbie to reply, Still populated by the 'oldies' .....always a good sign

I remember both Episode 2 and Episode 1.

I loved both episodes because they instigated massive character, story, and political development. Life is the way it is on Atys, there are no "devs" to complain to...

In other words, I play the game for roleplay. Episode 2 stimulated my roleplaying. I have no complaints OOC.

True, but we'd be flabberghasted if something so incongrous happened IRL though. Imagine waking up one morning to perfectly serious news reports that a giant cerulean koala bear was destroying chicago.

That's what EP2 was like.

and the incongrous part would be what? Mostly I pray for that every night when I go to bed.

Fine, then be flabberghasted in-character and cut the whinge about changed lore, PvP-centric developments, gimped neutrals, or whatever else your mind comes up with.

Ah, I'd actually forgotten about the changed lore! That's a good point. Suitable for time travelling SF stories perhaps but didn't feel quite so appropriate here, felt like damage control :/

Point was, sudden non-intuitive changes like that break immersion and versmillitude.

Sigh.... I miss the good old days I did enjoy EP2 to an extint (didn't get to play as much as I would have liked do to sharing a comp at the time)... But I do see a degrade from the way the community was before,Wether you want to admit to the truth is up to you
