Guild Wars 2

The meta would go from Full Berserk gear to Full PTV gear. The actual play style would not change in the slightest, except that the fights would take longer since there would be no crit damage. Even with maxed out toughness and vitality, with the longer fights, groups would wipe if you only had 85% damage mitigation. They would be worn down over time.

Two new gay males coming net LS season. They will kiss in the finale :S

Somehow, that wouldn’t surprise me.

Fine, you keep chucking my trolling post into the deep end of the pool! =P

So, I had to go back and read your previous posts a little more carefully.

Master Fuhon.1068:

As anyone who’s deeply studied evil and insanity concepts before can indicate, a person cannot be changed drastically from their original self to become an entirely different person.

I think I read that St. Augustine said something along the lines of “Give me a child until he is five years old, and anyone can have him after that, and he won’t go wrong.” I could be totally wrong on this. You’ve obviously forgotten more about philosophy and theology than I have ever learned, but I’ve always thought that was a good quote. heh

Master Fuhon.1068:

The weak Logan everyone despises is when he’s under the mesmer manipulation of Jenna. Jenna has growing insecurities and isolation from being queen, and she controls him for both the protection and the company. This is a reflection of what one woman ‘wants’. Not a man free to act; not a man fulfilling what he thinks she needs. Except he kind of is, because he is permitting her do this to him.

So, she was literally controlling him?! I did NOT know that. What storyline is that in? (looks to see what toon he can delete to roll a new one for this story. =P). That puts quite the new spin on things. So, we needed to do a Logan intervention. lol

As far as what women want, I really think that women are genetically pre-disposed to try to domesticate and control men. However, if the man actually gives into her controlling, she loses all respect for him because he’s not even strong enough to stand up to her. If he doesn’t, then there is a constant tension as she keeps trying to control him. It’s such a jacked up dynamic. lol I think that all women do that to one degree or another. I’ve read about a couple of studies that demonstrate this concept. What a pain. haha

Master Fuhon.1068:

The second Logan, when she releases him from control, is when he’s allowed to be himself… sort of. He’s been traumatized by the constant mental controlling and almost looks to do things that would prevent it from happening in the future.

This leads into another theory I have. Nearly every boy and girl, by the time they are 16 or so, has been screwed over by someone of the opposite sex. Unfortunately, they make every subsequent boyfriend or girlfriend pay for what that original person did to them. This sets up another jacked up dynamic. haha The “why did that upset you so badly you must be nuts you psychopath!” dynamic. So, I am starting to have a little more sympathy for Logan. lol

“Since it’s mostly females, she decides she ‘wants to talk’ about her plot. "

I disagree. She was just monologuing. (a la Syndrome in The Incredibles. lol)

“I’m curious where they go with this Norncat romance in the epilogue, since they have previously introduced incest to the storyline between Caithe and Faolain (firstborne sisters) and non-consentual mind domination between Jenna and Logan. I’ve seen minimal complaints about these, "

Hmm, aren’t all Sylvari begotten by the Pale Tree? I’m pretty sure they are all brothers and sisters, and whether they are lovin’ on each other, or not, it would seem as if they are asexual from a reproductive standpoint. I could be wrong on this.

Now, you’ve seen minimal complaints about Logan? lol You should join the groups and the mapchat on my server. He’s the most belittled “hero” I’ve ever seen. NO guy thinks he’s anything other than a pantywaste. And, ladies, if you had a guy like that, you’d dump him within a week as you lost respect for him. Disagree if you’d like, but there’s zero way you could respect that guy. And women don’t stay with a guy they don’t respect.

“miriya rant”

Umm, wow, looks like I got one on the hook. Uhhh, well, you sure read a LOT into my eleven sentence post. haha

First, I’m pretty sure that Logan gets mani-pedi’s with Trahearne. I have that on good authority. Don’t doubt me on this.

Next, Kasmeer is a dolt. I didn’t say they were strong females, I said they were females. Hiccups? Really? What? The only thing worse than her and Marjory’s smarmy crap is Logan and his pathetic whining about Jenna. Rytlok should just gut him and get it over with.

I’m also pretty sure I never said ANYTHING about relationships overcoming cultural boundaries and stuff like that. What are you even talking about?

Women can do stuff? Really? Thanks for your enlightenment. It was brilliant. Let’s look at this, since you say welcome to 2014.

A. It isn’t 2014. It’s freakin’ Tyria. It’s a fantasy world. Not the real world. I don’t play it because it reflects the real world. I play it to GET AWAY from the real world.

B. Women can do stuff in Tyria? (Because that’s what we’re talking about, right? The game?) Wow. Thanks. I hadn’t noticed that with the excess of playing-field-leveling things like magic and Azuran technology that physical strength would play an equal role with mental strength. Thanks for your insight into women being able to do things. Apparently, from the story writer’s view, women are the ONLY ones that can do things. (Were you guys in the same Women’s Studies class?)

As far as it taking me 20 times to notice the discrepancy, I’m really not sure what you’re getting at. I was just watching Marjory and Kasmeer make out the first 19 times, so that may be why it took me a while to notice. (Just re-enforcing your stereotypical WASP motif that you are a bit hung up on.) As an aside, you are really angry, Padawan. I’m sorry the world is against you because you have 2 X chromosomes. Poor thing.

A rare moment of recognition for women? Really? Really?

Hmm, looking at my company’s intranet page right now shows me that it’s, buh-what?!, Women’s History Month! Whoa, there’s Sally Ride and Wilma Rudolph and Sandra Day O’Conner and Elena Kagan and pictures from Women’s Suffrage rallies at the turn of the century. Good thing they’ll have Men’s History Month, next month, so it allllll evenssssss outtttttt. Cuz that’s what we’re after, right?

Equality.

In Tyria. Not the real world. Because we’re not talking about the real world.

Right?

I’m standing there, trying to get the “No Place to Hide” achievement, and watching the cutscene for the 20th time, when I notice.

There’s Marjory, Rox, Kasmeer, and Brahm. So we’ve got 3 girls and a rather twerpy lookin’ guy, Brahm. Seriously, what’s with the haircut, guy? Scarlet, who has just wreaked havoc upon Tyria for the last year, is there, as well.

So, 4 girls that are power players, and, uhh, Brahm. The leader of Kryta is Queen Jenna, with help from Logan. Barf.

I’m trying to think of ANY strong guy characters in the story line. I mean, seriously, who writes the stories? Gloria Steinem?

Just sayin’, fellas, or, uhh, ladies, or, uhh, whoever writes this stuff.

I’m not really feelin’ what you’re puttin’ out.
