So living story was seriously made up in 2 days by 2 awful people? Jeez no wonder. That actually explains a lot. I'm hopeful for the future though since they seem to acknowledge the living story was not great and they're reworking how they do these updates now.

They promised a living, breathing, evolving world...

... and by God, they're going to show it by blowing up one hub and replacing it with a functionally replicated but cosmetically different hub.

SOOOO MUCH

It would've been really funny if they destroyed LA, then distributed everything to various other racial cities/etc. Wanna do a fractal? Rata Sum. Mystic forge? Divinity's Reach. And so on.

They say that if you give a million monkeys a million typewriters and give them a million years they'll eventually write the complete works of Shakespeare.

The living story I would rate 1 monkey, 5 minutes.

It'd be nice if they updated the various racial hometowns so that there's some reason for people to idle do stuff in them. The hometowns don't feel as big if there's no one in them.

When LA gets nuked, the only survivors will be the handful of Tyrians that had been idling in Divinity's Reach: half a dozen dentists, several goons, and three members of pubbie guild [RED].

Okay I've been thinking I should look into actually getting some nice dagger skins to go with my necro. I'm currently using the centurion claws or whatever from HoM out of laziness but does anyone have any suggestions for dagger skins that would make me look even more awesome?

Other necromancers need to get on my level :smuggo:

Completely guessing but it'll probably be the private instance thing that kessex did the first time you enter it and then you'll get kicked to ruined LA or whatever.

If Scarlet is indeed able to be fought to the death by the end of this, we as goons have a moral obligation to finish her off with jars of bees.
