  1. Kinda funny my husband just got new orders to the East Coast. We live in WA state right now, and we're both on BC... which is The Hot Prospect... I think I'll just start moving my characters over...
  2. If I'm paying for something... I usually enjoy it. While I haven't been subbed the ENTIRE time because I came from WoW after Cataclysm with a raiding mentality. I do like swtor, and pay for it when I get the urge to play. I was a bioware fan alongside WoW, so I already had an idea of what to expect. If I'm not playing with my husband, then I'm soloing. And I'm perfectly happy with that. I was an altoholic in WoW, too. I'm not particularly happy with the story right now, and I'm questioning Bioware's choices with stuff. But they haven't shoved me down a hole yet. So I'll trust them for now
  3. I'm from Texas. Born in Corpus Christi. I'm glad the swtor dev team is safe. Family and friends, too. It's times like these where I don't like being so far from my family. My younger brother goes to college at A&M in Galveston. He was going to go back for his 2nd semester, but opted to stay with our parents a while longer. Wise choice. My younger sister, and essentially the entire rest of my family... lives in San Antonio. Before my husband joined the Navy, we lived there as well. SAT doesn't flood well My grandma and younger sister live on the northside, in Leon Valley. Once the creek goes over, they'll be stuck for a while. Fortunately my grandparents bought a house on top of one of the bajillion hills.
  4. Andromeda wasn't that bad, and that's coming from someone who preordered the Deluxe Edition... twice. Because my deployed (at the time) husband wanted it, too. It just didn't feel like Mass Effect to me. Felt like it was missing something, and that really bugged me. There was no 'life' to it, I guess. It was kind of like I ordered ice cream, but I got the sugar free version instead. I'm a type 1 Diabetic, too. That stuff is disgusting. And I had the same disappointed feeling afterwards with MEA. I didn't even care about the animations. Mostly because I'm used to Bioware's weird wonky animations in every game ever. My issue was the CC, and even with the 'improvements'... it was still a pain to create a decent looking Ryder. And the default Sara wasn't up my alley. None of the romances were really my type either. I wanted to romance certain NPCs, not my companions Evfra and Kandros, being two of them. It's good for a once through, but... I got bored with my 2nd playthrough. Haven't touched it since. The DLC thing does have me concerned for the future though Especially for Dragon Age, and it makes me worried about Bioware. If... certain things don't happen with a certain somebody, maybe being a third agent/-insertdecentexplanationhere-. I'm going to be done with swtor, and act like it never happened.
  5. Yeah... close enough for the jokes. I get it quite a bit I wouldn't have gotten it so fast if I hadn't seen TCW though. Featured pretty heavily a few times. I also think it was the planet Aayla Secura was killed on.
  6. Make me a third. On top of it all... my name is also a meme (Felicia). So I totally understand getting sick of hearing that stuff. 'Bye Felicia' got really old after the 3rd time. It gets butchered really easily, too. Not sure why Anyway... I'm NOT happy about anything I've read. It's funny because I resubbed before I did any light reddit reading, and found out about 20 minutes after. And that's what I do, anyway... resub for the updates, then just cancel it.
  7. I like all of them I'm not picky. I'm also 28. Even with the wooden acting in the prequel trilogy and Anakin's red flag inducing courtship with Padme... I still enjoyed it. Mostly because my husband and I enjoy making fun of AoTC. Doesn't really take away my enjoyment of the film though. I also LOVE TCW and Rebels. I've read a good chunk of the books, too. I also enjoy KOTOR I/II, and I like swtor. I LOVE Star Wars. Somethings should just be that basic. I never understood all the arguing and stuff. If you don't like something, then don't watch it. If you do, just watch it and get on with your life.
  8. Some of the races get special dialogue. I know a cyborg trooper isn't 'fresh from the academy', but was actually already a soldier that fought a lot of battles on the mid-rim. Heard that in a convo with Aric Jorgan. Miraluka JKs also get one when fighting one of Darth Angral's apprentices. It's been a while since I did the story. Essentially the dude is hiding, and he's like... 'You can't see me!' and the Miraluka simply says, 'I don't need to see you. I can smell you.' Which made me chuckle lol Doesn't surprise me that Zabraks get one either. Kinda cool
  9. I was actually just wondering about that the other day... along those lines... Are we gonna have to worry about a Virgo, Capricorn, Libra, Taurus, Cancer, Saggitarius, Leo, Aquarius, and Pisces? That's 9 more AI like things that could cause issues across the galaxy in various forms My husband said it as much, too... 'Where are the other ones?' I doubt they'll do anything with it. I hope they won't, but I'll be somewhat amused if they do.
  10. I got extremely lucky several months ago and found the Dramatic extrovert upper armor box for 50k credits. It was also 3AM, and I thought I had bought the ENTIRE set. But... beggars can't be choosers... as the chest piece is easily the most expensive piece on my server I was able to get the rest of it pretty quickly... except for the helm. Which then eluded me for the next 3 months. There was NEVER one up, and I refused to buy the entire armor set for some 60 million credits. I had CC saved up, so I decided to check out Harbinger's GTN and saw the helm for 3 million. Didn't even think about it... just did. Transferred the 3 million with the character, made a new one... and sent the helm back to BC. Set complete. One before that was the Sith Recluse set. But I bought that BEFORE it disappeared off the market. I'm glad I spent 15 million on it... The only thing now I'd want is one of the hover thrones. But I can't justify spending 80 million on a mount. My husband would. But not me... but I did spend 3 million on the last kowakian monkey-lizard I needed. So who am I to talk?
  11. DK general chat is worse than WoW Trade/Barrens chat COMBINED. At least back in the old days of WoW. Trade chat is still like that... but at least you get complete silence in the Barrens nowadays. I was on DK just the other day, and was appalled at the vitriol. I've gotten in habit just closing chat all together. I'm sorry you didn't get a straight answer, OP. BC, while one of the smaller servers, has a fairly helpful community. Every time someone asks questions. There are the trolls, yes, but people do answer them.
  12. Unless he got her the Ultimate edition... just comes with all the DLC, including the expansion. But yeah, the most important DLC for DA:O is definitely Witch Hunt. And the xpac for it, Awakening, is all right. But felt really rushed to me. It was good, but disjointed. But the characters are memorable, and sets up some interesting lore for the next two installments. Particularly the Architect. I also cannot express how useful the Wardens keep dlc is. And Stone Prisoner, too. Shale is awesome, and she can fill all 3 combat roles, too. Depending on how you spec her. For Dragon Age 2; both dlc are good. Mark of the Assassin is hilarious. And Legacy was a decent ending for it... with probably one of the most challenging boss fights I've done. And Inquisition is good, too. All the DLC add some kind of narrative value to the game. Descent is mentioned in Trespasser. And Jaws of Hakkon, despite the major GRRRR over it, was pretty good, too. I enjoyed the challenge, and there were puzzles in them! Even a tower of hanoi which I was overjoyed to see
  13. There are 4 of them in-game already... even one that's frozen in carbonite. I have all of them. They even have their evil, amused little giggle.
  14. Morrigan's not the actual healer. Like someone else said... head to the circle tower asap, and get Wynne. She's the healer of the game. And they're right, too. Do not bring Morrigan, or side with Cullen. Siding with him at the very end against the mages will make Wynne attack you. My husband did that on accident his first play through... all I heard from him in that moment was... 'NOOOOO!!! I DECAPITATED HER!!!!'... he got a deathblow on her. It was brutal... The Fade also sucks. I'd just cheat, and use a walkthrough. I was in there for hours trying to figure it out. But I'm not very good at those types of things. The puzzles, yes. Give me a tower of hanoi, I'll solve it. But keep me out of the Fade. And the brothel... lol... Have fun in there. The 'Surprise Me!' option gets interesting. If you have wardens keep dlc, you get a really nice set of armor from that. It also starts a random event with a superman reference where you get starmetal. For easily the best sword in the game. It also gives you access to a storage chest. Stone prisoner is also really good. Shale is... brilliant.
  15. It can be a hassle to learn. But once you get it down, it's an awesome game. It's actually my least favorite of the 3 combat wise. DA:I is a good mix of the first two. I had the hardest time playing mage, and the easiest time playing a DW warrior. Once you get access to the main story line missions... you may want to go pick up Wynne from the circle tower ASAP. She's the healer. If you've ever played WoW, it's like that. But clunkier and slower, not an MMO obviously. It's a spiritual successor to Baldurs Gate. You can also set their AI. Alistair set up correctly is a great tank, and Morrigan is pretty beastly, too (lol shapeshifting pun... nevermind...). There's a lot of stuff online about it. There's LOTS of mods, too, if you're playing on PC. I'd check out the /r dragonage subreddit. People are super friendly over there They'd be willing to give you all sorts of tips. There's a lot, and I'd go off on a long rambling tangent. I don't even know where to begin There's also the wiki site for it, which is also really helpful.
