Post have been light because … well, because there’s (a) not been a lot of news from the Dev front, and (b) my playing has been on the light side.
There has been some, though.
Kitsune-chan is a new alt on [lost track of which server]. She’s mean to be a fox spirit, and so is an Illusion/Rad Controller, complete with fox ears, feral fore-arms, t-shirt, jeans, and cowboy boots. She’s actually a lot of fun, and I’m remembering why I enjoyed running Psi-clone so much. She’s teamed up with Margie’s Ex-Terra, a Spines Scrapper.
I’ve also been playing a lot with Old Saucy Jack, my Ripper-based BS/Regen Scrapper, complete with long trench coat, bow tie, top had, and mutton chops. He’s fun to play, and he’s actually been invited into a rather enjoyable SG — “Mid-Life Crisis,” touted as a group of 30s-40s (I still qualify) players. I was impressed (before I actually joined) by the relative maturity of play (one of the few FrostFires I’ve been on where there wasn’t someone running ahead drawing multi-group aggro), and it’s been rather pleasant having that conversational fun. Plus, as a solo alt, it’s a low-stress play time (vs. when I play with Margie which, while enjoyable because she is an excellent player, has me actually worried about how things are going with her much more than when I’m in a PUG).
So, anyway, I am playing a bit. Just not a lot startling to say outside of comments on recent posts.
