Video Games: The General Discussion & Community Thread Number Two

The new Pokemon game is fun.

The new Pokemon game has performance issues.

Both of these can be true statements.

@Fabricant451

I've had so many experiences with games where it is both simultaneously, lol.

The Overhead

Mass Effect: Harpocrates is a series of stories set in the Mass Effect universe starting in 2183, three years before the devastating invasion of the Milky Way by the threat that will come to be known as the Reapers. Optimistically, the storylines presented will gradually take us through and past the events of the Reaper Invasion.

Players will create individuals who have been recruited as part of a response team tasked with operations that range from search and rescue, investigation, subterfuge, and more.

How Did We Get Involved In This?

This is the question that all six members of the Harpocrates Initiative will be asking themselves sooner or later.

Your character is a specialist. A person who has spent their life trying to figure things out and as a byproduct obtained an assortment of skills that make them one of the very best at what they do and generally being the best at what they do gets guns pointed at them. Often. For one reason or another, your character is either in dire straits or consistently unhappy in whatever that current situation they are in and are receptive to getting a job offer–a discreet, low information job offer in their inbox from the ExoGeni Corporation, a interstellar company headquartered on Eden Prime. It is a curious one, given the peculiarities of the offer to meet with the chief CEO of the company as soon as possible. It doesn’t take long for them to be on route to Eden Prime within days of the message.

The offer, as it turns out, is on a “need-to-know” basis. NDA’s are signed. ExoGeni has a dire situation about an attacked facility of theirs. They need a response team that goes beyond their current operatives and one that is away from the eyes of accountability of both the Systems Alliance and any other governing body. Your character, being an independent contractor, is offered the job of a lifetime but it is also riskier than anything they’ve ever encountered before. Something about the job compels them to say yes beyond the pay. It isn’t long before they are suiting up for a job with five other people. Five other specialists.

And so it begins.

Basically the jist. Trying to see if anyone is up for this. In a Mass Effect mood. Blame people. Declare interest people.

Pariah Online: A Voyage into the Intangible Aether

Location: Mystic Prophecy Chapterhouse, The City-State of Thorinn, Aetheria

Alja’s insistence for the group to essentially get lost was odd, but the Japanese girl wasn’t stupid. Her apathy didn’t mean she didn’t get social cues that people had personal business to handle.

“If you’re sure.” Rael uttered, as she took a disinterested breath.

She eyed Benkei and Kazuki, not sure if Alja’s insistence was going to work on them, but then again the two of them really didn’t want to be in Mystic Prophecy’s chapterhouse much to begin with, so maybe Alja’s suggestion for them to either meet her there or do something else. Rael thought back to Benkei’s comments on the road. He wanted to eye apprenticeships. It was something. Perhaps Kazuki had something he wanted to do instead, which given Luci was less than seven feet from him, was probably the case.

“Thanks Luci. We’ll keep that in mind.” She managed, “Benkei, Kazuki. We done here?”

Steal Away The Light

Location: Uhladein, Eastern Marches

“You can thank the void that you have a use in this world.” Galiel glared at the young woman, unamused by her petulant angst.

The life she had chosen was harsh and necessary, but it was one she had taken into her hands away from a life of luxury in the capital. Of the hunters he had met before the horde of void met with Uhladein’s walls she had been one of two he knew by reputation alone. And she was the worst of them all–a Midnosian.

Uhladein had always been significant and independent. It served as the western fortress as part of Edelen, a buffer state between Midnos and Aulrithia. Since Aulrithia’s fall to the void it became even more important as the void swallowed more and more of the imperial heartlands. He had been a young man when that day happened. Any sort of empathy he had for anyone, let alone soulless weapons crafted by dark magicks was null. This wasn’t to say he didn’t appreciate the void hunters, but their sacrifice was something that wasn’t forced on them. It was their choice, whoever they were before. Galiel was a pyromancer and an old one at that. Had he not been he would not have survived his involvement in the war and he wouldn’t be the most important person in the city as it stood.

Without pyromancers the void would have everything. In his view, women like Quinnlash should know their place.

His eyes moved back to the flame as the younger pyromancers took to tending to it. The fire elemental’s crystalline core glowing bright and shooting flame into the sky. Most of his apprentices were young, but they would get over their nerves. He just hoped the next time the void struck at them they would have steel in their resolve instead of mud.

He moved to one of the window arches as he looked across the city. There would be a need of geomancers to repair the damages. He would have to make a request as everything in the stronghold of a city got back to normal.

“I’m sure the Pyromancer-Queen would be disappointed if she heard you talking to me like this.” He coldly remarked as he looked toward the walls. “I’d be quick to tell her if you choose to keep irritating me. Now, be a good girl, and go downstairs and convene with the others. I’ll have your orders soon.”
