Mad Max With Wizards.  First quote in my sig.  Something I've been looking forward to ever since that quote.
Oh, that one! Didn't recognize the abbreviation.

Definitely looks like one of his random generators.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

What does everyone want from space santa?

Some dead bodies.  Or something passed off as being dangerous actually killing someone.  Or teamkilling having in-game consequences that aren't showers of free items or bodies.  Or an across-the-board price raise to represent the collapse of the galactic economy as well as a large number of manufacturing techniques, and the severe damage to the forge world.

It looks sort of like his Mechanical Muse. Except more engrishy.

Dev's long been of the opinion that people don't die enough in ER, and he wants that for us.
I'm unsure if that's tied to why he tried to nuke Heph or not, which I really want to do more with, it's one of the more wasted RP opportunities in the game in my opinion.

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought of.  Linky for those who joined in the last two years.  And here's a picture of the fully-grown creature.

Unrelated, but in that thread, PW said that ER would end within one to four years--from December 2013.  ER's half life has already passed.  :(

I guess that means MMWW is closer, though.

Yeah, ER's inching ever closer to the end, which now seems it may have been sped up.

Also, I'm introducing a new die. The red "Reality Break" die which I will use for various reasons. It's coming in earlier than I expected.

I remember having a long irc conversation with pw about genetics and how to implement them into rtd format a long while back. Might have been for that thing.



radio betrayed club.

I did no such thing.

ER has an ENDING?
I cannot possibly imagine that circumstance....

All things must eventually end.

*checks watch*

I'd give it another year or two.  At least till it gets to a good point for this to end this iteration.

I mean, whose to say there couldn't be a game in the same universe after this? Or before it?

Mad Max With Wizards.  First quote in my sig.  Something I've been looking forward to ever since that quote.
Here's my question to you: What would you want that to entail?

I'd prefer the airship one, with the living guns and stuff.
Doing it in the universe of that would be easy enough, though the mechanics might be a bit cumbersome.






As per Christmas:

1. Dev's Character's head explodes. Marry Christmas Dev, I grant you death.

2. This egg idea is pretty neat but I feel like having 45 new critters running around would cause some poor wiki gnome to consider pulling a Dev. Maybe someone can think of a good related alternative?

3.Random items and potions are fun and all, but we've done it before. At least I don't want to use the same generator twice...I am working on a new weapon generator...

3 pets, collective for everyone, can go on missions, but only 1 per mission. they are only somewhat obedient, but are actually useful in some way/shape/form. their modified suits include a radio relay/booster, a basic mapping system, and a customized modification for the pet itself. all three of them have the IVAN treatment.

Maybe not all of us get creatures, but give the option to the players to get a randomized or standard item, in addition?  Or some standard but Christmas items.  Space Santa and all.

Then ask for one. May got Piecewise the Lizard by asking the doc for a pet. Just go to one of the various groups of NPC allies on the ship (medbay, science lab, armory, Nyars) and ask for a pet.

And just after Dev and me made an agreement to have him killed after Miya could get to Hep. Welp, that's one thing done with.

Maybe make eggs containing a randomly generated pet an armory item?

As for what to do, maybe a special christmas themed er talk? Ooh, do it in video form, with you wearing a santa hat and a beard.

You could always just allow everyone to get out of M25 and Limbo safe and sound, because now everyone is really just faffing about and doing not much at all there. Isn't the gift of life and freedom the greatest gift of all?

seriously now, as for actual gifts new random weapons could be nice. Though maybe give people something their character can actually use. Santa wouldn't give skeelers to a kid with no legs, would he?

Alternatively, a personalized artifact for everyone, that isn't all that powerful but has a cool/useful effect. Though making an artifact for every player is probably way too much work.

Other than that I don't really know. Some lore tidbits? Eggnog for everyone that got spiked by the Doc? Another ER talk?
