I just started playing Mad Ambition and was struck by how Fort Ivalice seems to be manned entirely by escapees from the psych ward. Including you. Just out of curiousity, is it all explained later or did TM just want to express himself by filling his scenario with rather colorful NPCs? -------------------- Take the Personality Test!

You are not the first to notice this. It's probably best not to ask too many questions about TM's artistic motivations. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Ok, I've played a bit more and now at least there is a reason why the fort overflows with people crying for a therapist. Still, it makes you wonder a bit... -------------------- Take the Personality Test! Deep down, you wish you were a stick figure. Posts: 1629 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00 |

The guys brilliant. He makes brilliant scenarios and is incredibly funny when not banned. I don't really want to question why he is like that, because do we honestly want to know, but I am glad for it. Posts: 776 | Registered: Friday, July 4 2003 07:00 |

Ah. A couple more minutes of playing gets you to the the dialoge that takes you out of the weirdness and into what is starting to look like like a well done story. -------------------- Take the Personality Test!
