I was checking out the G3 screenshots (again, since there's nothing else to do before the game comes out) when I noticed the guardian graphic in several of the screens looked distinctly female. Perhaps this means a choice for a male or female guardian at last. -------------------- Milla-Displacer Beastie This is also a good site Posts: 650 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

What about male agent? I don't see them on any of the GF3 screenshot. -------------------- If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Posts: 90 | Registered: Wednesday, March 23 2005 08:00 |

I'd play a female shaper. But what about a female fyora/cryoa/etc? You know what they say about the female of the species... -------------------- Pathological Jerk Jerking at Spiderweb since 1999 Posts: 143 | Registered: Sunday, April 18 2004 07:00 |

Kind of sort of in topic but not really: Why can Agents change their colors? Is this a dye? Is this part of whatever training or thingy that they undergo when they become Agents? -------------------- quote:Random Jack Vance Quote Manual Generator Apparatus (Cugel's Saga) Posts: 604 | Registered: Sunday, June 20 2004 07:00 |

The Agent is distinctly female and the Guardian distinctly male, but I felt okay playing either. It would be nice to have an option, but it doesn't bother me. Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |

I originally played as a Shaper first time through both games, but during repeated playings as a Guardian and Agent, I've found that an Agent suits my playing style best — combat and magic, no shaping. The fact that the Agent graphic is female doesn't bother me one bit. In fact, when I play as an Agent I sort of pretend I'm a female character. And before any of you out there get any ideas, no, I don't bend both ways. If I can read an SF book, written from the point of view of an intelligent squid-like creature that reproduces via fission — and can comfortably put myself in its place throughout the story, reading it as if I were the central character and vicarious experiencing their adventure — then putting myself in the place of a female central character can't be too much of a stretch. I do however think that graphics for female Guardians and male Agents would be a good idea, if only to reflect the fact that such professions aren't gender-specific in Shaper society.

That is a male Guardian graphic. He's just very muscular. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Well, in that case, he's got oddly-shaped muscles in very strange places! Posts: 907 | Registered: Monday, July 15 2002 07:00 |

Who knows, maybe the reason guardians have misplaced muscles is the same reason that an agent can somehow change colors..., or maybe its all part of training. -------------------- Learn from others mistakes. Its safer and more entertaining than learning on your own. Posts: 100 | Registered: Wednesday, January 5 2005 08:00 |

It may be difficult to draw the muscles to be more than two-dimensional without them looking a little like breasts. Posts: 2032 | Registered: Wednesday, January 26 2005 08:00 |

I think the most likely explanation is that this particular Guardian fell prey to one of Barzahl's infamous practical-joke canisters... UNSUSPECTING GUARDIAN: "So, this canister will make me incredibly buff, right?" BARZAHL: "Yes indeed. This is how I reward all who faithfully follow me. It will give you power beyond all your wildest imaginings." UNSUSPECTING GUARDIAN then with quavering hands eagerly reaches forward and breaks the fragile glass top, reveling in the flow of augmentation goo as it spreads over his body, changing him. UNSUSPECTING GUARDIAN then steps back to admire his new physique. "Hey, what the he--" BARZAHL: <uncontrollabe laughter> Ah, that old joker! Always the mischievous one. Guaranteed to break the ice at parties. :P Posts: 907 | Registered: Monday, July 15 2002 07:00 |

If you simply learned to get along with the community and learn what they do and don't like (also possibly obtain some decent grammar) then you'd feel far more at home and people would accept you better. Also, you remind me a heck of a lot of ice drake and possibly are him. Posts: 776 | Registered: Friday, July 4 2003 07:00 |

There is no need to insult the kid in that way, Kingy. Green Kid: you've been here long enough to know that nobody likes people to revive topics, and specially if it is to add "that was funny" to it. I'm sorry if you feel underappreciated, and I would really hate to see you gone. It is hard to adjust to a community that has this many old active members; nonetheless, you have to try harder in order to make it in here. You should learn to go by the community's rules: no double posting, no reviving old topics, no insulting, no spammming, etc. I would hate to see you leave, so just try to make a greater effort. If not, Nice To Meet You !!!! and take care. [ Thursday, October 06, 2005 09:00: Message edited by: Marlenny ] Posts: 1035 | Registered: Friday, April 1 2005 08:00 |
