I think that Yuu wants to make the galaxy like something out of an anime.
As I've said before: I. DID. NOT. BASE. IT. ON. ANIME.
The Terran-Ixians, if they were to be based on anything, were equal parts the Scrin and their tripods, and allegories of some interpretations of Jewish Mythology.
As you can see, the former is based ultimately from the American B-Movie
Monolith Monsters and H. G. Wells'
The War of the Worlds.The former, on the other hand is from South West Asia.
Totally not anime.
He's always super happy and friendly, but the sheer scale of what he's making makes me think that he has no idea what he's talking about.
Unless you'd cared to ask exactly why they're that large.
From what MartyK once told me, Yuu first joined the Spore forums back in the Communicant Wars. He immediately proceeded to make up incredibly overpowered species with incredibly overpowered technology, and everybody naturally called him out on it.
While I do admit that they did start out somewhat powerful and I wasn't, or ever will be, an uber 1337 RPer like Patman, there is the fact that virtually everyone, maybe except for Plank of Wood, overlooked the fact that their only foothold in the galaxy was a lone and heavily damaged ship manned by a decimated crew and under the command of a partially decapitated collection of surviving officers.
They were by no means intended to be overpowered, especially considering the fact that I purposely gave them built-in idiot balls and posted a method to kill said lone ship.
You could blame me for using my noobishness to make them on par with the others from the get-go (instead of rising from the totem pole), maybe, but making it a no-win situation? Nope.
And by the time of the RG, I specifically moved the TI's back to their original story,
on the other side of the universe no less, specifically to avoid any further issues like this.
The whole Nameless LAC issue is ignoring one fundamental thing as to why they're here:
They're the villains of the current arc. It's not like I'm gonna keep them here
forever.Seriously, guys, chill out.
My defining RP race is, and for the foreseeable future will remain to be,
the Orealyianis. Not the Terran-Ixians, the Nameless, nor any other nation of equal standing from the EU.
(squid creatures that turn entire galaxies pink and worship pink, just because!)
Then you need to re-read their description, then, cause certainly do not do this "just because".
In case you don't get it, they're basically waging a space Jihad against what they deem to be imperfect, ie. everything that's not drowning in pink.
And then there's that heavy implication that, to the eyes of non-Versavol, they've become a race of neurotics.hi
If they really did have hundreds of ships that size, the galaxy would fold like a human spine on Gliese 581 d.
Even all the Nameless' feats are but small fry compared to some of
the other guys out there.He's been watching too much Tengen Toppen Gorgan Laragganananan.
I only ran through it once, thank you very much.
I'm more of a slice of life / comedy guy. And if I ever watch robots, it's mostly Macross.
That, and it's not like I only watch Eastern Animation.
Pretty soon he'll start making galaxy-sized ships that shoot galaxies.
Been there, done that.
Of course, not in this RP verse.
However, I'm fairly certain that most you guys would love to insinuate that I would, even though I won't.Not to be hating, but stuff like that is pretty godmoddy. And that's terrible.
You know what's terrible?
People not getting the point. >_>
