Curse

.. does it bother anyone else that Togo asks the kid -why- he's crying as the corpse or the Afflicted sits there, rotting?

Ignoring the fact I want to hit the kid in the face, I figured it was pretty obvious to all why the kid was crying. Assuming Togo was just trying to be a pal, though, the least he could've done was walked the kid away from the body.

Sigh. ;P

As much as I love Factions, it's nice to know Anet still goofs with story here and there.

This is about as awesome as the capital of Ascalon being outside of the Great Wall -and- being under attack -but- nobody knows about it.

Well, people were tougher back then.

I thought it was just retarded because the kid freaking saw it all then says it was a dream when he knew it wasn't a dream. Dumbest thing I ever saw, I seriously felt like screaming at him.

The cutscenes in factions are so bad, at time i just couldnt help but laugh.

I dont think there has been many cutscenes where some minion or monster, wasnt attacking an NPC in the cini the whole time through. Its just funny watching a cini with shiro in it, and the whole time a lone minion is whacking him as he speaks

Then there the chorigraphy of the fightscene beetween shiro and the ghost assasin (name?), ug.

heres another goof for you guys, try beating it with a tyrian character, and when you get to the end and you are walking through divine path talk to a bunch of the npc's, they will reference being in the monestary with you, and how pleased they are to have trained with you. and if you go to the temple and talk to togo's ghost he will say that he always knew you would be a great hero from the day you started training under him as a child at the monestary.

atleast they could have changed it for tyrian chars to say something like "thanks for coming here with mehnlo to help us

I've had the wrong cutscene play. You know in the first flashback cutscene, where Shiro goes to talk to the fortune teller, and she tells him of his impending doom? Well, the 2nd time seeing that cutscene, I've had the text and voice be correct, but the animation was one flashback cutscene ahead, and the fortune teller goes through her death throes over and over again throughout the cutscene.

Big plothole for me (I haven't beaten the pve game yet) - is that Shiro WAVES HIS HAND and you die for real in one the first mainland missions and the envoys have to grant you life......

Why doesn't he just do that later on...it isn't because you are "closer to the stars" - in the story line, all "Closer to the stars" is advertised to you as is a way to SEE shiro. Doesn't mean he can't just show up at ANY time during the story and just instant-death you again..

Maybe in a world of giant insects (mantid), giant snakes (naga), giant upright walking turtles (kappa), Yeti, humanoid birds (tengu) and various other monsters, kids aren't easily scared?

Cause the Afflicted was his father....?

whenever I feel a bit down I go do a solo infuse run.
That cutscene will never get old for me.

Any normal kid would have tried to run away, screaming of horror, but no; This kid just wanted a chat about a dream

konohamaru heaven · May 12, 2006, 04:29 PM // 16:29

The kid I think Knew what happened hes scared, becasue in his dream he foreseen what was happening you see he mentions hows all the sickened were as the child said it angery and turned them aginst each other how all the animals once calm and peaceful turned savage and upset. I think the fact what happened in his dream came true is what really scared him and he decided to tell Master Togo (the most trustworthy person on the Island) everything and also he even says minster Cho was the most angery of all.

Maybe he needs to get a morale boost for it to recharge. It's like the opposite of a rez signet... KILL SIGNET!

Wow, you are very smart are you? You realize the nolani academy mission went from north to SOUTH, which means Rin is behind the wall on the right side.

Please check your facts before making rash statements.

Rin is behind the wall.

Yeah I was cracking up to at that cutscene with the kid. I've learned kids are fricken stupid in GW... and stay away from them... they are all evil... EVIL I TELLS YA!

I found some girl saying she was kidnapped and wanted my help... yeah right. The moment I agreed... 20 people attacked me. I think she wanted me dead and used her cuteness to trick me... I took her back to her father after a very near loss of life.
