But they get less stuff

i.e. Wintersday Event. All the Grenth groupies got killed, while Dwayna huggers were basked with gifts and glory

Down with the Darkside! Up with the Lightside!

What are the ramifications (if any) of making the choice not to take a side ?

You get killed by faction extremeists. You and your children are taken out into a field, forced to lay face-down in the grass while Meteor Shower is summoned upon THEE!

That was a good crack
I say that they take Gwen and Your family and put them in a room.
No AOE nerf to save them now

Sorry to bring up an old point, but there are many definitions and instances of Eidolons that far predate Farscape. The most general definition being "the astral double of a living being." Not to put down either you or the show (which I thouroughly enjoyed), but I just wanted to point out that almost everything in sci-fi and fantasy has either mythological or historical roots.

As far as what faction I'd prefer, it's hard to say. Like others, I'd have to look at their philosophies first. If ti's going to be one of those "black and white" scenarios, I'd guess (based on the sound of their names) the Luxons would be the good guys while the Kurziks would most likely be the antagonists. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Shadowmorn · Jan 08, 2006, 01:38 AM // 01:38

I'm probably with Luxon, but what differences will these factions make? You can still be in the same guilds and parties as the opposite faction, right?

zoozoc · Jan 08, 2006, 05:14 AM // 05:14

well the truth is we know very little about either faction or how they will work. But the idea has a lot going for it.

True, you're probably thinking of the famous ancient Egyptian temple of Luxor in southern Egypt.

Since Vegas is full of foreign inspiration, such as Pyramids, Venician style hotels and crap, I expect there probably are a fair number of places named Luxor after the place I mentioned above.

Personally, I've never been to Vegas, nor even America for that matter, but from what I've seen of it - Vegas - (pics in books, TV, internet, immitations on GTA San Andreas) I think it's a load 'a crap.<----------off-topic
/sorry to those here who live in Vegas, I'll say at least your and your houses and etc. aren't crap.

- I'm also not even in the remotest concerned of choosing a side yet until we have a good amount of information.

I still dont get what Luxon and Kurzick are... ? :| I read the article but I cant figure it out lol

Racthoh · Jan 08, 2006, 11:47 AM // 11:47

If Tv and movies have taught us nothing, it is that the evil side always has the cool goodies. So whichever one is more evil gets my vote.

Lexar · Jan 08, 2006, 01:39 PM // 13:39

I know about Luxor, besides, god knows I've been called that so many time in-game..

Rayea · Jan 08, 2006, 07:07 PM // 19:07

ah, but FF had eidiolon befor farscape....
(ff9)

however, im glad im not the only one that thought of farscape when i read the name luxon ^^

will have to wait it out to see which is bette, but i guess it might be more like AO and Clan verses Omni? (in that Omni got more stuff/better stuff but Clan were nicer) hehe?

personaly, i hope they have a Neutral in there too..i HATE >.< it when i have to side and theres not much between the two...
i mean i dont mind Houses and what have you, but i have a pathalogical dislike for anything that mean i get whacked for just being in the wrong place and being on the wrong side...

i wanna wander about and sell shtick to both sides

not have to stay in my designated sides area hehe.

ah..but dosent it say that evil always wins cause good is dumb

true, evil usually does get the niftyest stuff, but then again, they get saddled with idiot henchfellows (not realy related to ours, since they have names and arent called *henchman #1* lol) and have to laugh maniacaly or pose or relpy when the hero asks 'since your going to kill me, will you at least tell me of your insideous plot?' hahaha.

*reminds me to look up top 100 evil overlord ideas again....might come in handy*
