Strange happenings

Have you guys played Factions and noticed creepy things that go on there?

In the Nahpui Quarter, in a dark little corner behind the henchies, I can see an empty rocking chair slowly rocking itself away.



Stuff like that freak me out. Like there's ghosts in Cantha and you can't see them. Well, excluding the envoys of course.

So, anything else you guys have seen that's freaky?

That's probably a reference to every ghost based movie ever.

Argh what next...clowns!?! *covers eyes*

A GW chapter based on a horror theme would be awesome

Technically we *can't* see the envoys until we die, and when we come back to life we can't see the envoys until we are Wei No Su - Closer to the Stars.

The 'creep' factor seems to have been turned up a notch in Factions. For a relative comparison, look at the ranger spirits and the ritualist ones. Or how about some of the city quests, where you're asked to find out what's happening to missing bodies? And that one quest where a little girl is taken from her father as payment for a debt?!

Some of the NPC conversations also seem to mistake the 'creep factor' for 'flavor.' In Kurzick territory there is a 'chef' collector whose dialogie is, at best, mildly disturbing. Here's the GuildWiki link, if you're curious: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Chef_Armand

I've got to admit the kid being taken is a bit disturbing...

What with that and Gwen's thing of hanging around grown ups and following them into the woods... ?!?

When programmers get bored.

If there're clowns anywhere, I'm outta here.

Agreed.

Shouldn't it just be the wind? We have snow effects , cherry blossoms falling from the sky, why not wind?

I think you walked into it, making it rock, seeing there's footprints back the chair!

Pffft... If there are ever clowns in the game, i'll be farming them 24/7. DIE DIE DIE!!! =)

What do the clowns drop? Giant shoes?

Giant shoes, red noses, baloon animals, etc

That was Gwen walking!

How do you describe male mesmers then??

There may not be clowns, but there is a mime... *Shivers*

Mimes are a lesser evil. Still evil though.
