Title: Aion's new Bard class
Post by: Tyrnan on November 15, 2012, 12:01:54 PM
After just witnessing Ard's reaction to this I thought I'd post it here for a laugh...

Honestly, I don't have the words.

The giant penguins doing the running man....   Is that what LSD is like?

Did the girl in a pink tutu just fire a fucking unicorn out of a harp?

Just to make sure we're clear on this, I had to do a double take and make sure this was actually real.  I was wondering if I'd somehow slept in until April when I saw this.

The stupid giggling is by far the worst part.

Personally I loved the giant fucking note dropping out of the sky to fuck bitches up.

Bard was always my favorite class in D&D...but this...this isn't that.  This is K-pop meets lord of the rings...

Just, wow. Words fail me.

I do want to remix it to Gangnam Style, though.

I think it's brilliant, and creative, and cute. I like cute. Also, Korean and Japanese culture -and pop culture- don't make me laugh, they interest me. And the girl in the video is an adult, so in case anyone is thinking about pedo-whatever, I don't see it. Kids are a huge turnoff to me, in all possible instances.

You'd have to use HyunA's version, but otherwise I strongly support this.

She looks about 12 and sounds about 3 to me.

The part they didn't show was the non-stop circle-strafing while hitting 1, 2, 3 repeat every six seconds. 

I honestly don't have much in common with the average person in that game's demographic.

Just what a  :pedobear: would say.

I liked the unicorn catapult.  And someone should mod the falling note attack to a falling grand piano or Acme anvil.

The only thing missing was a twirling transformation sequence into one of those Japanese schoolgirl sailor uniforms.

My EQ Bard could kick all sorts of ass. I only ever fought exactly what I wanted, could avoid entire zones worth of content, and actually enjoyed song twisting, particularly when I could hit that 5th twist on occasion.

This, this is not a Bard. This is some kind mutant Chanter with presumably a Mace wrapped in pedogear.

That last bit is just my Western bias to Eastern aesthetic. But I don't consider that a fault. My 10 year old daughter looks older than that chick, my six year old sounds a lot older, and they both dress a hell of a lot better.

No slight on the game itself. I enjoyed it for a bit, just kinda found it bland and suffering from the usual everything-is-too-goddamned-big/far-apart.

Wait, that wasn't the male character?

Isn't this from the same coven of corporate asshats who (from afar) mismanaged COH's studio into the ground then closed COH to bury their incompetence?

I liked a few of the animations. Overall, what the hell. I'd totally take LSD penguin mez in any game though.

That's a pretty remarkable misinterpretation of what happened to City of Heroes.

I read the comments, chalked it up to cynical F13 over-reaction.

Then I watched the video.   :ye_gods:
