IMPRESSIONS.

I'm really digging Hallifax so far. I'm not really sure what I was expecting given how it was presented in the histories, but I certainly like its execution. It strikes me as the proverbial "world of tomorrow": obsessed with progress, but in a way that's much more clean, sanitized and idealized than the Magnagoran "industrial revolution" vibe. Some people have likened Cririk's "everyone must join the Collective" stance to the Borg or real life communism, but I view it more akin to ants, albeit ants with much greater drive than the toenail-carrying little bugs we're used to. The work ethic of an ant married with a scientists rationality and zest for knowledge: that could be a very potent mix. I'm also interested to note that a lot of the guards seem to be trills, as I was expecting them to be the obvious choices for the mage/guardian specs. An airborne warrior could be an interesting idea, though. (And there's always the possibility that both trill and lucidian will recieve specializations for all Hallifaxian classes, though I think this less likely.)

Overall: pretty rad, man.

Aeromancy is looking strikingly familiar to the skillset I wrote up long ago haha. Coincidence? At least in cosmetic terms.

I just can't wait for their Knight class to be released!

A week? More like an hour or so.

All the custodians need to be shot, seriously this is like the second hour of trying to do this one friggen quest because they reset minutes after they recover from influencing but still stay influenced.
Jalain2009-12-23 01:30:26
I swear there are people trying to sabotage us by influencing the peeps wrongly.
Unknown2009-12-23 02:00:46
Certain people going out of their way to delay the City opening.

Really? Just...really?
Jalain2009-12-23 02:04:52
Either that or we're going to be plagued by utter morons joining the city.

I sort of hope for the sabotage.

No, a certain somebody stole the powergem that we were going to use to kick-start the nexus.

As you arrive, you notice several slaves and Researcher Inix Aalin preparing the heliotrope sculpture for transportation. With a crackle of energy, the Amethyst Generator pulses rhythmically.

The air itself crackles and pops only moments before a bolt of amethyst energy streaks out, consuming the nearby sculpture of lavender crystal. The pillar flares and begins to calm, though a latent flare of energy remains.
The Over City flickers briefly as the Amethyst Generator reaches substantive levels of energy.

The Over City of Hallifax glistens with sudden power as a myriad of colours race through its crystalline infrastructure, flashing with a dazzling incandescence. Slowly the energy begins to turn clear, looking as if it were creeping up from the Lower Wards.

A pulsating brilliance gleams from the tallest of the spires in the City of Hallifax, the rest of the spires soon joining it in its dazzling radiance. A crackling field of energy appears to form about the city, quickly fading into transparency.


Best sight ever

Oh man, Gaudiguch hasn't even OPENED and Hallifax is already griefing it. Man, this might have higher grief levels than Glom vs. the world.

It seriously is. >.>

After 5 RL years of waiting Gaudiguch is finally here!

So to everyone who doubted us, who mocked us, who persecuted us...ha!

I don't care what you conservatives have to say, because you've been bitching and moaning about the lost cities from the beginning and were too selfish to welcome change.

So big a thank you to Estarra and a big middle finger to those who tried to bring us down!

I feel strangely drawn to Gaudiguch O_O Anyone know what the cosmic denizens are for them?

Remember the spix and the hekoskeri and morribles?

Yeah. It's them.
