I really love the look on that game :)

Have some questions.... are it mostly humanoids or non humanoids you kill (like beast, mechanics etc?)

Is it possible to stay completly solo.. aka play the game like a non online game without any interaction from others?

it is an online game much like EQ and WoW etc so theres no real 'alone' function.

the enemies consists of all types, humans,humanoids,beasts and monsters etc. it seems to be a reasonably even split between the types from my "personal" experience.

you can play through most of your personal story solo exept for the big finale and some side stuff involving the members of Destiny's Edge which are dungeon quests.

What Nef said- it's a very solo-friendly game, though a few quests might require a bit of help. Luckily, you can sort of quest along with people without needing to talk to them, as all tags are shared- so if someone is attacking a boss and you run up to help, you'll get loot too even though they got the first hit. Many people seem willing to wordlessly help with stuff even if they're not on the same quest- it's really nice!

Monsters are all sorts of things. While the main enemy factions are mostly humanoid, there are tons of beasts, mechanicals, and other stuff to fight- it's pretty nicely mixed up.

I have a random assortment of pics today. Sorry I always post so many. >.< I often stop what I'm doing to take screen shots of various things. I can't help it!

Nothing specific here, just what I thought was a neat variety of jungle flora: trees, flowers, mosses, grasses, etc.
Image

I thought these huge pink flowers were pretty. :)
Image

A vista of Briarthorn Den that I took a while back and forgot to post.
Image

The sylvari certainly do love their flower lamps and bridges! I don't mind, I think it's very pretty!
Image

I think I bought an item on Glock that turned him into a jellyfish. They're very neat-looking in this game.
Image

Some gorgeous rainbow-colored ferns that I happened to notice tonight. I couldn't really get a good picture because they were on cliffs.
Image

And lastly, the mandatory Dhaegan pic! I now have a full set of Swindler gear. Nothing too fancy, but it's better than what I had before. XD

Hi I'm Lupis and oh gods help me I can't ever decide on a warrior I remade mine again help

Image

I'll get a better picture of him soon, but this week's Warrior is Brand Scornblaze. I guess Slyvari and me just don't work, despite how much I like them. Brand is a burn victim (he thinks his name is just grossly ironic) and apparently he has a messed up left eye, which I didn't even notice until I looked closely- it doesn't have a pupil.

At least he has a personality, which Leth lacked.

Mostly landscape pictures today- Frostgorge Sound is one of the most astoundingly beautiful zones I've seen. The caves, the surface, the lakes... Everything is amazing!

I seriously adore the Dredge city, the twisting catwalks, pipes, steam...

Wow, that picture with the giant iceberg (if you can call it that) is really, really pretty. I look forward to seeing that zone for myself now!

Well, so far I really like Brand. I gave in and got a hairstyle kit for him today, because I really wanted one of the new male charr styles- I don't regret it!

Image

Seriously, such a cool hair style.

Image

Brand showing off what I like to think of as his burn scars (they're very pink in daylight, like skin).

I agree - that hairstyle is awesome!!! I tried to talk my husband into getting it, but I don't think he cares about appearance as much as I do. His character's always wearing a helmet anyway, so I suppose it doesn't matter.

With the release of new faces in the Total Makeover Kits from the Black Lion store, as well as 40% off of one for yourself if you gift one to someone else, I knew I had to get one. Initially I planned on using the kit for another character, but none of the new faces really seemed to fit my characters. However, I started playing with Ioleandre's features, and ended up really liking how one of them looked. Soooo, I went with it. ^.^ She looks much more necromancerish in my opinion. Naturally, I had to take screen shots! Oh, and I also bought the Cultural Tier 1 for her, and I loooooove how she looks now. She looks so complete! :3

Image

I love the little beads and stuff - the details are great!
Image

Derpy face!
Image

I had a skeleton tonic sitting in my bag, so naturally the only thing I could do with it was use it and dance!
Image

...and swim!

Most of the new faces are kind of weird, but I'm sure I'll get used to them once I start seeing people that can tweak them to look good.

I did remake Ecco with one of the new faces. (Old look here.)
Image
Image
This is actually a male face, but I figured it is androgynous enough that I still see Ecco as a female.

Also got the Grenth Hood Skin on Saamid.

Ha! That hood is great on Saamid! And yeah, some of the faces I didn't like as well in person as I did in the previews from facebook. Still, I like the one I got, and that's good enough for me. Woot! :D
