    Never in my case, because for some reason I am terrible at remembering to use buffs in almost any game you can mention. I just sort of. Hoard them until I remember I'm not using them, then sell half of them just in case I need to use some.

    Seriously, I think the only game that's gotten me to use buffing items in ages is Fallout 4, and only because that game occasionally can make you go "OKAY WOW NO I NEED ALL THE DRUGS THANKS." if you wander into the wrong area.

    The Crew Trade Skills vendor has a little sign advising adventurers to store their materials SEPARATELY from their buffs. XD

    (Meanwhile Hancock is like did someone say drugs? Cause I got drugs. Here, have some! They're on me. : ) )

    DIABETUS HARKONEN, THE EMPIRE'S WRATH :D :D :D

    Names that are also puns are great, but I get RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED when I see a name that's a reference to another science fiction or fantasy franchise. I saw an Agent named Johnny Mn'emonic on Hutta yesterday while playing with Aviari, and it made me SO HAPPY. I love that movie, and I'm glad people remember it.

    (Yes they're all over you Hancock XD)

    So far today I've only seen an E'mma Frost (pretty decent match!) but oh my heck, I saw the best He-Man a while ago, who was part of a Guild called Masters of the Universe. It was amazing.

    I will forever hold a certain Trooper dear to my heart, from way back in the first months of the game.

    Fat Miraluka with the glasses mask, slicked dark hair.

    In a pure white, caped outfit with purple trim.

    His name was Elvis.

    Finally changed my icon to something more relevant to what I'm doing now. Also, something easier to visually interpret. This is a good day.

    By the way, Vowrawn was there. Didn't say anything though.

    So...Vowrawn is on Korriban when the Inquisitor defeats Thanaton and takes his place on the Dark Council...but *Thanaton* is present when the Emperor's Wrath slays Darth Baras, having previously freed Vowrawn from the trap Baras set for him on Corellia.

    Which I guess means...the Wrath's plot happens first, and then the Inquisitor's? The Wrath frees Vowrawn on Corellia, they go to Korriban together, Thanaton is there and watches the shit go down, and then *Thanaton* goes to Corellia, fights and loses his own Kaggath, flees back to Korriban, and Vowrawn sits back and watches as he's slain? Am I missing anything?

    Meanwhile at some point in there the Agent goes to the WORST PARTY EVER and gets tortured for 27 hours straight.

    It's ironic just how *satisfying* I find light-sider Inquisitors, considering how ridiculous I thought the idea of a Light Sided Sith was the first time I heard about this game and its morality system. But it's true! There's just something great about going directly from purging the negative emotions from a bunch of angry, millennia-dead Sith ghosts that had been keeping them bound to the mortal plane, to declaring before your assembled followers that the Empire and Sith are yours, all yours! And you will remake them in your image. >:3

    Ambition, self-interest, and the intelligence to see when being nice to people will work out in your favor. Now THAT'S a Sith to be feared!

    AWESOOOME. I like the matching robes and hair.

    Sounds about right on timeline. Who knows when the Agent gets their shit wrecked, though I will note one minor detail that made the party hilarious to me: When they were gassed, Vector noted "We can taste a foreign substance", then plowed face-first into the floor in the weirdest lock-kneed position. It was beautifully silly.

    We've found it, folks. The Best Picture of Issun EVER. It just doesn't get any better than that. XD

    Our poor bugboy. I hope he didn't break his beautiful face. XD Tservani had Lokin along for that mission, I think. He approved of her mouthing off at her tortures, but *not* of her kicking her way free after Hunter left to act on the false info she'd fed him? I guess he wanted us to wait until the torturers dumped us somewhere? But come ON, Lokin! Tservani's a busy women! She can't just lie around whimpering after getting electrocuted AGAIN, she's got places to go! Sith to insult! People to kill!!!

    It is not impossible after that so many electric shocks, my character may have some form of mind-altering traumatic brain injury somewhere inside that twi'lek skull.

    I mean, there's the one shot from the first chapter of KoTFE where the game reassured me "Yes he's still alive, look! You recognize this ass, don't you?" https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bx5s65r-fg47ZDh0LUt0b01fcG8

    But, if we're going in terms of Everything Has Just Gone Wrong Oh God category in best pictures, it's hard to top these two:

    These are the candid moments Issun would rather no one know about.

    Tservani nooo. You can't build up an immunity to electric shocks like that.

    Issun makes the BEST faces, especially when he's shocked and horrified and unaware that there's a camera in the immediate vicinity.

    And Tservani does what she wants, even when it's medically inadvisable. ESPECIALLY when it's medically inadvisable. >:3

    Tservani has always been a frontrunner in the field of "hold muh beer while I try [poking today's overlord with a stick]".
