Blame Ragnar.
No, really, I'm sure those troxes in panties with butterfly wings was his idea as well.
The week after launch everyone's gonna pray for those idiots to run naked, just because it's at least better than alternative 'funny' wear.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who is worrying about these things. And I definitely blame Ragnar. I have never trusted his judgment. But I guess I have to try to keep my worries and disappointed feelings under control, and just hope for the best.

Oh well, I guess my character will look like a "cool adult"...
No seriously though. I hope there's gonna be some interesting character customization. I wouldn't want to see my clone everywhere. When you look at a face and you have at least 3 or 4 names that are just stuck with these... You know?
When it's not "You remind me of a friend" but "Oh, you like Z, Y, C, D and a bit like H but with a beard..."
I hope we'll have access to enough customization that I don't feel like we've been breeding an army of clones with too narrow a generic pool

Happy Saint Valentine's Day everyone!
To honor the day I am offering for your listening pleasure a YouTube link to the Gerry Mulligan Quartet's 1953 instrumental jazz rendition of "My Funny Valentine" (with the great Chet Baker playing trumpet). This is a landmark recording which helped to establish the brooding sound of West Coast Jazz, and which was directly responsible for turning "My Funny Valentine" into a universally popular jazz standard. After the Gerry Mulligan Quartet helped to bring back this old show tune, everybody got in on the act and there are now hundreds of versions of this song recorded by countless artists. (As a matter of fact, Chet Baker later became a famous singer when he released his own vocal version of this song.) I absolutely love this recording, and I can honestly say that it has had an awesome effect on my whole life because this was the first jazz song that I learned to appreciate. After hearing this, I was hungry to hear more jazz, and my life has been so much richer as a result.
Please listen and enjoy!
