The only thing I do not like about Freedom Force is that it is so... American

I think that's a deliberate and tongue in cheek choice. It's embracing that silver age comic book, 1950's retro feeling. It's supposed to be ironic, all the men have cleft chins and all the women wear pearls and look like Jackie O. It ends up being very funny.

This was certainly how I read it -- the game's unabashedly Silver Age, and that means Captain America and all the other Americana.

And as for PCat's comment, yeah, I do know I've seen a Canadian skin for the game out there somewhere.
 


So, given that Sagiro is slightly MIA, would anyone be interested in snippet's from Ernie's diary? He kept it while we were in Kivia, as a running letter to his mom. It would be a repeat of plot we've already had, but might be amusing.
 

KidCthulhu -

Speaking as a long time lurker - the more story the better!

I have always enjoyed reading about familiar stories from other perspectives and I'm sure that Ernie's POV will be interesting!


--shameless gush warning--
And I must say that this hearty band of adventurers provide an enormous amount of enjoyment to myself and, I'm sure, all of the other readers here. I have to admit that I've been gaming vicariously through your group since I found these story hours!

Thanks!
 



Kivian recipies......
A story update......
An interesting personal story from the weekend.......

Something!
We are dying out here!
 

You know, this is probably as close as I will ever be to experiencing life as a heroin addict... my dealer is MIA and I'm going into withdrawal.

Worse still, ALL of my favorites are currently on hiatus.
