We're on Elpis and I'm devouring the Emet-Selch backstory

now I know why every Emet-Selch I play against develops an interest in Darin

they are so alarmingly similar

both blessed with insane power and ability and act so goddamn put upon when asked to help, but they both just care so goddamn much that they get suckered into helping anyway

Even before he went evil he was Fucking Done with everything

so it's like, here's Emet seeing this blue-haired dipshit on the cusp of making every bad decision he ever made

time to meddle I guess

Also he is dating Hythlodaeus and nothing will convince me otherwise

I can see the major plot beats being telegraphed miles away but I still love the execution

Zicak oh yeah without question

The dungeon in that area is one of my favorites for the expansion

ZornSable Emet absolutely looked at Darin going "you're the biggest idiot" and there's like a 50/50 shot he was talking about himself as well

I'm still tickled over how the area starts for a lalafell

"it's still pretty short, isn't it?"

points at Hyth
that's his wife

anyway now I feel like I'm doing something wrong with Emet

and god I wanna throw the gnom my character's based on at an emet-selch, this continues to be absolutely her shit in a way that has nothing to do with WoL stuff

ch1ps0h0y how so?

you were describing past Emets reactions to Darin and I feel I've gone a different route to all of them

in my own plurk a little while back I mean

ch1ps0h0y I don't think you've done anything wrong at all. Ultimately, how a character reacts is subject to your interpretation. I have the benefit of playing against different Emets, you've only ever played against one Darin

And a lot of Darin's history and tendencies develop based off of who he interacts with a lot

;;; well if youre enjpying it regardless that's reassring

reassuring*

Absolutely! I'd love to do more where Emet can see the similarities between them

this is indeed a rock solid part of the game, I hope you're enjoying it!
