yep for #2. but make sure to enter a game and session name because i got stuck and very confused with that for a few days lol

OOO thats what number two meant!! Well custom characters are good in ways because they can be full in things most important to them while some npcs really arent as best as the could be stats wise. BUt there cantb any romances or character talk like there can be with NPCs, i do belive custom is better though.

Eh, i dissagree. Custom can be fun, but on a role playing sense its not cool.

How many people have perfect stats? not many. NPCs show that you arent perfect, so even though they might be a cleric they might not have 18 in wisdom. 18 is perfect for mortals (few exceptions). 25 is god hood. just because your a good cleric doesnt mean your going to have 18 wisdom, or a good mage 18 intelligence.

i like NPCs beter because you get good interactions and it shows that we are all flawed.

You have the point, Xero, but custom characters can also be flawed. Make a blind ranger, for example (Blindness all the time :D ).

this is off topic but its a funny message:

If you are playing SoA and you press ctrl+alt+esc it minimizes then you right click on the tab and close and it says are you sure you want to quit? Boo will miss you. LOL
