This guy's character is named 'Fortunate Puzzle'. It's obvious which lines we're absolutely not supposed to say, the main challenge here is remembering our actual lines. Let's get the show on the road.ДЄh, looks like we've got some of the 'Flower Guardians' in the audience tonight, ready to haul us (or at least Phong) off if we read the wrong lines. We just need to remember that Emperor Tien gets a message from the heavens, and seasons change from place to place. More of that biting satire there in the revised version. Okay then, let's see the second half of the scene. Heavens send a message at dusk, night coming on fast. Not exactly the work of a master satirist, is it? Let's put these scripts on the stand and compare them, then. We've got the edited script, so we can now see how the lines have been changed from Incisive Chorus' original script. I'm still having a hard time believing that Thespian Phong actually thinks Wu is a male actor in costume, but never mind that. Come talk to me when youВ‘ve got it and weВ‘ll get you into final costume and onto the stage. That said, maybe we should make sure what actually constitutes ruining the scene before we get up there. We'll happily pay you the going rate for a lead, especially since this is short notice.ДЄh yes, the guild. I'm sure your actor's guild told you that we have standard rates. Our writer wasn't that happy, but we accepted the revisions and here we are. Well, a southern noble funded the location and travel for us, but wanted to make a few tweaks. The script's recently been revised, so even if you're familiar with the old version, read it again for the changes before you head on stage. I don't think this dialog choice makes any difference whatsoever, but it makes more sense not to show off Incisive Chorus' script unless we have to. I don't think we really want to show the original script to Phong since it's the one we're supposed to read from, so we'll lie instead. Plays in Imperial China generally featured both male and female actors in lead and support roles, but apparently that isn't how theatre works in the Jade Empire.Дid they give you a copy of the script when they sent you over here? You? You're the replacement? By the starry river, that is the best makeup job I've ever seen! We'll barely have to touch you up to play Lady Fourteen Flowers!ДЄs Incisive Chorus mentioned last time, practically all the roles in these plays are performed by male actors and a woman playing a female character (without first dressing up as a man) is unheard of. We can just about see First-Degree Thespian Phong next to the pagoda to our left, so we'll go introduce ourselves. The first thing we're doing today is act in that play Incisive Chorus roped us into, so that should be exciting.

You only see these backgrounds when you quit the game and return to the menu, you just get the default Two Rivers background when you boot up Jade Empire. Oh, and before I forget again, here's the Imperial City version of the main menu screen, complete with stretched logos as per usual. The fortress lies at the far end of the Necropolis, but we're not going there yet because we've got sidequests to complete. Last time, Sagacious Zu seemingly decided he wanted no part of our plan to infiltrate the Lotus Assassins' fortress, so he sneaked off while we were busy chatting up Silk Fox. Planescape:В Torment was done by Black Isle, not Bioware.Part 30: Creative Pursuits Episode 28: Creative Pursuits Morte especially.Д®dited by Valcutio, 02 February 2010 - 06:55 AM.

I wouldn't mind a sequel at all though.ДЇor those who have never played Planescape: Torment. I loved Jade Empire but there really wasn't any stand-out characters IMO.

Honorable Mention:В Mission Vao (She'd have scored much higher before DA:O and ME2) Joker (Seth Green really takes the cake here. A wonderful character I'll never forget.)ДЁ. Bastilla (Set the bar for all RPG characters IMO. she'll always have a tiny piece of mah heart)Д§. Morte (Best part of Planescape: Torment and that's saying a LOT)Д¦. Morrigan (I felt good and dirty romancing her)Д¤. Alistair (Reminded me a lot of myself, I like me)ДЈ. A little comment next to each one because if I started talking about these characters as much as I'd like to I'd need several posts in order to say why they make my list.Дў.
