Got my wife to play LH...

So I've got my wife to play [.90] and shes enjoying the game thus far. When she finally got enough fame to receive her first hero choice, "I told her that she gets to pick one of the two heroes..." she replied, "Why would I want to choose a guy named In Slow..." Just thought I would share the laughter I had from that comment with everyone here.

Maybe now after seeing some of the fruits of your labor, she will be on board with you moving to Michigan and working at SD. She could be in charge of naming the heroes :).

Women always pay attention to those little things :)

PS: We need more female LEADERS.

Word. And, of course, there is the whole can't change the sex of henchmen thing as well, just saying. :grin:

 

Seriously, that's pretty cool Parrottmath, my wife has been playing D&D since the late 70s, but I have never even come close to getting her interested in a game like LH.

Did she play Baldur's Gate series at least? That's one of the classic EPIC games :)

Unless my memory is failing me, I think there were some female champions in FE that I have not seen in LH.

Congratulations Parrottmath! It's a pitty that game does not have MP ;)

Am sure we will get MP at release (or shortly TM) it would be a pity to not be able to play co-op vs AI, or team vs team games. Would help the community tie bonds even further and create clans or faction stuff - shortly put will really add a lot to the game :)

Really? ...really? Inequality in Elemental? The chicks we have include the Fallen Enchantress herself and the preeminent channeler alive on Elemental.

The only game she's ever played that wasn't tabletop was Ultima, way back when. She tends to like kibbitzing while I play some RPGs, but 4X stuff just isn't her bag.

I wouldn't get your hopes up, SD has made it pretty clear MP isn't even on the table.

That is not true. SD has made it pretty clear that they need to hire somebody that can do MP programming before that can be on the table, which is the problem.
