Well as
Well as just a black guy, I would like a some representation as a black person.Well as a mixed Irish/Jamaican (with a bit of Indian). I say leave it as is. I come here to get away from all the race nonsense in the real world. I genuinely don’t think about colour or race, until someone brings it up..
My tritium officer is blue, but I think he’s snorting the stuff.
2020 and we are still talking about race
Utopia is not about religion. But more of a dogmatic way of living..similar to Buddhism but having nothing to do with the afterlife. It has nothing to do with god(s) or living a certain way to be rewarded post-death.
which is why this thread is pointless you want "representation" just for the sake of "repersentation" you don't care about actual lore unless you can use it to get what you want.
there is no need to change the current powerplay leaders and the devs times would better be spent doing things that would actually fix the game. like fixing the servers or working on vr for odyssey etc etc etc.
Aren't you kind of peeing on your own high ground, with the way you describe the characters in your second paragraph?
Not fighting you, just pointing out a glaring pseudo-hypocrisy.
So should all of the other 'groups' have representation too?
The rapper I posted resembles one of our PP leaders, bar the spider tattoo and long hair... would that not suffice as symbolic representation?
I dont disagree that representation without lore is shallow. I also dont agree with any representation of earth races in a game that's post-race mixing a thousand years from now.
But the idea that there is no need to change the current power play leaders is patently wrong. Powerplay collapse is a feature of powerplay that has never been completed but was promised and is required as a core functionality of powerplay to make the entire mechanic make any kind of sense. If powerplay collapse and thus powerplay itself was implemented, then we would have a periodic rotation of new powers over time. Implementing that functionality falls firmly in the getting rid of place-holders and completing features part of the game that should have been done in 2015.
I just saw him that and upon My shallow research one of typical follown traits of will result from Albinoism is Ocular Albinoism.... But they still mutually inclusive
Typical Ablinoism of the skin will have greater impact on eyes VS ocular albinoism affect to skin
Yeah but I want to be open and honest on discussion even on the points that are not productive toward mine cuz it does have merit but she is still pretty ambiguous lol

Indeed I do since the introduction would said character will need to flushed out and designed
So it is important. As if I didn't care I wouldnt ask
no you don't care about the lore because your first post was kill torval because she is weak and old. but she is not weak. she is last in PP because fdev gave her the mining lance as her reward is the single most useless item in elite dangerous it's a joke of a hardpoint.
but in lore torval is insanely powerful she has a personal fleet of majestic class interdictor. she even has her own personally majestic called the xanadu which she uses as a luxury yacht. furthermore she has publicly gone after aisling duval. which is something that if you don't have the political power to pull it off would gets you sentenced to death in a monarchy.
you cant just public attack people of royal blood yet torval does it on a regular basis with aisling.
powerplay is not played for the items. people pledge for the items - sure, but they dont actually participate in powerplay for them. So the items themselves are irrelevant when considering ranking in powerplay.
Weakness in powerplay over time should result in collapse and removal and potentially replacement ....regardless of the lore.

As I say, I'm not fighting you, I just wanted to point out some hypocrisy regarding equality, which seemed to be the angle you wanted to take in the thread.
In better explanation, your alluded points about age, secks, gender bias and so on seem to be quite ignorant really. That's all I was pointing out, and it seems to me that it totally degraded your arguments for equality.
Anyway, I was actually trying to help I think really! It just might come across as confrontational.
let me edit what you posted be accurate.
" I do not play powerplay for the items. people pledge for the items - sure, but I don't. to me the items themself are irrelevant."
while you dont play power play for the item a lot of players get their faction purely on the item that is being offered because unless you actualy go and look for it the game does not tell you what each power is really about or any of the background lore that all takes place outside of powerplay.
the item offer does matter when it comes to where a power ranks. if the item is too good or to weak they it has a negative effect on powerplay strength.

No, let me fix it for you. You dont need to do anything in powerplay to acquire the items except sit pledged and be rank 3 at some point after 4 weeks. Then buy all the modules you want and never participate again. The modules have no effect on powerplay power popularity.
There are other things other than items that players may participate in a given power for, but they're not modules and most powers require rank 5 to take full advantage of them. And rank 5 is not something you can just sustain without effort for very long unless you really like powerplay ...nor would you want to. These other attributes of powers do have an impact on popularity.
Actual role playing has a larger impact on powers since the efforts of players who are after just the rewards (which aren't modules but instead the passive or active rewards that impact trade/combat/purchase prices/income) are random and without direction and thus mostly cancel themselves out. The role playing portion of a power can be much smaller but still an overwhelming driving factor for whether a power succeeds weekly or fails. Far beyond the efforts of aimless masses.
Lore is what this group of players makes it. What has been written previously doesn't matter. That's the point of powerplay. The players decide ...not fdev.

Im fairly certain only fdev can dictate what the official lore is
I didn't say popularity i said strength and the module absolutely has a effect on that at one time for aisling it got so bad because the people were just joining for the shields that they started attacking their own faction in and attempt to stop these players from priming bad systems. if you were in the aisling power and flew into certain system in a cargo ship you would literally become KOS with other players of your faction.
You're describing the actions of role players against module oriented players. Look, the evidence points to the contrary that modules have anything to do with weekly movements of a power in ranking. They are irrelevant. People stick with a power and actually do things in it for the ongoing rewards they offer and role playing.
The role players can shift the players who only really care about the ongoing rewards if they care to pay attention to reddit but if not, then the weekly movements of powers is almost entirely dictated by the actions of the role playing minority. Powerplay rankings are entirely dependent on the coordinated efforts of powers to benefit a goal or oppose others ... all of the random aimless play by those who couldn't care less about the power they're playing for or against cancel out or become irrelevant since they almost all focus on whatever the single easiest thing is, which isn't enough to help or hurt a power.
Powerplay doesn't care about the official lore. It's purpose is that players decide what happens. Also, if you're waiting on "official lore" to create the story of what's going on while you play then i'm not sure what you've been doing for the past what.. year and a half now? Did it all just pause for you? If you dont create your own lore based on what's going on in the game then you aren't left with anything. Fdev has abandoned you in that area.
