Do you choose characters based on appearance or what they can do?
For that matter, how do you choose your weapons, mags, and other equipment?
I, for one, like to balance it. I look back on my first PSO choices for the answer to that, and it was like this:
Fomar with a Nidra.
I chose Fomar because he's the only respectable looking human. I didn't care that it took a "experienced" player. Ha. And wow was I ever frustrated for a long time.
Even now, I could be hunting a Pan arm's blade for him, but instead I want a Twin Chakram. Why? It looks cooler. What can I say, I'm a chump. If the way my character plays looks cool, I have more fun.
However, the reasonable side of me has also created a RAcast that is catching up with said Fomar quick. I don't care about his appearance. It's like trying to make a cool looking bulldozer. Pointless.
