Games and Gadgets for the Geeky Pinoy

Welcome back, last week I featured about what if GE has a brand new gameplay feature.
Now for the 2nd part of the GE Special, It’s all about RNPCs, yes folks we’re going to ask ourselves, what if GE has this brand new RNPC that’s gonna give us another twist to our game.

I also remeber that Miss Hrin once started a thread a year ago about our GE will have its very own RNPC and players will their suggestion on what would the RNPC’s appearance and skills.
Also, Sigrid posted her own RNPC which can be found here.

I’m give you not one, not two, but four; three RNPCs that are created by yours truly and one surprise RNPC, which is very famous from a popular game franchise.

and before we move on, kindly read the warning below

Note* you can notice that the 3 are almost similar to the stances of the fighter and scout, but only with a few twist to give the RNPCs some uniqueness. for Xian, he the ability to create a mirrored version of himself but with low stats, I also added some skills that matches that of a real ninja. As for Maria, I created some stances that can be similar to the famous whip-lashing Belmonts of the Castlevania series as a tribute to the popular game franchise (since there’s no Vampire race in GE, I decided to use Undead instead.) and finally we have a Assassin RNPC, but instead of just daggers, we’ll use katars and a hooded figure really matches the profile of the Assassin (looks familiar mmm?) and the fun part is that when you use the Shadow Blend skill, you can stalk to your enemies and then use the Shadow Wound skill unnoticed.

And now *drum roll* the bonus RNPC….

Note* In honor for the release of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, I decided to create Snake himself as an RNPC in GE, and if he does appear ingame, well that would be very cool.
All of his famous trademark skills are present as well as some new tricks that’s going to appear on his latest and final chapter on the Playstation3.
