Jade Empire decided to piss me off.

[issaferret]

I'm coming up on the end of Jade Empire here - played through in waaay too little time, mostly because I expected to play again, but they've decided to pull the remarkably irritating 'play with all your weak-ass sidekicks while your main character is busy doing nothing' ploy. It makes some sense, but if I've spent the last 15 hours learning how to work one character, do _not_ _EVER_ take her away from me and drop me with a bunch of people I couldn't even _try_ to play before and am not familiar with at all, and expect me to deal with combats of the difficulty level I'd been facing with the main character. You'll get the finger, and I'll take my ball and go home.

Grr. The game has such good game design up to this point, but some hoops just get my dander up.

... might not be entirely Jade Empire's fault... Becky's not getting in till 11ish.
