I don't think its worth to continue fighting. Imagine going to U.S living peaceful life with his family.
Its like watching a gambling addict keep saying "when i win, it will be worth it".
It's a fantastic ride this quest, I'd warn anybody coming in that the anons are fucking vicious to new people from forums, but read the FAQ and don't go asking for powerups that would break the setting completely over our knee and you should be fine.
You were born in the winter of 3009, a year notable for little more than the Wedding of future Lyran Archon Katrina Steiner to her husband, Arthur Luvon, inside the inner sphere.

A Foreword.
The description of this story is the original sales pitch for Mechwarrior: Periphery Lord Quest, and the initial summary of its plot. It has since grown far from that premise, but the same characters at the beginning continue to grow and develop as people and leaders to this day on...
On anime: I haven't watched that many, aside from the mainstream stuff. DBZ was big a thing in the early 2000s in my country. That was a cool romp, ngl - until it absolutely jumped the shark.

I also agree that LoGH is kinda the peak of what battles in the void of space could be, every other medium falls so short in that aspect it's so disappointing.
What I wouldn't give to have Reinhard or Yang expy's in a potential B5 or Battlestar: Galactica crossover.
I was an avid anime fan until I watched LoGH. After that, I just couldn't watch any anime at all, every show suddenly felt so hollow and pointless and just cringeworthy in general. Made me stop watching other anime for years after seeing the show for the first time.

Absolutely. I only wish the novels the OVAs are based on weren't so hard to come by; it's really a shame. LoGH delivers in a way most other space operas don't. Watching Star Wars and some parts of DS9 or B5 are a massive downgrade, after a LoGH binge.
Over the years I've watched the entire original series, movies and gaiden series included, like 3 times already. I think it's pretty much the best anime ever to be made, and it's up there in the 'best thing ever' category.
That's always the trouble, isn't it? Centralize too much, you get tyranny. Decentralize too much, you get chaos. Like the scene at the end of Demolition Man goes...

They should reconsider their stance on that one. I mean, if the big payment processing oligopol decides to cut Valve off, what can they do about it, without any contigencies? Furthermore, if they're so concerned about scams, they should create their own system, including a bank. The biggest...
