Ugh, yesterday I had intended to play Hellgate: London just long enough to finish off the quests for the Fawkes event, but it wound up taking me until 1:30am to finally finish it. The quests turned out to be awfully late-game for something released only a couple of weeks ago… At least now I can finally get rid of all the event-specific recipe components that are clogging up my inventory.

Now that the event is over though, I think I’m going to shelve HG:L for a while until they put out a few more stability patches. It’s fun, but besides the usual crashes and freezes, yesterday alone I ran across all sorts of other bugs, including PRD portals sometimes not working when you want to return through them (which is especially fun when you used them deep into a tunnel branch), falling through the floor in a station, not being able to buy stuff that stacks when your inventory is full even when it would stack with something you already have (annoying when you’re trying to buy more analyzers), being suddenly teleported back to the station’s starting point seemingly at random, my drone sometimes complaining about requirements and not spawning with the right weapon, even when they’re easily met, unique items not having the stat bonuses they’re supposed to…
