I think he does alright. Trent seems to be somewhat of an a$$hole but it fits the scenery. I focus more on the flying and trading that the Trent character anyway.

I came. I saw. I conquered. And sometimes get conquered.

Trent's kind of a loser, he makes stupid comments that make you sick of him.
if you could mod your skin for your guy, do you think you could do the same for the voice? (the voice is the worst)

i think its kinda ironic he looks like a preppy but hes an asshole when u get down to it its great.

At least, they could have proposed a male and female character.


and then you'd double all of the voice work, double the cost of implementation, double the work on the main charector animations and then add another 3-6 months onto the release date. I'm pretty sure you would have been shouted down at the pre-production meeting for mentioning that.

Yeah, no need for a female character IMO (please....stop throwing rotten apples and tomatoes at me !).

I kinda like Trent, he's no loser and he's not an incredible hotshot either. Actually he's kinda balanced, which is good IMO.

About the drinking: I think it's cool that he doesn't drink, because he has to fly a spaceship after his bar visits. Some of you guys are saying he isn't cool because he doesn't drink, but are you guys saying that also about guys who don't drink and then drive their car !?! I think they (the developers) wanted to set some sort of example for people that it ain't cool to drink (alcohol that is) and then speed off in a vehicle....sloshed !

He's SUPPOSED to be an asshole! He's a disgruntled pilot who wants his paycheck!

He's supposed to be an asshole !?! Hell, I have a totally other perception about an asshole than DA has then

I thought of him as a model citizen Come on EB, does Trent really give you the impression he's a tough bastard ?

Well I think the designers wanted to create a character that has a somewhat of a personality but at the same time can be "changable".

He reminds me a little of Ryo Hazuki from Shenmue. Not much humor, cool, sometimes calm, with a little sarcasm... But I dont like his haircut

Post Mon Mar 03, 2003 10:56 am

You don't like his haircut ? Well, you should be glad he doesn't have the haircut they initially gave him

Post Mon Mar 03, 2003 11:53 am

Huh? Do you have a pic?

Post Mon Mar 03, 2003 12:11 pm

I can't find a pic at the moment, but his hair used to be longer

Post Mon Mar 03, 2003 12:47 pm

And he used to have a mullet

Post Mon Mar 03, 2003 12:49 pm

Really !?! I never noticed that. Aren't you confusing Trent with Solid Snake ?

Post Mon Mar 03, 2003 12:56 pm

Nah, I'm just screwing with the newbie's head
