MetaMortred Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) I strongly recommend changing the color from green to Purple. Here are my 5 reasons: 1. Nyx means night in Latin Greek, dark Purple gives out the darkness vibe more than green. Purple will actually fit the name. 2. Green is usually the color of life - and toxicity. Never seen it used on Psychic Sources before. I suggest saving Green for Ivy: https://forums.warfr...based-warframe/ 3. Purple has always been the color of Mystic and psychic powers. 4. Mind Control is the power that involve manipulation of emotion. Emotion as we know is Purple. In any arcane lore, the color of mind manipulation and love potions is Purple. Fitting the power character entirely. 5. In Psychology Purple is associated with mental disorders. Need I say more? oh . . . ok! Chaos? disorder? does it make sense now? Also Nyx is female, the color purple looks gorgeous on her. and who doesnt want to see the color purple on the battlefield? it will liven things up a lot Edited February 11, 2013 by TheNexusCloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zejjie Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I actually 100% agree with this... The mint green is a pretty weird colour choice for her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cawkslapjones Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 The colors don't bother me at all. I just want the powers to be more worth using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetaMortred Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 You know a lot of stuff about the color purple. Well . . . I have been known for my rather mild level of insanity. Used to play a lot as a Malkavian* back in my Pen and Paper days :D * Malkavian - a vampire clan from Vampire the Masquerade series. That are known for their very high degree of insanity. and actually their powers in a game called VtM: bloodlines is Purple :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telzen Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I don't care what color it is, they just need to tone down how bright it is. Everytime my friend uses his the light blinds my whole screen and starts giving me a headache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronyn Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I agree that Nyx powers should be purple. Obviously just an asthetic thing but clearly art is important to video games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealgaire Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I would be down with this. There a few times when playing where I wasn't sure if an enemy was mind controlled or had well of life cast on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G3rman Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Plugging your warframe and then using it as a reason for them to not use the color green just for the fact it would fit better for yours. It's not like they are going to add your warframe, making that point invalid. Purple can mean a lot of things, so can green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like they are going to add your warframe, making that point invalid. Purple can mean a lot of things, so can green. Trinity is already in the game and also uses green for her first and fourth abilities. The first abilities effect is literally identical to mind control visually.

Katakuna Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Well . . . I have been known for my rather mild level of insanity.

That are known for their very high degree of insanity. and actually their powers in a game called VtM: bloodlines is Purple :D You've played VtM? Instant respect. OT: Having a different color theme would be nice for Nyx, since we've already got Trinity with the green effects that has, at least in my experience, caused some confusion.

Ragewolf Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Nyx is also the greek goddess of night, purple would definately be fitting. agreed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyx is also the greek goddess of night, purple would definately be fitting. agreed Yeah, that was what I had in mind at first - wikipedia is my best friend :D You've played VtM? Instant respect. OT: Having a different color theme would be nice for Nyx, since we've already got Trinity with the green effects that has, at least in my experience, caused some confusion. Thanks. I think it was and still is an awesome RPG - complex with twisted politics. Loved it all the way.

I get other tennos try to attack it because they think it will give them hp...lol.. yes it needs to be changed into a different color. Trin has green already.

Foxbyte Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I was going to make this very same thread, only adding that green at the moment clashes horribly with Trinity's abilities. Makes it difficult to tell what is under the effects of Mind Control or Life Well, especially since MC'd things take no damage from your group [which makes it a near-useless group ability save for rezzing people at boss fights]. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreyGuardian Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 You know that little option at the bottom of the color customization screen? The one that says "Energy"? The one that does pretty much nothing but change some little specks of color here and there on most frames? How about we extend that color out to our power effects as well?

Changable color can make the powers a bit silly and out of place - powers perhaps should have their unique colors and particles that fit the frame it self, or else we will have a circus on the battlefield. Red or Orance ICE? Pink flames? see? it doest look cool on the battle field. It would look more childish and it would reduce the badass factor - also it will confuse the players. Just last night I was wearing all red, and cast my Nyx powers, the poor guy thought i was Trinity all along and expected me to heal him. I was like dude . . . no :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nia.Tahl Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I can't say I dislike the green, but I'd like purple more aswell. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11.11.11 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 (edited) The green is wrong, but while purple has a lot of logical reasoning behind it, I'm just not a purple kind of girl :\ Perhaps rainbows instead. xD Edited February 12, 2013 by 11.11.11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinaV Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Yes, and not to ignore that it is bit too much of green going on so all the green can be bit confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if nothing this change can at least make using NYX powers more tolerable or even possibly enjoyable or pleading to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
