Are those humans you fight in Episode 8?

  I've spent some time on youtube checking out Episode 8 videos, and I noticed those dudes wearing armor... They look really human. So is the Pontiff's court evil as I suspected and are we going to be fighting humans instead of fomors in episode 8?

  It really intrigues my interest. I can't understand Korean, and none of the Koreans I know ever got that far. So I'm wondering if:
  1. The Pontiff's Court is actually a conglomerate of ass wipes.
  2. You kill <evil> humans in Episode 8?
  3. If so, what of the fomors in Episode 8?
  
  I don't think this kind of topic fits into Q & H since it's not about the gameplay, it's about the storyline.

  I haven't like Riordan since I met him...I can totally see this happening.

  @OP I didn't see any fighting.
  
  I saw riordan shoot keaghan, and then nyle flew in and did magic.
  
  Real magic. Evie needs some of that.

  MAN, I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS KEAGHAN. Thanks for ruining it. :<
  Actually, I did guess that it was him...

  It might not be, but you hear riordan yell "Keaghan!" within the first second.
  
  He pronounces it like Cheegan though.
  
  Also, I can't recall, but didn't we already see keaghan once?

  Oh. I think so, now that you mention it.

  I seriously can't recall exactly what, but I would bet dollars that we've already seen him.

  In that video I was referring to the archers who shot Keaghan.

  This one involves fighting guys who look like the archers.

  They look pretty human-like to me, with the exception of dem bosses. o.o
• Kueh wrote on 2011-02-26 07:28
  I suspect a behind the scenes faction similar to the dark brohood, except directly in opposition to them.
  
  It would mean, if those people are from the pontiff's court, they aren't knowingly fighting on the wrong side.
  
  Also, those bosses hardly looked human. I don't think the pontiff's court would be so quick to fight alongside fomors.

  Yeah. I was thinking that you finally beat down the Pontiff's court in Episode 8 and find out of its corruption and its involvement with the fomors. The other guess is that those are actually fomors and that they did evil things to those humans and brain washed them or infected them or something, but that would seem cliche and stupid... I'm excited about <mass slaughtering> evil dudes of our race in cool armor who fully realize the extent <and punishment> of their actions.
  
  Edit: The purple skinned fencing dude is supposedly Clodagh's brother. His name is Cloyan in KR. Either the fomors or the Pontiffs' did something to this guy to make him the way he is.

  I'm thinking they were experimenting on humans and turned them into nasty monster things.

  Probably the trash mobs are humans that are just doing their jobs, and the bosses seem to be like mutants so yeah probably experimentation and also Keaghan went down in two shots? Weak.

  I know! He even had armor on, and he only got shot on the right side, not even near his heart or anything. I was like Srsly? >>

  Not the first time the devs kinda mess up, i mean lore wise Elis for example was a lvl 52 or more NPC, that beat the proof of courage and yet he *cough*die*cough* on one of the most easy Ainle bosses...
