Waffler.1257 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 His name is Gary, every group I've run with has always called him that and I've been playing since release in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menadena.7482 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Every run I have been on people refer to him as Steve (rarely by his official name). Usually accompanied by a few other words though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Schneider.7841 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Hu? In my last lab run it was said/discussed the Labyrinthine Horror is a SHE!So Steve or Dave or whatever wouldnt really work..And yes, I asumed its gender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebraKadabra.5278 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Ran into Steve a few times last night - he really loves my friend, who was commanding the run. But I gotta say.. any time someone in squad/map/say would yell out "Hey Steve!" it would bring this to mind.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceridwen.6703 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 His name is Steve. It is known.He's not to be confused with Steve the DSD, mind. He's quite touchy about it. The dragon, that is. Steve the LH is happy to be compared to a dragon and is hoping for a backpack/glider set of appropriate wings to drop off a player this year.

Jinroh.4251 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I didn't hear him called Steve until last year. This year it just sorta happens naturally. "Steve's up, everyone run.""Don't pull Steve into the Viscount!""Don't open door Steve is coming!""Damn it Steve!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xikira.3264 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I noticed he was usually called fred alot in the recent years but a friend of mine has always called him steve no matter what Even when he saw him for the very frist time. He was very excited this year when he noticed others were referring to him as steve. I am not sure who truly started the trend but my friend is happy that steve is popular due to what ever started it so as long as he is happy I am happy lol. I really do miss people referring to him as fred though Q.Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smsarasin.3468 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 He's always been called "Steve" in any groups I've run Laby with for the past two years. So, I naturally thought it has always been this way. He'll always be "Steve" to me... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omar Aschi Popp.7496 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Here is my question. Why are we arbitrarily picking named enemies to nickname?Why not call Tequatl "John"?Why not Call Logan "Abernathy"?Why not call The Viscount "Chimmichanga"?For what non attention-seeking purpose are we naming a skeketon "Steve/Dave/(lol)Fred"?!!!!!Just call him Horror like a normal person.OrbitalButt was spot on.

Malerian.8435 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I heard that for the first time this year and i have been running the lab since it was launched. Kinda funny, I would have a different name for him lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rauderi.8706 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 @particlepinata.9865 said:I did here of Steve Bubbles the first, the mighty Seadragon ;) Missing in action for years.Yeah, I remember some splat on the old forums when the nickname Steve confounded. DSD was definitely first to have it. The rumored etymology I've heard for Labby Steve is it comes from a meme: Scumbag Steve, some red-faced hollow-looking dude with a backwards cap.Scumbag Steve shows up unwanted and c-blocks you from your loot at the worst times, like with Viscount. But I don't know the history as to why Deep Steve Dragon got his Steve. Hm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astralporing.1957 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Seems to be mostly a forum thing. Outside forums i have never heard Horror being called Steve - just as i haven't heard that name used for DSD (i did however heard him being called Bubbles).(well, it can also be some weird American thing as well, everyone knows that Americans are... different).

Ayakaru.6583 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Personally, I hate the horror. Once you're in his aggro zone there's nothing you can do anymore.Just walk to him and let yourself get killed.Even if youre mounted, if youre near him you pile up torment to near instant dismounting.Its not challenging, its not scary, if defeat is guaranteed. Now, if it was possible to do anything at all, he'd be a challenge. But now he's just a cheap annoyance, like walking into a spike trap in SAB.. nothing you can do, you see it coming and just give in so you can respawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie.1698 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I've heard him called Steve since the first halloween took place in GW2. I think its great for personal reasons, my ex was named Steve so I enjoy the fact that the horror is named Steve. LOL...but I do say "Steve spotting...better run" still.

therapite.3645 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Steve is the name of the deep sea dragon. I've been playing since the beginning - actively - and haven't heard of Steve for anything other than the dragon that lives in a pineapple under the sea. At least until this year, anyway. Then I heard both Steve and Larry in reference to the Lab Horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
