So I tried
City of Heroes last night, and it seems like a really fun game. I spent about 4 to 5 hours, creating and playing my hero,
The Mooninite. Using his dark moon-powers, he fought off many of the nastier denizens of Paragon City. I also created
The Bolt, but I didn't play him much. You can read and discuss the game further on
this and
this Business Casual forum thread.
Anyway, I neither own the game nor have my own account because I can't yet justify the $50 price tag for the game with an extra $12-$15 a month fee to play. Those family and living expenses have priorities over these kind of things. If anyone wants to help fund the life of my hero, then I could play to my heart's content.
Of course, if I had the game, the Business Casual comics would get even less of my attention. That's how it goes.
