Is it too late to join?
I have been in game for a few weeks (a few years before shutdown), and find most any build easy to solo with, but I soon loose interest and make a new character (because that one died). I know its an MMO where you can respawn endlessly, but I feel when a character dies it was not good enough. (for me anyway)
I like to play a little different than most. I challenge myself to live all the way thru to max level. I have done this in most every MMO I play, and now back with COH, I find myself doing the same thing again. I have yet to achieve max in any game (though I do have some characters that have never died). Some classes/ builds bored me, because I depended on others, rather than contributed as an equal hero/villain to the group.
I have made about 50 characters already all diff types, and deleted about 40 of them already.
