  1. I don't remember - there are probably things that I saw in original era (2005+) that I don't even recall seeing now. =P
  2. Maybe there could be an exception for the zones of the Shadow Shard, where a higher flight speed wouldn't make any bit of difference to how good or bad the entire zone appears. 😃
  3. I don't really care about the hype - if the film looks and sounds good after general release, I'll put it on my radar. I haven't seen an MCU movie since Endgame, and I haven't seen a TV show since Wandavision (maybe bits & pieces of Moon Knight and the one show with Werewolf by Night and Man-thing).
  4. I'm happy to donate a small amount to contribute. 😃 Thanks for keeping things running.
  5. Uther: To kill and be King... is that all? Merlin: Perhaps not even that. Uther: You strike me with words hard as steel! Merlin: You betrayed the Duke. You stole his wife. You took his castle. Now no one trusts you. You're not the one.
  6. Kent : "You'll rue the day!" Chris: "Who talks like that?"
  7. I use Discord, but for 95% social / interest group type stuff, or if I want voice comms with locals - it's not my go-to for filesharing, news or information generally, or specifically news or information for games. I remember when Amazon Games shut down their official New World forums and went to a Discord-primary/secondary means of sharing information with their playerbase - I guess they figured between Discord and YouTube, they'd have their bases covered. I hope they at least saved a few bucks, even if it ultimately wasn't enough to save the game.
  8. I think I am there with you - the dividends from its use would be proportional to the the incremental differences it would point out or make obvious. I'd used Mid's years ago, but now, it's more fun for me to build a new character from scratch in-game than to theorycraft one with a third-party tool - I guess that could be my way of contributing to the game's longevity, at least for myself.
  9. For the most part, I enjoy using Radiation Emission, Choking Cloud, Radiation Infection as the go-to powers, with Lingering Radiation, and Radiant Aura for the heal - it lets me casually attack the mobs even though it takes me longer to clear them all if I'm solo, using mostly Neutrino Bolt and X-Ray Beam. For Pool Powers, I have Hasten, Medicine, and Energy Mastery to help with Recharge, Self-heal/heal buff, and another build-up & attack respectively. It's very different from playing a Scrapper, but it is fun-different, especially when NPCs team with you for a mission and you exchange buffs with them.
  10. Looks pretty cool. Currently available solely via Discord, or will it be hosted on a regular webpage or possibly a GitHub repository?
  11. Nice-looking page with lots of info, looks good to me. 😃
  12. Do 'ebil marketeers' self-declare, or are they 'outed' by someone behind the scenes after filtering and sifting thousands of transactions?
  13. It's been a while since this topic regarding tweaks or improvements to my least favorite, lingering original mechanic in the entire game got a reply. Not that I expect anything will happen - but I despise the respec mechanism enough to contribute to the thread. And of course, to not do respecs.
  14. I wouldn't say rich, per se - but I think I'm fairly well-marbled.
  15. Mainly just videogames (and mostly older games at that) - many of my previous hobbies were almost universally more expensive, and I've left them behind and returned to one of the least expensive (I rely on aging hardware).
  16. Sea Power - Martinaise, Terminal B (Disco Elysium OST)
  17. I think my rule would probably be: get coffee, go pee, etc. first, then announce xyz. But I'm not generally the one announcing, I just watch for the announcements.
  18. Back on live, I had at least one of everything except the Villain-types. On HC, I don't have any Kheldians.
  19. Kheldians are the only AT that I haven't played at all, and have little or zero interest in playing.
  20. The problem with CO for me is that I'd already played the tabletop version for over a decade, having created dozens of characters, and the character creation between tabletop and crpg versions was about as different as it could possibly be - almost nothing in CO felt anything like Champions™ to me, and ultimately it didn't feel as satisfying as CoH.
  21. If you right-click the game title in your library list, and then left-click the icon in the resulting flyout window, Steam should give you options for changing the icon. The hero and grid images can be changed from the main library window by right-clicking (and choosing 'Manage' > 'Set custom artwork', and 'Set custom background' respectively).
  22. Right. Except for the one stretch of six or so years post-shutdown where NCSoft wasn't even aware that City of Heroes was still covertly active.
  23. I think that to some degree, the collar has always been there - it's just a question of who is holding the other end of the leash.
  24. My two thoughts: 'You are the hero of your own story, not the sidekick in someone else's.' 'Comparison is the thief of joy.'
  25. How does one silence the god-awful sound associated with this stealthy power? Delete the 'glow3_loop' file from the directory?
