City of Heroes is a mmorpg with a superhero/ supervillain theme. Done.

 

For folks who are completely ignorant of MMORPGs, I usually say: "It's like World of Warcraft, except with super-heroes."  Everybody has a general idea of what WoW is, so that's usually enough to get the conversation started.

 

For folks who are familiar with MMORPGs, I usually say: "It's like WoW, except with super-heroes and you don't have to grind for gear."  That's usually enough to kill the conversation. 😒

It's a very old MMO who's character creator still outshines most modern day MMO's. 

 

Classy, classic, nigh immortal...but not "very old", please.  Those are immediate turn-off words, and someone might tune out the rest of your accurate message.  At least use "gracefully aged" or "aged like fine wine".  😁

 

 

It's like Death By Chocolate, soaked in the finest espresso liquor...and wrapped in the highest-quality bacon.  Well, actually...it's better.

Been a VERY long time since I've seen anyone say "Ready!" while playing.  

I've used a couple times in the past two weeks or so!  I've also seen it from other players - when we didn't just start steamrolling the second two plus players had entered the instanced map anyway.

Tim "Black Scorpion" Sweeney: Matt (Posi) used to say that players would find the shortest path to the rewards even if it was a completely terrible play experience that would push them away from the game...
