Anyone else a MMORPG junkie? I am hooked on city of heroes, anyone else play?

Hi... My name is Moose... and I'm a junkie...

Played Everquest for 5 years, then tried Shadowbane and City of Heroes, with a brief stint in Star Wars Galaxies. Got hooked on WoW at its release a couple years ago and haven't looked back since.

You know, I want to be a gamer,but I just can't do it. I buy games and never play them. I finally gave up and got rid of all of my game systems.

Still, I have been wanting to try City of Heroes. Is it worth getting?

I would get into Star Wars Galaxies, but I know that it would end in a divorce.
There is a martial arts MMORPG out there, let me find it... It's called Martial Heros. Looks good, haven't tried it.

WoW
Mal'ganis, Undead Rogue - JohnDOA
Stormrage, Human Warlock - Anago

They ruined SWG with the NGE...

Just as well. I haven't had time for PC gaming lately. I still miss the good ol' versions of SWG, though. *sniff* :(

It's not as cool as it was; the designers keep making the heroes weaker, I believe so it takes you longer to get to the top levels. But if you ever dig superheroes (for some reason, I think most folks here might :D) It is still a wonderful waste of time!!
Plus at the end of the month they are combining heroes and villians in one set.

I played EQ when it first came out for a couple of years, but eventually got bored with it.

I've played quite a few of them, usually not for very long. I just recently cancelled my subscription to Eve. Right now, I'm still on EQ2, which I've been subscribed to since release.

Other MMOGs I've played:
Dark Age of Camelot, Anarchy Online, Earth & Beyond (til its demise), and I tried out Auto Assault, Ryzom, and even WOW, which really really underwhelmed and irritated me.

If you're an EQ2 player, look for one of the following on Kithicor:

Merethdan - 33 Conj
Fauy - 29 Berserker
Merathdeen - 10 Wiz
Voceo - 13 Monk

And a few others whose names I can't remember. I suffer a bit from Alt-itis, so every available character slot is filled. I don't get much playtime either, so I'm certainly not going anywhere fast.

Just a quick thread hijacking. If you're reminicent for the pre-NGE SWG, I'd encourage you to check out SWGEmu (http://www.swgemu.com/modules.php?name=FAQ&myfaq=yes&id_cat=1&categories=SWGEmu+F.A.Q.+READ+BEFORE+DOING+ANYTHIN G). Enough people got fed up with SOE that they built another SWG from the ground up that is basically the game pre-NGE. They had to build it themselves so SOE couldn't claim reverse-engineering. Interesting stuff for a grassroots effort. :)

The kiwibirds now return you to your regularly scheduled forum. :D
