is there anywhere to play city of heroes anymore

(An MP’s direct-damage abilities without a pet are something akin to hitting the baddie with a nerf dart. It also has one of my favorite classes: the Meta-physicist, which was about a support-y as you can get.

Anarchy Online has one of my favorite “magic” systems, a really fun inter-class dependency system of buffs, and a sci-fi setting. So I’ve posed this question to our staff for this week’s Massively Overthinking: What’s the oldest MMORPG you still play, and what does it have that other games don’t that makes you keep going back? (With the caveat that “still play” means “in the last half year with intent to return.”)Īndy McAdams: I cut my MMO teeth on Anarchy Online, and I inevitably end up going back to play a few hours every year. And while some may argue that harms communities, it’s also helped keep alive a ton of older MMOs that might otherwise have died for lack of players. I personally played a sandbox or two on the side of most of the themeparks we traipsed through, but for the most part, my groups spent a decade playing one MMO and then another and then the next as they came out and caught our collective attention.īut in the more recent decade, we’re flush with choices, and people move around much more between MMOs as they get new content on shorter time-scales rather than stay ensconced in a single title for years. When I was still a teenager in my earliest MMOs, the trend in the communities I ran in was to play MMOs sequentially, due in large part to the fact that there weren’t a whole lot of MMOs to begin with.
