With the next wave of several superhero MMORPGs on the way (Valiance Online, City of Titans, SEGS, and Ship of Heroes), two games currently running (Champions Online, DCUO), and one chat shell running (Paragon Chat), there has never been a better time to plan that perfect caped — or spandexed! — crusader.
So looking to whichever MMO you prefer, what will your next superhero be? Today let’s pretend we have the best character creator at our disposal and fashion up our next, best heroes. What will he, she, or it look like? What powersets will you pick? What will the hero’s origin story and background be? And most importantly, what pun-laden name are you going to inflict upon the world?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
