I know that we get into some pretty esoteric topics here in The Daily Grind, but this may take the cake. Wings. Wings on people. Non-functional, purely aesthetic wings, mind you. How do we feel about them?
I’ve noticed over the past few years that these have really been cropping up in a lot of fantasy titles. Guild Wars 2 is a huge proponent of “wings for all!” but even my Lord of the Rings Online Hobbit recently got a pair of the saddest-looking raven wings for a back slot that makes me embarrassed to equip it.
Personally, I think wings are a mite bit too flashy and distracting, but I’m also in the live-and-let-live category if it makes someone really happy to wear them. What’s your take on wings?
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!
