Anyone played or playing this? How is it? Compare it to WoW if you've played that.

Too many MMO's try to be a "WoW killer" instead of just being their own game. I've watched the development of this game and it just makes go "meh."

I don't really have an opinion on it, however. It could be amazing for all I know.

From what I've heard/learned so far it's quite different from WoW, but I just use WoW as a control because I've played it a while back (WotLK era).

Its like a half assed rip off of City of Heroes

In fact DC only made the game because they failed at sueing CoH for copyright infringement

It depends it can be a grind but most of the time its fun and provides alot more back story than WoW does

Its more about PvE though not PvP like WoW it also helps if you have some minor role playing ability

Lol, more backstory than WoW? WoW has thousands of pages of lore behind it dude and it's all really easy to find. Also, does CoH have 10+ full length novels describing that lore in detail?

WoW didn't steal or borrow it from CoH. Achievements in general are just plaguing the gaming population cause some people only care about such. Except in WoW you can get stuff with Achievements, but I don't know about CoH.

Rofl, I'm pretty sure if anything, Blizzard took the achievement idea from the almighty xbox 360.

Yeah but the way badges work on CoH is basically how cheevos work on WoW plus both of them are MMORPGs so

I just had a revelation. What if life has achievements/achievement-titles. Would people work harder in life to get them?

Wait, never mind. I'm talking about human beings... Razz

You're on to something. Make them pop up in facebook updates and the masses would be all over that shit.

or

Do Not Pass Go
