Smoking my flavor of crack, eh?

Apparently some people I actually know are playing City of Heroes now? I'm curious what they think, but then, I did smoke that crack for three years!

I think it's the best starter game I've played. You get a serious feeling of power just jumping over things at first level, and it scales up pretty strongly through 10th or so. There's not really enough depth to hold my interest for too long, but that's the case for most of the MMO genre at the moment. The player created missions are a great step in that direction though, but I would like more quality control there...

Yeah, they made a Mac version so we got a gang together. There are downsides to the mission generation on the fly, but the dynamic scaling to different party sizes, the ability to have parties of greater than five, and the exemplar/sidekick mechanic are really nice for playing semi regularly with people who have differing availabilities.
