I'm sure this is a fun game for some. I however find it rather infuriating. It might have to do with that I tried it in the middle of the night because I couldn't sleep, but I'm not sure. I only played to level 3.

What I dislike most are the controls. You can control movement with your mouse entirely, however my mouse is not good for that. You can also move with the keys: a,s,w, and d. But then you still have to move the camera and turn with the mouse. There might be another way, however I think this is unnecessarily complicated.

The customization options where really neat however, you have a lot of options to choose from. But in the game it seems like you won't get any gear, you only get new "powers". I found that a bit sad. The fighting was simple, use bound keys or click on them with your mouse, seems to be standard in most mmorpgs.

It ran smoothly on my computer when using the minimum options for graphics, it also worked on the standard, even though I don't have enough ram for that, or a good enough video card.

I'd recommend this game to superhero geeks, and to those who don't want to customize much in game, however before the game the options are many. For those who are used to fantasy based mmorpgs or rpgs I don't recommend it to. Your characters looks stays the same, no new items to wear. You do however get new abilities and other such things when levelling.

For me it is time to uninstall, 2 hours of this game was enough. If you decide to try it despite of this post I wish you good luck and hope you find it more enjoyable than I did.

I hate, hate, hate gear. - 07/09/2009 06:14:16 AM 627 Views
There's no roleplay in any video game. What don't you like about gear, though? *NM* - 07/09/2009 07:26:33 AM 259 Views
