  1. Meet The OC: Heartquake

    “Eat your veggies, kids, it’s how we hit back against the Hamidon,”

    The Praetorian Empire was a place with one of the most well-developed media landscapes you could imagine. So many channels, so many ideas, even if they weren’t all given the money and time to do everything. There were so many good ways to keep a population contained. Like, for example, the promotional hero shows that lived in the space of Reality TV, DocuDrama, and Sentai Program like Silver Hearts. Silver Hearts was a show for the compliance-inclined inquisitive power-fantasy driven tween to teen demographic, and one of the cast was the hero group’s Nonthreatening Edgy Hunk, Heartquake.

    When his ratings took a sharp dip due to ‘demographic shifting,’ he got to find out just how abruptly the benefits of Praetoria could be withdrawn. Really, it’s a good thing that Praetoria blew up or his story might have become a real bummer.

  2. Meet The OC: Mu’Lti

    Someone has to be the best.

    Lti (pronounced a bit like ‘Ilty’) has a burden few of the Mu in the Etoile struggle with. Most Mu have to work hard and concentrate and focus and struggle with the attenuation to reach into the ancient texts to tap even the mildest bursts of Mu power. There are stories of some ancient, body-hopping experts, some soul-extorting freaks and some genetic misplacements that break these rules, but almost always, Mu mages are scraping the filaments of a god from the sky and the power they have to countenance heroes is that – a faintest reserve of an immeasurably powerful deity.

    For Lti, it’s just there.

    What do you do when you’re the most powerful mage in your discipline in a generation?

    Whatever you want.

  4. If anyone in the Fediverse plays City of Heroes, I just finished publishing my last AE arc (now I gotta ask the GMs for more!)

    I'd love someone to play my most recent two and give feedback on them. They are Best Left Buried (Arc ID 71145), and Operation: Rift Requisition (Arc ID 71438). BLB is a Praetorian Arc and O:RR is a Villain Arc!

    I worked really hard on them and it would mean a lot to me if folks gave them a shot.

  5. It looks kinda like this.
    #CityofHeroes was ahead of its time in terms of things like the macro system, popmenus, and many other quality of life systems.
    This is an entirely customizable popup menu system that lets you use hotkeys to fire off events.

  6. Playing #CityofHeroes tonight for my #gaming weekend, and I've been pushing forth on this new (old) character of mine, a Robotics/Time Manipulation mastermind which is actually a rework of a character I had way back on the original live servers when the game was still living. I mean it's living now. Although it already died once. Does that make it undead?

  7. #Gaming done for the night, after some harrowing trials and tribulations on a Mastermind character I haven't played since 2019 in #CityofHeroes I now am gonna load up episode 12 of campaign 4 of #CriticalRole

  8. "so what's it like being a villain?"
    "you spend a lot of time fighting snakes"

  14. re: Homecoming poll about revamping PvP which basically NOBODY on CoH wants

    #CityofHeroes #videogames

  15. @2legged "When they came for the immigrants / I got in their face!"

    Catchy chorus, but I'm not saying this is the anthem you're looking for. All the same, it's nice to see it's not just Springsteen releasing songs about what's going on.

  16. Mindless #gaming tonight in #CityofHeroes as I take one of my old characters, a Beam Rifle/Super Reflexes Sentinel around and get all the required badges and whatnot for endgame accolades. He's been sitting on the shelf collecting dust long enough.

  17. Meet the OC: Longbow Amplifier

    Probationary Work ProgramClassification ‘Longbow Amplifier’

    Operative Name: KIP ======

    History:- Recruited from civilian population in Cap Au Diable- Trained in Agincourt- Earned early graduation and transferred to Paragon after vetting- Initial probationary in Atlas patrol- Some coworking incidents, poss. due to Etoile origin- Assigned to Recurve- Note #8107 re:assignment, ‘Let the screwballs have him.’

    Notes:- Assigned to Amplifier rather than Nullifier Corps- That Amp rig seems to work only for him- Tied to the PTS somehow, currently under observation- Operative is misgendered occasionally. He’s a guy, just girly looking.- Operative is perhaps a bit too helpful and gullible

  18. Achieved all the #AnimalCrossingNewHorizons Halloween items!

    I'm still down one Arfus and a few transmogs in #WorldofWarcraft, (we don't mention the mount) but I'm working through those as I level toons with the anniversary event. Got to grab my #Diablo4 freebies over the weekend.

    #Palia has some adorable seasonal stuff but all real money which, well, I don't have right now. #CityofHeroes, #GuildWars2, #TravellersRest... I'm coming for you next year!

    How was your #gaming #Halloween?

  19. @massivelyop ooh an interesting question!

    I *hope* I'm still playing #WorldofWarcraft, #GuildWars2, #Palia, the occasional #CityofHeroes and #StarTrekOnline - basically my current #MMO roster. And #DiabloIV which is absolutely an MMO.

    I hope I'm also playing #StarsReach and whatever #Ghostcrawler cooks up, because I'm excited for elements of both.

    Mostly I hope I'm playing stuff I enjoy, and finally #blogging, #streaming, + generally being creative and enjoying the community around it! 💜

  20. Anybody have this one❓

    It was released in 2005 as part of the City of Villains Collector's DVD Edition bundle. 📀

    First half = City of Heroes; and by flipping it around, the other half is based on City of Villains! ↩️
