The End of an Era · 6:59am Dec 4th, 2012
I don't know how many of you actually know about it, but City of Heroes, the greatest Superhero based MMO ever created was shut down three days ago. One of the few surviving pre-World of Warcraft MMO's of actual quality, it had one of the greatest in-game communities I've ever seen, with everyone completely willing to lend somebody a hand. You could send out seven blind group invites and you could count on getting seven heroes all eager to fight crime by your side in a matter of minutes. It was a truly amazing game populated by truly amazing people. I have nothing but good words to say about it after having played it for nearly half my life. So it is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to this amazing game, and with cautious optimism that I hope NC Soft will realize what they had with it and make a sequel with a modern day engine. Goodbye, Paragon Studios, and thanks for making me feel like a hero.
For you readers, I actually have a pony story about it, City of Ponies, which I recommend checking out. I'll be working on it alongside Morgoth in Equestria.
An ode to fallen comrades, this is. . .
Tried it, briefly. I'm not much for any kind of mmo, or regular multiplayer for that matter, but this was pretty fun anyway. Shame that it went down.

It got announced ages ago. It just actually happened at the end of last month.

I still dont like NC soft for canning Tabula Rasa. i loved that game.
At least richard garriott won his law suit against NC soft anyway.
Did you hear that there's been a resurrection?
