Oh dear, oh dear.

Creepy - why the hell are you getting all defensive just because people say they don't like the look of the game?

Also, you're being rather hypocritical since every time you're on WoW, you go on about how much you like it.

Seriously, what is that thing stuck up your ass? Stop taking everything so bloody seriously and as if it's a direct attack against you.

City of Heroes is an excellent game. Yea, it may not have the visual flair of something like Half-Life 2, but meh.

Superheroes own elves, trolls and dwarves.

It all comes down to choice really, which associaction would you rather have hanging over you?

Comic nerd or Dungeons & Dragons nerd?

Choices, choices.

At least with Star Wars Galaxies, you have the whole Star Wars nerd stigma. Hold on, that's not a good thing anymore..........

What makes me laugh though is the amount of comments in this thread which basically amount to: "City of Heroes' visuals look crap therefore the game is crap".

Why don't people read up about it or play it before they instantly dismiss the game because it doesn't look stunningly beautiful?

Yeah, I must admit, I've never been blown away by any MMORPGs graphics. WOW's graphics are relatively primative too.

In both cases (WOW, COH) I think both style are perfectly suited to the type of game. I wouldn't expect a fun, campy superhero game to be muted and dull. It should be almost primary colors.

Umm.

I said the GAME is good but we're on about the graphics.

I'm being defensive because everyone else around here never accepts any one else’s opinion so why should I?

Can't vouch for anyone else, but I certainly wasn't talking about graphics...

The only person other than creepy who has said anything about the game in this thread is Emitime with: -

"Creepy... To be honest... it does... Just admit it

It's quite fun though."

All the rest of the posts concern the look of it. ;)

I presonally think it looks quite good, and wouldn't mind a blast, but I'm not paying monthly subs.
