    stormfront hates gays right?

    I kind of want to start talking about how disgusting the idea of two young, fit soldiers showering together, their lithe and taut bodies slick with soap, stealing curious glances at each other. It's so gross and unnatural, especially when they start to explore each other's body with unhindered lust until their commanding officer walks in and joins them in their carnal, forbidden, immoral exchange.

    the PVP in this game is hilariously unbalanced

    it's PVP anywhere, all the time (if you play on a PVP server) so if you are a low level hero flying around minding your own a high level villain can swing by, gank you, and fly away

    i think there's some kind of level range limitation on who you are allowed to attack, but if there is it is generous enough that some random hero was able to like, one-shot me and run away

    however, it's possible (depending on your powers) to take powers to disguise yourself as an NPC or another hero or whatever

    i went to a couple queer pride parades in israel (where the tel aviv one was as liberal and decadent as the philly and nyc ones i've seen, and the one in jerusalem had horrible protesters) so i guess i am accustomed to some hardcore homophobia

    but

    i was watching philadelphia a few weeks back and there's a scene where the camera pans over the picketers in front of the courthouse

    there is a sign that says "aids is the cure for homosexuality"

    it was really jarring and i had to pause the movie and recover from it

    alright keep in mind that the game has a bit of backstory to it

    you are a super hero/villain because Lex Luthor came back from the future and set off an energy wave that gave a bunch of people super-powers, and/or you were motivated by this recent increase in the amount of superpowered people to become a super hero/villain

    so you start as a brand new schmuck, who has a lot of "potential".

    the choice of hero/villain makes no mechanical difference in how you create your character, it just changes your quests and faction gear and stuff after you make your dude

    when you create a character, you choose a "mentor" (Superman, Batman, or Wonder Woman for heroes, Lex Luthor, Joker, or Circe for villains) which determines your starting quests and opens up faction gear and shit.

    Then you choose a Power Set. There's not a lot of power sets to choose from right now, but they're pretty standard super-hero standbys (Fire Control, Ice Control, Psionics, Sorcery, Gadgets, etc.)

    Your powers (which are distinct from your Fighting Style, I'll get to that in a second) are the sort of thing you use with your number keys, and use up your "blue bar" of energy to cast, and have cooldowns, etc. If you've ever played Champions or City of Heroes, you're used to these.

    The Power Sets actually have two "trees" that you take points in as you level up. Psionics, for example, has a Telekinesis tree and a Telepathy tree.

    However, your powers are more utility/heal/control/buff type things, not your main attacks.

    Your main attacks are from your Fighting Style, which you pick separate from your power set. The Fighting Styles have quite a bit of variety to them (Staff, Martial Arts, Dual Pistols, Brawling, Energy Blasts, and others) and most of them involve a weapon of some kind

    Your Fighting Style attacks don't cost energy, and you have two buttons for them (Primary and Secondary), which if you are playing with a mouse (like a faggot) is Left Mouse Button and Right Mouse Button. if you're playing with a controller like a cool bro then they are just assigned to two buttons.

    The Fighting Style attacks can unlock extra attack types, which you use by holding, tapping, or combining button presses to activate (for example, Brawling has a Hand Clap attack you activate by tapping and then holding Secondary Attack, martial arts has a juggle combo you turn on by going Primary-Secondary-Primary, etc.)

    as you level up, you unlock new Powers and Fighting attacks on respective trees

    uhhhh

    that's all I can think of to answer your questions right now?

    yeah
