And be a villain?
I've been mostly off of CoV for a month-plus now, due to Margie's graphic card going kerflooey (to get all technical with you folks). I logged in briefly to get jingle jets, but that was about it, aside from a couple very short solo dabbles.
And y'know what? Not missing it all that much. I guess I'm just a sappy guy who likes to be a hero, rather than a villain.
Granted, CoV the game has some bits that make it superior to CoH -- incrementally, at least. But I'm really not pining away for the sense oppressive gloom and doom and blood and pain and general nastiness.
I'm sure that, once we get back into it, we'll enjoy it more, esp. if we can do more teaming up with people. But, really, at this point it remains a sideline to me, not the main event.
Call me a sucker for blue skies. I never knew you could get S.A.D. from a computer game ...

I haven't logged in to CoV for a week or so now. Avocet's fun to play again after a couple of months of almost nothing but villains.

By the way, when you titled this post, were you thinking of Nero Wolfe or Hamlet?

Nero Wolfe, which, of course, was borrowed from Hamlet. But I've read the former a lot more than the latter.

That explains a lot. Not that I've had much time to be online, but I've been playing exclusively on the villain side.
For the most part, it's probably because I have the most "even" footing on the villain side, albeit quickly falling behind. My highest level char is a FF Defender on Guardian server, which means nothing for playing with you folks on Champion.
Maybe I should roll up that Broadswoard Scrapper named Warcraft Refugee that I was thinking about.

Heh. That would be funny.
