  1. I miss the feeling of discovery, but only because for most zones my duo partner and I have been there. When we first walked into First ward, I can say for myself I got that back. My favorite was walking around the asylum, looking at it with eyes that have heard the stories of Mom during my pretoria ventures, to actually seeing what was the base of all the mystery. I got a chill looking up to those dead windows and thinking about the atrocities that happened there, looking around at the ruined landscape and feeling a sadness.

    It was not untill we started doing the missions there that made me sit up and remember what it felt like to be new the first time I steped into CoH back in 2005 (never started a forum account untill '06 lol so don't jump on that) I was freash I was awed, every new zone brought new thoughts and new story ideas as a writer.

    Currently we are working with the medicin man and his first contact with us made me pause and smile. I am a follower of shaminism and the mythic paths and this was right up my alley. I just hope the stories and the feel that makes me want to help a contact remains as the game progresses. Since we have come back, we have been continually impressed with some of the changes.. others.. well meh, but I am enjoying the newer stories that are developing.

    Its not always about the exploration, but if you take the time to look around you, it may be you are missing something great. We had said we had no need for first ward at first, now it is up there on our list along with Croata as one of our favorite places in the game. Read the stories, as I see it they are improving in leaps and bound on the newer content. (walks off muttering about the new tut zone being her only dissapointment. )
  2. Day 35: The effects of the serum have become more notcible, the growth actually seems to be taking on a life of its own. Just yesterday I could of sworn I heard it attempt to communicate. I think I am losing my mind.

    Day 36: Help..... * the word dangles down the rest of the page ending in a bloodied mark upon its surface that seems to be in the shape of an elongated fingerprint. *

    I hope you both enjoy being back.

    And yeah, at first, I thought it was a cool way to introduce the Giant Monster aspect of this game... an aspect that kind of gets overlooked.
    I hope they do make more of such things from here on, because it is a fun thing within this game and maybe offering a taste of it (albeit, currently a fake taste) will lead to them trying to put a bit more of the spotlight on fighting giant monsters and the like.

    Side tangent, perhaps, but hey!
    Thank you Electric, there is something to say about comming home, its like a warm fuzzy blanket that you never want to let go of.. its a Wubby! But I digress, so far we are finding the rest of the game quite enjoyable again. Something about it feels different, a certian charge to the air, but what ever it is neither of us want to find out because we don't want that feeling to go away
  4. Wow, been a while since I have been here, Sarge and I finally came back to CoH with the release of Freedoma nd quickly decided we did not like loosing everything for the free so we went VIP. Anyhow, we both made new characters last night just to see the new Zone and try out one of the new power sets, when I first loaded in I was almost in awe, this was galaxy, this was the safe haven we went to when we did not want to do Atlas, its.. destroyed!

    That was it for my awe, small, quick, not immersive, though I did like the Shivan fight, it reminded me of the old street brawls with the giants, it all went by so quick that by the time we were done I was left going huh.. well that was dissapointing.

    So many points have been made about this that I will not rehash them, but it could of been so much more epic to draw out that feeling of awe I had when I first logged into a destroyed Galaxy.

    This is my sad face...
  5. Sarge and I had a random tiny tot run with us one night and something was said that made me chuckle because I never thought of it the way it was said. She said " I see what you do here! You take a squishy blaster and make him a near invincible tank!" Talking about my emp def and his fire blaster.

    While he and I have not kept our accounts active as long as everyone else we have been playing off and on since Feb 2005, Feb 2006 respectively. We keep comming back again and again because of our love for the game and the way we can bring all our rp characters to life in it. As for me, its nice to hear that I am doing something right in the game now and again and evertime Valtina gets a complement, it just makes me swell up with pride and remember why I became a super hero!

    The community is great here as well, even though I barely post I have never once been talked to like a "noob" even though I self proclaim myself as the eternal noob every day!
  6. Indeed CoH family, I love when I see it come together. A speedy recovery and well wishes from Sarge and Tina while we don't know her either, we know what its like to be in the hopsital and in bad shape. *hugs*
