Totally had a GLEEEE moment when I heard this again, for the first time this season.

Brought back awesome memories of using it to hover in Hollows on my Emp/Rad last year, healing and buffing lowbies, before the Hollows revamp.

I'm also digging the semi-maniacal, yet happy-sounding laughter that echoes through the canyons of the Ski Chalet periodically.

Beyond the seasonal stuff, tho, I think the travel powers, and specifically Super Jump, are probably my most favorite part of the game. Sometimes I just go for Jump-jaunts, parkour-style, seeing how high I can get stringing together bounds off of ever-increasing heights. Steel Canyon is ideal for this.

I also get off on a really synergistic PuG (unlike the gang of misfits I ended up with last night ), where you just wanna roll forever and never stop, and the Mission Accomplished sting makes you feel kinda sad, instead of happy.

I joined during the winter event in (2005? 2006?... 2005), so the jingle jet music always makes me kind of nostalgic for the "WOW HOLY COW WOW WHAT'S THAT OMG I DIED REALLY SPECTACULARLY WHAT'S THAT WOW WHERE ARE YOU GUYS OMG MORE BUTTONS TO PUSH CLICK CLICK WOW WHAT'S THAT YOU DIED REALLY SPECTACULARLY HEHE LOOK HOW THIS DEAD DUDE LANDED HEHE" feeling that I had for the first month or so of playing.

I love this game because:
1. Friends
2. Funny stuff always seems to happen
3. taking my high lvl blasters and AoEing mobs in low lvl zones


I'm a Mac user, no Mid's for me

Well its some big things too. Mainly things that make other MMOs so greatly annoying to me.

- You dont have to spend 80% of your time buying new stuff and selling your old at the auction house, because here its not the equipment that is cool but your character, plus everything has fix stats.

- I dont have to bail out of my game world experience every minute or two because some game mechanic breaks the world, like having to rival other players for a mission glowie in the open, villains that you defeated for good respawning immediately, constantly 'happening' things on the street that never go away because there's always another one who gets the mission after you finish it, or enemies spawning in your face.

- A decent level of influence that your 'class' has, that makes it have an impact but still allows you tons of possibilities to play your 'class', instead of dictating how you have to become.

- Superfast traveling being part of your character and not some epic superexpensive stuff that you have to grind an eternity for or pay real life money for. And there is not one that is 'best'.

I wish they'd stick with more consitency of the world and less quality-of-life stuff that breaks it, like traveling to that time-travel thing in another dimension and back being the fastest way to get to another zone, contacts being of no use anymore, Cellphones working in the ancient past...

But its still a lot better than stuff you have to deal with on some other MMOs.
