Will we ever move back out of GrecoRoman myth?

A medieval zone is the most important one to add though, because we need long dresses and wacky pointy hats and curtsey emotes.

At the time I heard about Incarnates, I had only one demi-god on my character roster and one in the formative stages. So I picked up this book by Marvel comics, a one-shot issue: Thor & Hercules: Encyclopaedia Mythologica (2009).

The book details traits and histories of well over a dozen pantheons and hundreds of gods and god-like beings, of both worldly and otherworldly origins. And while it's Marvel's spin on these entities (so you get a mash-up of mythological "facts", and fantastic alternate histories of pantheon team-ups and such), that makes it all the more worth the while, because you're getting that "imagination-overdrive" style of world-building that comics are all about. I've been entertained by mythology since I was a kid, but this was a great way to be introduced to Aboriginal, Chinese, and (especially) Celtic gods for the first time. If you're looking for inspiration for character concepts, I can't recommend it enough (it's just a few bucks).

City of Heroes will probably always emphasize Greco-Roman myth, which is reasonable: the Well of the Furies feeds the Fountain of Zeus. Cole and Richter discovered this relic, and made possible the super-powered world that City of Heroes is based in. This is much the same way Asgard takes center-stage among Marvel's various historical pantheons (Thor and his ilk just seem to be at the center of things more often in that universe).

But it's a big multiverse, and I think it would be great if City of Heroes explored other mythologies, or gave its less-explored mythologies more attention. Croatoa, the Coralax, the Banished Pantheon and Dark Astoria are just a few that come to mind, all brimming with story-telling potential.

At the same time, we have no excuse for waiting idly. From what I've read, Paragon Studios plans its content pipeline months, even years in advance. You may have to wait for a very long time to see your favorite mythology represented in City of Heroes. If you have an idea for how some obscure mythology could be incorporated into the game and its lore, we may all be better off if you bring it to life with the Mission Architect. A well-composed arc that places as much emphasis on story as it does mechanics (and rewards) is always going to be "official enough" in my book.

How about NO myths and maybe something more super/comic book like! We have touched on myths already. Let's see some epic stuff that is kinda like what we read in comics. I am thinking bring out the classic rogues gallery - like in Fantastic Four, Spider-Man and Batman (to name a few). They had some periods of amazing foes and story lines. This game is lacking a cool rogues gallery.

Enough of the Nazis and the related factions. Add some more actual super hero genre stuff and not military types etc.

Given how I shudder each time I zone into Croatoa to see Gaelic butchered before my eyes, I'm not sure I'd really want to see the Devs' take on other branches of mythology.

That said, I reckon Incarnate content should have some god bashing involved so I can't see them stopping anytime soon. But I'd still rather fight Rularuu than another mythical figure.
