The worst part about it is that we will no longer have to suffer through the terrible, pathetic less-than-an-excuse for a powerset that Energy Aura is because of all the sweet, long-desired and super cool improvements they're making to it.
Just when I thought there was ONE last set I could still hate on, the devs had to come along and ruin it.

Powerset proliferation? Really? Giving things to other AT's that once belonged only to a few? What's next? Super Strength for scrappers? A new primary/secondary in Time Manipulation? A powerset that I am anxiously awaiting while activally trying not to hold my breath. Seriously I have not been this excited about a powerset since Dual Blades and Willpower. Titan Weapons? A set that takes my freakish love of Anime and FF7 (Advent Children) and gives me an outlet to play said set while being a hero? What's next? Making it so if I happen to miss a month's payment I can still play? Calling it Freedom and making it so I can choose when I want to pay? Seriously Devs, I am so apointed (read; opposite of DISapointed) with the direction this game is going, I may just renew my subscription and keep playing. This game has finally "gone to the americans" *The above not real rant is a tongue in cheek reference to the doom criers and nay sayers. I love this game, I love this community, and in all the games I have played, never have the Devs listened to the players as much as in this game. Excellent work Devs, and please keep it up. You are only making me happier and happier with each new announcement* |

It reminds me of this Cingular commercial from a while back.
We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)

Hey, I'm pretty fond of Energy Aura as it exists now. If it were positional defense instead of typed, I'd say it's the set Super Reflexes should have been.|

Of course, I'm certainly not complaining about the improvements they're making...

Main Villain: Evil Gulzow-Man (Victory) 50, 1193 Badges

Not a Real Comment
Not a post commenting on the other stuff that wasn't mentioned in the OP.
Also, not a rant about lack of coffee.
Still @Shadow Kitty
"I became Archvillain before Statesman nerfed himself!"
Not just a plus +1 which restates everything already said, probably worse and merely echoes the sentiments of other posters, possible conflicting ones at the same time for the sake of making a post.

And they have to go and ruin it with an all-new tutorial and lowbie experience, and letting me make redside ATs in Paragon at level 1. Curse you Devs!

Mercenaries used to be a LOT worse when wonky pet AI prevented the Spec Ops from using their Sniper Rifles and the Commando from using his Long Range Missile. However, I still find Mercs to be a somewhat underperforming set as Serum sucks and the Spec Ops controls recharge too slowly and are immune to slotting. It was good enough to get me through to 50 in the days before inherent Stamina and AoE pet buffs, but it still lags behind the rest of the sets.|

As for a very real response, this mass of powerset proliferation couple with opening up all generic ATs on both sides of the game is a massive increase in freedom of choice. So massive will my freedom become that I actually find myself overwhelmed with choice, unable to even comprehend all of it yet. That's why I made my AT <-> Concept thread, so I could get some idea of what the overlapping ATs represent and what I should see them as. City of Heroes post Freedom should be an amazing thing if it turns out like I hope it will.

Oh, and someone tell the Devs that they failed on two accounts.
1. They failed to disappoint me.
2. They failed to give me reason to cancel my subscription.
