Remember the days when MA was useless because of the 2 second posings and subsequently rediculously long animation times? Sometimes the enemy would be defeated before you had even stopped posing....

...Oh, yes. Yes, someday they'll regret this. They'll regret the day the kicked me out of the planet club. They are fools for ignoring me. I'll collect my Oort cloud minions and then one day, ONE DAY, I'll return and show them the folly of their ways. For I. AM. PLUTO! And I shall not be denied!

Eventually someone will complain that you have to take 3 steps to get to the door and they'll change the spawn point to be right next to it.

A map's gotta load once you picked your mission, but you can just do with one big expanding treeview menu to select what you're gonna play.
That seems to be what we're heading towards...
It's funny, I've seen a lot of games start with such a mission terminal kind of thing and then grow from there as it got players and money and eventually entire universes would grow around it and the mission terminal would eventually be phased out.
Here it's the other way around. We're like degenerating towards it.
Oh, yeah... and they call it QoL.

it did look DARN cool though. I still would like to see it repurposed for another attack or at least having the hook-kick portion used for an alt animation.

I haven't even used the feature yet. I keep forgetting it's even there. 'Course, I'm still stubbornly putting off travel powers in favor of more attacks for an attack chain and running everywhere with good old sprint. I even forget we can call contacts much earlier now and am still running all over the Hollows like a fool, haha.
