I bought Secret World a few weeks ago. I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm not usually into horror-type settings, but Secret World feels a lot like a Dresden Files MMO, so I'm really digging it.

Not just the Illuminati intro. In every male character intro, you see your character shirtless in bed. Pretty ripped for an average guy, too. It's weird that there's no option for men to go shirtless, especially considering that female characters can do so (wearing various bras or bikini tops, but still shirtless).

Barber's right outside the London Agartha entrance, I think.

Goodbye, I guess.

Played TSW for a couple of months and quit due to finances. Will pick it up for a month for the Halloween event since you would expect an MMO that could put in creatures like Cthulu and have it make sense with the storyline of the game would make a great Halloween event. Certainly doubt there ability to make a great Valentine's day or Christmas event though.

Got to QL10 and completed the Slayer, Necromancer, and Grifter decks. Completed most missions except for some of the hard missions from the Transylvania zones. Haven't touched a dungeon yet or tried the Rocket Launcher. They certainly put effort into introducing missions with their cutscenes.

Although, auxiliary weapons appear interesting. So Rocket Launcher is released with supposedly Chainsaw on the way and there is still 2 ranged weapons to fill, 3 melee weapons to fill, and 3 magic weapons to fill. Should be an interesting game. Just too bad it doesn't have the freedom that CoH has with character customization in the costume department.

The first step in being sane is to admit that you are insane.
