Did the post thing, but I've boycotted Twitter for years now and won't post there.  Sorry.

I don't know if I would call City of Heroes the absolute best game of the past decade, but it at least deserves a spot on the list; which is more than I can say for just about every game on the list EW presented.

They're coming out looking a bit spammy like it's a bot doing it because they're so short and in a lot of cases impersonable.

This would make for a great side plotline in an episode of Bi Bang Theory.

I think we can make a bigger impact if on the entertainment weekly we also go and like or thumbs up every ones or a selected post about COH and save Coh. so it shows more impact that we spend time on their site to like all that agree with us.

When I left my comment, I was a little long winded...

" City of Heroes should be here. As an MMORPG, this game pioneered many new ideas you still don't see with even new games.

A massive Costume Creator matched by no one, you truly could create you own character not just in powersets, but appearance.

So many power combinations that a single account with paid VIP subscription could not hold every possibility, and new powersets were being introduced every few months.

Architect Entertainment allowed you to create your own mission content.

The Super Group Base allowed you to completely create a space for not just your characters, but those in your supergroup. The customization level of this was on par with maybe Minecraft and above The Sims franchise.

Teaming: As a player you could solo, or team with as many as 8 for mission or AE content. With a league you could push the boundries further by Teaming Teams. I was on one League with 32. What's more, the Super Sidekick system allowed the whole group to be at the level of the mission holder (if too far below, they'd be one level lower) which helped friends with new alts still team with each other no matter what character was being played.

The game was still viable after 8 years with a playerbase around 100k. Number of unique characters created... 43 million... and that was not the cap possible with the customization allowed.

There was so much more to CoH, and I am sad that NCSoft shut down this work of love and disbanded one of the best group of developers in the business. We still hope for a hero to swoop in and save the day, but though the lights have been turned off, our community is still strong and our voices raised high in tribute to this great game.

#SaveCoH"

Kheprera...what a wonderful and eloquent post! You truly represented for our community.
Listen to the 'mustn'ts'. Listen to the 'don'ts'. Listen to the 'shouldn'ts', the 'impossibles', the 'won'ts'. Listen to the 'you'll never haves', then listen close to me... Anything can happen . Anything can be.

I liked that one. I've gone through a few pages, "liking" any that weren't just the copy and paste short post. (I'm guilty, there, too.)
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."
