I saw this game a while back when I went to the F2P section of Steam to get TF2. I tried it out a week ago, and I can say one thing. This is the only MMO I've played that hasn't bored me within 2 days.

I've probably spent 6 hours in the character creation screen, just because it's so fun and in depth. You can create anything you want as your character. For example, I've made a humanoid dragon ax wielder, a dark elf pyromancer, a modern-day looking soldier with a robotic arm, and a full on mech who freezes people with a wierd backpack thing.

The amount of customization is nuts, and basically guarantees your character will be completely unique. Plus, you can get travel powers like teleportation or flight.

The game also has a pretty good story. Sure it's cliche, but at least there is an actual reason given to all the quests.

Anyone play this game? If you want to join me, my steam is [EC]Sti_Jo_Lew.

Meh, champions online costumization is only good if you're a gold member. That's when all the pieces and all the super-powers are available from SCRATCH so you can build your hero how you like. Otherwise you'll be using pre-made super powers and even then you still have to pay to aquire other pre-made powers like "beast'' for example.

Downloading now.

Two hours, fifty-two minutes remaining.. Steam, y u so far away?

Post back on your findings as i might play this or DC online when it goes free looking for one of these F2P MMo's that's a little different from the norm

DC's horrid. Play Champions Oline instead.

That part hasn't bothered me really. I've mad quite a few different characters, and still have plenty of ideas without having the extra pieces. The power customization sounds cool though, I might have to actually pay for membership, for the first time ever in an MMO.

EDIT: Nvm, membership is $16 dollars a month, and $300 for lifetime. I was expecting it to be $5 or something. Screw it, sticking with silver.

I played in the beta for Champions, got bored with it after a week.

Have to admit, being a member made me Overpowered. My level 16 could do 2000+ damage... basically 1 or 2 hit everything ( pvp beast )

But yeah, after my membership expired I din't continue playing, to costy.

I'll try it anyway as it's free, but when i have time i'll download champions.

I hit max level in Champions Online on the free month I got with the game.

Then it ran out of content.
