Apr. 25th, 2014 09:26 pmThe thing is, I was on steam the other day because I have a new computer that will actually play some of the games I want to play (I am finally playing Mass Effect!) and they had that DC Universe Online thing that you can play for free. And I am weak for DC comics, so I installed it, thinking that if I hated it, I would not have spent any money.
And then I spent several hours today designing a character with ice powers, superspeed*, and a kicky little yellow skirt, and then wandering around Gotham beating up police officers. Because if you can play a DC MMORPG as the Golden Glider, why the hell wouldn't you? My only regret is that I couldn't give her ice skates.
Flash villains = still the best.
*No, Glider doesn't have superspeed. But you have to pick a movement type and the other two are "flight" and "acrobatics". Since there is no option for "generates a gravity-defying ice flow with her own skates", I chose superspeed because it's at least thematically appropriate.
