I used to play Champion pnp a long long time ago, so anyone who currently still owns the game can add to this, or correct me if I'm wrong...but....as I remember it, you could create a character so that right off the bat it wasn't good OR evil, it was your "reputation" that determined how the world saw you. So, if you gained enough "good" reputation, your "evil" character would slowly be turning public opinion of you to a more neutral stance, and you could even go "good". Depends on how you played it. The reputation is what determined if when you showed up on the street, the local cops came to try to arrest you, or they called in the Army, or a "SuperGroup" (good or evil) that has it out for you!
I hope they adopt some of this into the gameplay, then good or evil is based solely on how YOU play the character...kill innocent civilians, destroy too much public property with little to know gain....that would probably satisfy most folks that you are too destructive and they don't want you around. You may actually have to think a little before you picked up that bus full of school kids and used it to crush that "weevil guy" without any repurcussions from the public (unless you are going evil of course).
In the real comics, heroes had to be keenly aware of how the public viewed them. Hopefully they add some of this to this game...

I don't know whether to go pick up my CE for this game or not.....I beta tested, and was in the head start program, but I just can't get into it. When I played DAoC, I couldn't wait to get into the game and I'm not getting that excitement for this game, even though I've been waiting for it a long time.
I really can't put my finger on WHY I'm not enjoying myself, but I don't think that I am. Yet, I don't think it's a bad game, maybe I'm just spoiled....I've played most of the mmo's available at one time or another and usually I can make up my mind very quickly if I like something or not. This is the first time i've ever been this uninspired to play a game in a long time.
Oh well, maybe I'm bored....or maybe I'm just ambivalent to it.
