Now on to CoH, I am an avid roleplayer myself, yet the chatroom thingy is probably not for me. While I do 'social' roleplay (standing around and talking) from time to time, I tend to do more action roleplay, repurposing dungeons and quest areas for story. The only thing I may download it for is to re-create my characters so I can screenshot them, since my computer died shortly before CoH did and I never got the chance.
As for City of Titans, I am hopeful, and I like what I've seen so far. The fact is, no one is going to be able to recreate CoH exactly. I'm glad they're putting a lot into this game and I think however, whenever it comes out, I will try it. I don't think that will be soon, and while I think it will be somethng worthwhile and fun, it will never be CoH.
First the weekly episode of LotRO is really exciting and i am glad the devs Paying much attention on it. We shall respect to pay every month to play all content. So dont cry.
