Last I knew Bungie said there were no plans to develop Destiny for PC.  However, that's really just as well because the end-game grind for ascendant shards/energy gear upgrades, not to mention the extra junk you need to get post-DLC to upgrade gear with, will drive people so crazy they'll quit in a couple months anyway.   I killed myself on PS4 for 2 1/2 months to get all these upgraded exotics, and suddenly post-DLC, the legendary vendor junk was better and I was told to trash everything and start over in a sense.  Pffft to that, I quit and never went back.

If it weren't for the raids and the beautiful mechanics of that game I would of quit 2 weeks in.  Basically Bungie addresses their mistakes with both the DLC and the original game and say they can fix it.  I have hope.  CoH at launch and CoH at sunset were completely different games.  Diablo 3 was awful for the first year.  I just hold on to the idea that it will one day be a great game.  Plus its a lot of fun to play with a bunch of friends I haven't spoken to in years.

Speaking of which
 
I miss CoH.  Waiting patiently for news.

I played CO for years but the content just isnt there....CoX had the content and was well worth it - if only i can convince my people of that when/if CoX comes back.
If we set it on fire it'll burn....but that'd leave evidence...I KNOW ! COMPLETE ATOMIZATION! WOOOO!

I don't mind DCUO every now and then, mainly because it is easy on the eyes. I get what you're saying though, that game is essentially what CoH would look like if the only thing focused on was end game content. With most games focusing on end game grinds lately I'll be lost in euphoria if I get to slowly work my way back to 50 in our wonderful city.

Yep, when CoX is back, I plan to level a few toons from 1 to 50 the old-school route.... Through the Hollows and everything.  Ah, great times!  I so miss handing FrostFire his head about 17 times.

I wonder, when the game returns, who will be the first to get to 50?  You know some people are going to race to 50 as fast as they can.

I won't have to power level to hit 50 fast I will tell you that.  Super teams aplenty with my plans.
Currently; Not doing any streaming, found myself with less time available recently.  Still playing starbound periodically, though I am thinking of trying other games.  Don't tell me to play mmohtg's though please :).  Getting back into participating in VO and the successors again to.

They should have a badge just for the first one to get to 50.  I don't know what to name it but it should be unique.

Heh.  Indeed - they'll be a race for this, I'm sure, and the power-levelers will miss everything to level up in an afternoon.  Towards the end, I'd gone in the exact opposite direction, using ParagonWiki to assemble a spreadsheet of contacts and mission arcs by zone and level that I didn't want to miss.

I don't plan to level as quickly as possible, but I also don't plan to try doing every possible arc on my way up either.  I imagine there will be a lot of people running DFB to get things rolling, which I expect I will take part in.  I expect I will also take part in my favourite zones such as Faultline and Croatoa.

While I have a looooong list of characters I would like to make eventually, I have it narrowed down to a "short" list of 8 that I intend to make early on, largely representing my favourite ATs (3 controllers, a WS, 1 tank, 1 MM, 1 blaster and 1 dom.  The blaster is the only AT of those I never took to 50.)  Exactly which of those I will focus on at the beginning and which will be the first to 50, I have no idea.  Keep changing my mind.  I don't expect to be one of the earliest getting to 50 again, but I don't think it will take me that long either.

It'll probably take me a while to hit 50 and i'm planning to enjoy every minute.
