A couple of quick and dirty concepts -
First, a background. Since we can't use the NCsoft logo, I've tried to come up with something that's evocative without being all... infringe-y.
This one... I'm not really sure about, since I'm worried it might come off as coming on too strong on the threat facet - the streak in question is, naturally, the string of shut-down and shuttered MMOs.
I'll admit I'm proud of the tagline on this - it's short, simple, focuses on the positive, plays into the whole "sunset" euphemism for shutdown and emphasizes that it's always possible to bounce back from a negative event.
The composition for these two is an absolute mess, so if anyone thinks they can fix it, that would be awesome. I've borrowed the picture from
EspionageDB7 - I've dropped him a note asking if he'd be okay with us using it, as well as checking if there's a version without the red background, given the whole contextual meaning of red color in Korean culture.
As for text, I considered the plural - "the torches are still burning", to imply that there's still a lot of us around, but I think it would have come off as a torches-and-pitchforks kind of deal, rather than "there's still plenty of interest, for good or ill".
The "be a hero" is kind of a multi-pronged deal. It implies that NCsoft has the option to sell CoH out of the goodness of their hearts {or, far more likely, to look that way} as well as a reminder about the "exhausted all options" dismissiveness. Or that they can continue going the way they've been and come off looking the villain.
Think there's anything worthwhile these can be hammered into? Design is not my strong point.
