Yeah, I'm Still Around.

Actually, I've been playing CoH more than usual, I just haven't been posting here for some reason.

My initial impression of this whole invention thing is disappointment. It seems to me the only thing these Enhancements do is take your money and make good characters better. In the Magic card game, it's referred to as a "win more" situation, as in, if you're already winning, you simply win faster. A few "IO"s give you a brief effect you wouldn't normally get, but these things are almost impossible to find and cost millions ...many millions... on the market. And the chances of me getting one of these (or a costume) drops? I stand a better chance of having a real thug in real Chicago drop a real recipe for real wings.

An interesting side effect seems to be that I don't switch toons/servers nearly as much. Greed perhaps, but I prefer to think of it as a renewed interest in fleshing out my primary toons. It could also be greed.
