City of Heroes is about to turn 8 years old and with that come heated discussions on the internet about whether City of Heroes 2 has been started and what it might contain.
To that I would argue that City of Heroes might not now, or in the near future, need a sequel. What would a sequel bring to the table that CoH isn’t already providing?
Would anyone who has played the game argue that the only real problem with the game (aside from design choices) is its limited engine?
If so one could also make the point that it has to have been partially rewritten by now considering the new content of the last 8 or 9 issues. If that is the case, is the costly development of a whole new game warranted?
