Admittedly, this is my first MMORPG that I've played...so, I have no other games to compare it to.....but....
THIS GAME ROCKS!
While the small set of powers (at least, starting powers) appears to be a bit limited, I kind of think of them in terms of HERO powers (and not the SFX).
The costuming options are awesome (although I wish I could get better conversion to JPG format). Definitely try out the random feature when creating a character. I've found about 70% of the random costumes to be very suitable (with just a bit of tweaking).
Teaming up with other players is definitely a lot of fun (my Martial Artist, Aquamarine, was teamed with a healer (Dr. Telin) and a blaster (Nova Starr).
It does require a newer, high-powered video card (I had to upgrade mine, had to reseat my RAM to install the card, then tried to install my RAM backwards...but that's a different story).
So, the total cost for me to start to play was about $280. But it's definitely money that was well spent.
