After Paragon Studios shuttered its doors to City of Heroes (Arguably, one of the best superhero themed MMORPG), many thought that would be the last we'd see of the game. But wipe that sad look off your face and throw on bitchin' cape, because we are witnessing the spiritual successor, City of Titans, being born.

With over 100 developers, most of them being volunteers and fans of COH, Missing Worlds Media's City of Titans just successfully launched their Kickstarter. At the moment, they have raised $332,555 (Out of their goal of $320,00), with 27 days still left to go. I'd say its pretty safe to say that the public is taking a liking to COT.

In their Kickstarter video, they show the time-line of their development; their struggles and their successes. Showcasing their recent adoption of the Unity engine and how most recently they developed character creation; the world of COT has a familiar look with a lot of potential.

Having played city of heroes this announcement excites me..but I've also learned to be wary of the industry at large. I've read over the kickstarter and there's a lot of grandiose claims and hype--I'll not believe it until I see it.

Glad for them. This must be one of the most beautiful stories about a game and it's community.
Not a F2P game though. It's a B2P with cash shop and sub option.

Looks cool, I hope they make one change though. They should make it an action game instead of a click combat game. I guess if they want to keep it true to COH they would have to, make it a click combat, but fewer games are going in that direction.

Mounted. Yay my second one.
It looks a little promising but I'm probably going to prefer being a villain than a hero #GtaOnline
