For those of us who missed touring around the NYC raid in The Secret World last week, our cabal had a reprise last night to check out Mega-C’thulu and all of the pretty scenery.
The raid starts in the NYC subway, where traumatized survivors are huddling after a massive monster attack. It was all fun and screenshots until we started listening to the incredibly disturbing song of a man rocking his baby. When you hear his macabre lullaby, it’s apparent the child is dead.
MMOGC was like, “Really? Do we need to start our night with dead babies? What is wrong with you, Funcom!”
There’s a bit of trash leading up to the big boss. The scenery and atmosphere is incredibly well-done — it makes me wish that there was a NYC adventure zone, to be honest.
When we got up through the parking garage, I asked the team to stop and pose in front of these headlights for a fun group shot. Love them shadows!
I’m back there in my bulky desert camo military gear that I’ve been buying with all of my Flappy fight proceeds. Speaking of which, we wrapped up the night with a Flappy raid and I actually got an outfit drop for the first time — a black turtleneck!
I’m going to take this TV news report as a snarky reference to the very-delayed Tokyo issue. Man, it had BETTER come out in March!
We took a couple of stabs at fighting Mr. Tentacles here, but with only 8 people we were there primarily for the screenshots. Y’know, as tourists. We did try to trigger the fight and hide to run out the clock and see the Air Force bomb us, but his eye lasers found us no matter where we went.
I really liked the Sam Kreig musical signs that were around Times Square, as well as the many references to Orochi and its subsidiaries.
