this is an interesting look, complete with a fire aura. I would say this one has the defensive powerset that is a damage shield...

all I am looking for is more than the handful of cookie cutter minions that COH offered

Bring that my main is an Undead I do hope we get more options then slumbering rotten corpse.

A more mummified look is my personal wish.

this one is invisible except for the costume and aura. I don't know if that option will be available for players but it will be needed for a headless horseman.

We have two different factions of ghosts currently slated for launch. One is your classic Generic Ghosts, the other is the angry about being dead ones.
Infer appearances based on that however you will.

Don't forget that the library is a node of power with lots of magical artifacts... Ghostbusters would probably look at that place :D

Looks like they weren't expecting alien ghosts...

speaking of which, hope we someday get to fight some enemies with abilities that trigger once the original form is killed, and not just the traditional "self-destruct" or "resurrected in the same form" kind that the Vahz had.

I'd personally have no problem with having truly scary/frightening undead in CoT. But we do have to remember we're likely going to have little kids playing this game with their parents. So while I assume we'll get things that'll look a tad bit more horrific than this:

Well I don't know about that, I mean yeah full on gore filled undead would be too much, but a Nosfuratu style vampire? Kids these days are smarter than people give them credit for, an undead that shouldn't be in the game is more like the Tarman or a zombie without skin stuff like that, not Nosfuratu vampires....

Please... I think you know what I meant by this. Did you really need me to spend hours linking to hundreds of various bloody/nasty examples? I basically just grabbed the first one I saw that was "worse" than Casper. *shrugs*

Clearly there WILL be a limit to exactly how obscene/grotesque any undead are going to be allowed to appear in this game.

That's OK... Chances are no matter which pic I used somebody probably would've thought "that's not scary at all". ;)

But anyway we already know this game is not likely to show any significant amounts of blood/guts so that's probably going to make any critter that's supposed to be "ultra-gruesome" relatively tame regardless. This is the compromise we get to live with for the "T for Teen" rating.

If you really want "unique and frightening" undead you have to accept that the classic "innocent protagonist being fully turned to the dark side" sequence was handled by [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_Me_In_%28film%29]Let Me In[/url]:

[img=400x400]http://www.heebmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/letme1.jpg[/img]

about a million times better than this clunker of a movie:

Please not too frightening. That's the main reason I stopped playing TSW. Every which way I turned there was a horrifyingly scary creature chasing me.

My understanding is they're going for a variety of tones in different parts of the city, but are going out of their way to make sure there's variant leveling paths. As a result, you can do that one zone you skipped with you main on your alt... or avoid that one place you despise altogether.

An infinite number of tries doesn't mean that any one of those tries will succeed. I could flip an infinite number of pennies an infinite number of times and, barring genuine randomness, they will never come up "Waffles".

That's true. And I forgot that there will be flight. That's one thing I hated about TSW, I had to run through the bad areas and I could never just fly over to get to a mission.
