Okay, I've got sad news on the DC Universe Online front. For some pretty silly reason, some feminist idiots complained to the devs that the 'Serious' class female characters (of which my Miss Midnight is one of) walked too sexy. And stupidly enough, the devs listened and changed the walking animation. Now, instead of the lovely, never-gets-old glide she had before, my leather-clad femme fatale now hobbles about like someone jammed a monkey wrench up her ass... which is probably just as bad anyways. You can see the truly horrible change in this comparison video I whipped up. See it and weep.
So apparently in the DCU, sexy femme fatales walk like Rain Man.
It's so bad that I now do not find it worth the coin to renew my subscription, whose 30 free days ran out recently (apparently it runs in real time, not in times you play or are logged in). Also, since I can't play regularly, it's really not worth the money I invest in it.
So here is, as far as I can tell, the last issue of Miss Midnight. In this installment, her exploits bring her into contact with two of Gotham's deadliest females- the slinky Catwoman and the ruthless Huntress. Can you say, catfight? Anyway, who knows- If I find out the walking animation's been fixed and I find it worth it, maybe Miss Midnight's saga will continue. But don't hold your breath. There are other games out there, with more barefoot babes to find and worship. Just remember Midnight fondly as the darkly beautiful, barefoot avenging angel that she is, lovely, softly tip-toeing into your room, stroking your cheek with her perfect, smooth bare soles, inviting you to kiss her pearly tipped toes. What a way to go!
Crushing Brainiac can wait… for now, Gotham is in Miss Midnight’s sights.
The adventures of my own original barefoot femme fatale supervillainess continues! When we last left the lovely and lethal Miss Midnight, she had just escaped from Brainiac’s starship and found a nice lace to cool her heels in the criminal underworld safe house known as The Tap Room. But of course, hanging around doing nothing save make some foot-loving thugs’ mouths water as she teases them with her perfect feet is pretty boring for Mistress M., so in a flash she was padding off on a mission of mayhem for The Joker in Gotham City.
Watch Miss Midnight grind Gotham's Finest under her heel (lucky bastards).
So what does this goth enchantress and gun-kata genius do to get started in the big, wide world of the DCU? Well, destroying public property, beating up pesky law enforcers, freeing captured mobsters and then bribing rookie cops, that’s what! It doesn’t take long for Midnight to rack up a pretty high body count, as well as acquire for the Falcone Mob their own private unit inside the Gotham Police Force (who also moonlight as her own personal footstools).
Heck, don’t take my word for it- watch our leather-clad assassin babe run, leap, shoot and kick her way through her second outing in DCU Online yourself. Enjoy!
Gotham City is now the new stomping grounds for The Barefoot Assassin.
Hah! Gotham City’s a cakewalk (Mmm... icing all over Miss Midnight's toes..) so far, but Miss Midnight is getting a bit big for her non-existent boots. It’s only a matter of time before some heroes show up to make things a bit hot. What’s gonna happen next in the Midnight Trail?
Meet Anita Carver AKA Miss Midnight, my barefoot super-vixen in DCU Online!
I'm having quite a lot of fun with in DC Universe Online, the superhero-themed MMORPG. I've already introduced you all to my first avatar in this interactive comic book world, the lovely and fiery Hot Chick. Well, goaded by a viewer's suggestion, I went on and created my second character for DCUO. This new barefoot babe however is about as different from my Flaming Super-Spiker as Night is from Day. Whereas Hot Chick is lively, vivacious, a fighter for justice and almost as scantily-clad as a bikini model, my new goddess is a creature of the night. A darkly enchanting Goth beauty, at home in the shadows, cloaked in smooth, black leather. Her heart is cold and deathly still, yet her eyes gleam with malevolent fury. She's a psychic superninja, a deadly mistress of gun-kata and a peerless hunter in the darkness. Her name is Miss Midnight!
Creating a hot, barefoot Goth superninja and gun-kata warrior was never this easy!
A former special operative attached to Checkmate, a world-spanning secret organization, Anita Carver was at the top of her game, rivaling the skills of even the renowned Sasha Bordeaux. Indeed, it took literally an entire army to finally bring her down... almost. On the verge of death from blood loss, Anita was suddenly yanked back to the world of the living by the powers showered down throughout the Earth by the Future Lex Luthor. When she awoke, her senses were razor-keen, in fact, she could sense the heartbeat of individual creatures from the ground, through the soles of her feet. Her skin was pale as moonlight, her body now a semi-living weapon of total mayhem. Rising from Brainiac's prison, Anita- now calling herself Miss Midnight- decided to be a merciless weapon dealing out death to all she deems unfit to live! Heroes and villains alike, beware!
Lovely, lovely views are guaranteed when playing with a hot, barefoot supervillainess.
I have to admit, I am having a LOT of fun with Miss Midnight. For starters, she's amazingly hot. There's just something incredibly cool and sexy about the long black leather trenchcoat... perhaps it's the way it teasingly waves about, letting Midnight's pale, smooth calves and ankles peek through as she walks- no, glides- about. And man, does she have a sexy walk. Like a dark, more bad-ass version of Lara Croft (it must be the dual pistols). While Miss Midnight can't fly, she has superhuman agility and acrobatic powers, allowing her to cover ground on foot with the speed of a race car, her smooth, bare soles carrying her over any terrain, and even up vertical surfaces. How powerful must those perfect legs be, to allow her to leap distances like some human missile.
Brainiac's mechanical minions are no match for the lethal mistress of gun-kata!
The next video has Midnight hanging out in the villain safe house known as 'The Tap Room', where she can rest, lay low, equip with the deadliest new weapons, get contracts and jobs, or just put her feet up and have some lackey give them a well-deserved massage (villainy has got its perks!). It doesn't have much action, but damn if it isn't just awesome enough to just watch this stunning femme fatale walk sexily around on her silent bare feet!
This is only the beginning... Miss Midnight is thirsting for BLOOD.
I'm having tons of fun both playing and watching my new vixen kick ass and look amazing doing it. Rest assured, there will be more of her adventures to come. TO BE CONTINUED! Off to find some poor devils to crush beneath her feet...
She's fiery, powerful, fearless and shoeless! She's Hot Chick!
Massively-Multiplayer Online Role-playing games (MMORPGs) aren't usually a region of videogaming that I get into since I am very leery of pay-to-play subscriptions and often monotonous gameplay. But these games are also known for having cool customization options, including, of course, the option to have your sexy female avatars in skimpy outfits and bare feet (such as the recently posted Mabinogi Heroes). Well, here's one MMO that I have been able to get into, since (1) it was available on PS3 and (2) the price to play isn't that bad and I get 30 days of playtime free with my copy. The game is DC Universe Online, the online RPG that lets you create your own meta-human marvels and fight alongside/against the greatest heroes and villains of DC comics.
Hot Chick takes shape in DCU Online's awesome Character Creation feature.
As cool as having Batman call me up for help or have Wonder Woman give me the thumbs up, my main joy in DCU Online is, of course, to create my own, original barefoot superbabe to fly about and show off her skills AND her sexy soles. So without further ado, here's my first super creation in DCUO: The sizzlin' spitfire, Hot Chick!
24-year old Denise Strauss AKA Hot Chick was an on-the-rise swimsuit model and beach volleyball star athlete prior to her being showered with strange powers spread by the future Lex Luthor throughout the planet. One moment she was spiking a ball, the next she was wreathed in flame and passing out (from one hell of a sunstroke!). She wakes up later in Brainiac's ship, alone and disoriented. The game always begins with your hero trapped in Brainiac's maze-like starship.
Brainiac's starship is a huge maze teeming with robot guards, but since it's the starter dungeon getting past the opposition shouldn't be any problem unless you really, really, really suck. Nicely enough you always have control over the camera, letting you get great views of your heroine's sexy soles (though close-ups are a bit hard). Whether she's flying, running about or kicking enemy butt, at least you'll always have something nice to look at. The character models' feet aren't that detailed, but they're nice enough and are very smoothly animated. Sexy sole shots and hot views are easy to get with the controllable camera.
Anyway, soon after awakening in Brainiac's prison, the take-no-prisoners athlete in Denise came to the fore, and she quickly broke out of her prison, took stock of her situation, and soon was determined to make the best of her new powers and new life as Hot Chick, the fiery, sexy superheroine! Oh, and she gets a bit of a crush on Superman when she meets him (with those biceps, he must give great foot massages!). Hot Chick later found out that, along with her ability to control and project heat and flame, she could fly and was greatly resistant to any physical injury- which meant she didn't need to wear crappy boots or high heels... she can now go barefoot and be as free as she wished she could be- an eternal day at the beach!
Hot Chick's first adventure: Escape from Brainiac's Ship!
After breaking free from the alien prison, Hot Chick finds herself in a temporary safe haven... but her fate is uncertain. She's now just a lone wolf in a dangerous new world, teeming with other metahumans, both good and evil. Will she survive to become a truly awesome heroine? Will there be willing followers who'll give her soothing foot massages for her tired feet after a day's crimefighting? Well, at least one question has a ready answer- this sexy sun goddess will always have us foot fans to give her and her feet the worship they deserve. More adventures of this fiery babe to come. TO BE CONTINUED!
What lies in store for Hot Chick? Stay tuned for more!
