This is Leandro's "farewell" video to City of Heroes.

This is the same guy who put together those amazing composite videos of the 3000+ heroes from the Unity Rally back in September. He's also helped other people make their videos. He's a code-slinger par excellance.

So you KNOW this is going to be something special.

This is both heartbreaking and uplifting.

If you think it's getting way too dark near the 2/3 mark - trust me - just wait. It gets MUCH better from there to the end.

Leandro says:

This video was supposed to be my "farewell to the official servers" video. On early November, I had the first minute and a half done. Then, my harddisk died, and it took 3 weeks to get a replacement.

By the time I got back to work on it, the servers had already shut down, and I had to rethink where I wanted this video to end. It still has some rough edges, but I am reasonably happy with the result.

Songs:

"Remains" by Maurissa Tancharoen & Jed Whedon, from "Dollhouse" (episode "Epitaph One").

"Where do we go from here?" from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (episode "Once More With Feeling").

Wow.

Just... wow.

This needs to be sent to everyone involved.

To NCSoft, to say basically 'Eff You!', we'll keep living.

To Disney, to say, 'This is our community. This is why you should revive the game.'

And to any other game company, to say, 'Take care of your Games.'

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to find a truckload of kleenex.
