Well, considering it's the second superhero game created by the company that created City of Heroes... What did you expect, really? Basically, COH/V was their first attempt at it and they painted themselves into a corner with their coding. A lot of the things they or the players would have liked to added after the game came out was just to difficult to do with the code the way it was. Either it would have been extremely time consuming or would have had serious impacts on other parts of the game. So they sold off the assets and started over again.
