The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

Then ask if anyone has heard anything from devs or whatever, don't just ask the general populace for a definitive answer. And that's going beyond the basic stupidity of even thinking he would be in the game anyway. It's called DC Universe Online and Watchmen didn't happen in the DC Universe.

Also, this guy is new.

I would assume that the reason is because 1) Rorschach is not part of the canon of the DC Universe, even though it is a DC comic; in terms of the story of Superman et. al., Watchmen never happened; 2) His inclusion would almost instantaneously amped this up to an adults only game... he's not a very pleasant fellow, you know ?

But seriously, I would think it is mostly that since Watchmen is outside of the DC canon (if it came out today, it would have been a Vertigo book), he doesn't have a place in the DCUO.

You know you don't play AS these characters, right? It may be better that he isn't in it, then maybe you could make him to play yourself.

That's what I figure, you might get the clothing and options to build something like Rorschach. But it would make zero sense for him to be in the game as an NPC, because he's not a member of the DC Universe.

In the latest issue of Supergirl, that redheaded borscht spilling kid that works at the New Republic (and finds Rorschach's journal at the very end of the book) NOW works at the Daily Planet. No joking - he's even pushing the same cart he was in Watchmen AND wearing the same stained smiley shirt.

Can Rorschach be far behind?

Well, yes. He's dead.

I did read that Rorschach will be an NPC.

The question, probably. But Rorschach doesn't make sense. I'm hoping to set up a dev interview for GamerPops, so I'll ask if I get the chance.

Guys, I really want Rorschach in DC Universe Online. I looked at the list of heroes in Wikipedia, but I couldn't find Rorschach in the list.

I later, searched through Google for Rorschach in DCUO. I found this:
http://www.giantbomb.com/rorschach/94-6465/

If you scroll down, you can see it says that Rorschach is in DC Universe Online. But why isn't he in the list in Wikipedia.

So my real question is that is Rorschach in DCUO?

probably not

You own it?

I will be sure to checkout the interview.
