While Massively focuses on a lot of the bigger games on the market, the World of Warcrafts and Warhammer Onlines out there that define fantasy MMOs for many gamers, we still like to keep our eyes on the lesser-discussed MMO titles. Which leads me to my point -- we're on to you Hello Kitty. We've said this before and we'll probably say it again, Hello Kitty has her cute little eyes set on nothing less than absolute global domination through Hello Kitty Online.
It began with her decking out Beijing with even more stars than the real Beijing, a feat most thought impossible, much less swathing the city in pink and purple hues. We've since learned that she wants Brazil, as well as Singapore and Malaysia, in her little paws. Apparently the next phase of her plan involves new avatar customization options with cute little... outfit... thingies... in the item mall. It's diabolical! Just check out the screengrabs below, if you dare.
All kidding aside, we're not really down on HKO, and we do think Hello Kitty Online is going to be a popular game. While HKO isn't necessarily a title most of you come here to read about at Massively, one of the world's most recognizable icons pairing up with MMOs is a pretty big deal. We think so, anyway.

Dunno, eventually she will have to battle Mickey Mouse in a true epic battle of east vs west.

Pffffffft. Fool.
Everyone knows that Hello Kitty would win.
Cats eat mice therefore she wins.

This literally hurts my eyes; I can feel the cute actually burning through the occular cavity, attempting to arrest my senses and seize control of my cerebral cortex.
Seriously, though, it is too bright.

You people laugh, but here's what disturbs be about this game.
Rule 34 + HKO.
These are the thoughts that keep me up at night.

Fellow MMO players, we have here an opportunity!
All we need is a Twilight MMO and WoW will be great once more, like pre-BC levels of actual skill.
All the casuals and melee hunters will have a new place to talk smack whilst duel-spamming you outside a mailbox!
We must encourage Hello Kitty!
She will save us!
