Maybe a poetry recitation is a pretty dull affair if you stumble into one at a coffeehouse in real life, but in Project Gorgon, it’s the social event of the week that draws all the partiers — and giant glowing green bears — to slam down some lyrics and boost some skills. There once was […]

So despite the fact that I am a devout City of Heroes person on this site, I have something of a minority opinion in that I have never liked the original login music for the game. No, really. I think the replacement tune used for when the game went free-to-play sounds much better, and I will die on […]

In the Venn diagram comparing WoW Classic and Lord of the Rings Online, there’s a large overlapping section that simply says “chill gameplay.” And that’s probably why I appreciate both titles: because they feed that need I have to slow down, drink in the game world, and focus on a long leveling journey with no […]

Yes, we’ve got news from a Star Wars Galaxies emulator that isn’t SWGL for you all today. This time we’re highlighting Star Wars Galaxies Restoration III, the mashup CU/NGE variant that had a 1.0 release in 2022, which is preparing to launch its new Shatterpoint major content update for the classsic sandbox. “Shatterpoint introduces unique content and mechanics, turning […]

Join us for our weekly open thread! We're discussing what MMOs we're playing this weekend and answering a bonus question about movies you've somehow never seen...

If someone was keeping track of MMORPG gaming achievements that encompassed all of your online career, would you have earned that special award that said that you — yes you — had tried and played a 2-D MMO at some point in your life? There aren’t a lot of them out there, but it’s not […]

Would you like to have your design skills immortalized in Skull and Bones? Then you’re in luck because that opportunity is available during an official second anniversary contest, which will grant creative fans of the piratical playground the chance for their custom sail and emblem to be a part of the game. From now until March 8th, […]

You would think that adding an all-new class to an old game like Diablo II: Resurrected would be a happy event, but then you also likely have never experienced ARPG players in public forums and subreddits, who primarily appear to be the angriest of human calculators. That appears to be the case among players of the game, […]

It takes all kinds for internet spaceship sandboxes like Star Citizen to hum, and one of those kinds is the industrialist player: the rock cruncher, the space trucker, the material and manufacturing magnate. If you’ve felt as if this aspect of the game is lacking, then maybe some planned updates from CIG will ease your […]

Amidst all the drama surrounding Highguard, you could be forgiven for potentially forgetting that the game is actually… like… playable. You can play it right now. And while it’s promising another new game mode soon, the newest patch features a new base in the form of Cloudreach that allows both elevated nests for snipers to use […]

Hey, who likes a weekend patch? Well, too bad because you’re getting another one in Project Gorgon this weekend as the tiny crew at Elder Game is busy busy busy. “[W]e are once again looking at a weekend patch update, which sucks for everyone! But there are some important fixes that need to go live,” […]

Robert Frost’s poem The Road Not Taken was published in August of 1915, and it has endured an immense popularity since then. Many people can quote the last couplet of the poem (“I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference”), and for years the title alone conjures images of […]

Last week, YouTuber Ross Scott shared an update on the Stop Killing Games movement and its upcoming visit to the European Union Commission, which will see the campaign officially provide the over one million signatures of a citizens initiative as well as provide representatives an opportunity to talk with the Commission about the shutdown of […]

This weekend will be Pokemon Go local Kalos Tour, and as we mentioned in our prep guide, it hasn’t been looking good. We’ve been expecting a big announcement to drop right before the event, and we were right, but it’s not a great one. The problematic-since-release feature, which has seen some improvement, is taking another […]

If you’ve been playing an MMORPG for long enough, you have hit that point before. Not the point wherein there is truly nothing to do in the game, but the point wherein you have accomplished all your goals, earned all your rewards, cleared everything you want. And so then you sit there, log into the game, […]

This week’s Massively Overthinking is inspired by a tweet I saw from SMITE, of all games, where the Hi-Rez devs asked players to propose one god to delete from the game. Obviously, this is not a serious proposition, but in the aggregate, the answers can kinda show a trend in what people are tired of, […]

The moment I first saw Witchspire was a thing, I knew the exact people in my life for whom the title alone was an alluring promise. I’m not exaggerating with that; there are people who mean the world to me who are here precisely for big witch hats, witch cottages, and everything that goes along with endless […]

Unless you’re on Instagram, you may have missed the news that Equinox Homecoming has launched a demo on Steam – we sure had, anyhow, before a reader tipped us off and we found the announcement buried on Reels, rather than on Steam itself or other social media. Perhaps by the time this post is live […]

We’ve all been there. You’re dragging yourself through another so-so gaming year, playing the same old titles, all while telling yourself that it’s about to get a lot more interesting, because a game you’ve been eyeing should come out before too long. And almost as if you jinxed a cosmic trickster, the next day you […]

If your first thought when hearing about Marathon’s March 5th release date was how that would immediately clash with Destiny 2’s plans for a major update for Renegades on March 3rd, well good news! It’s not going to get in the way anymore because Bungie is delaying that update for nearly four months. Wait, no, that’s the opposite of […]
