This Stormtrooper is so cute! Aww.  One of the things I really like about RPGs and MMOs is how the games pull on our emotions.  Anything from anger and frustration, to sadness and concern.  To me, one of the best ways to provide and immersible experience is to relate to players on levels that are …

Hello Game By Night readers! My name is Gavin or as most of my fellow adventurers know me, Yogi.  Let me start by throwing out a thank you to Chris for letting me have the chance to terrify and bore his reader base.  It’s not very often that someone is willing to let others play …
