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 …

The Case for the Hero Class
I’ve been gone from World of Warcraft for some time, but, since returning, I’ve found myself reminded why I fell in love with WoW: the dungeons. Tonight, it was Violet Hold. Though exceptionally quiet (not a word spoke until the final boss was downed), it was a good run; quick and easy. I was able …
The Multiverse – Episode #18: “You are my Cold Sore (featuring Syp)”
Welcome back, everybody, to another episode of The Multiverse. We were happy to be joined by a surprise guest this week, Syp from Bio Break and his new digs at Massively! We covered the week’s news (which lead to some extensive and great conversation), what Syp’s been up to for Massively, and entered into Blog-o-Whirl …
Don’t Blame Blizzard for a Stagnant Industry
In one of the most poignant and well written posts on the topic I’ve seen, Wolfshead blames Blizzard for the stagnation that’s he sees as plaguing the MMO industry. He has a lot of good reasons why he feels this way, not the least of which being that they’ve done very little to advance the …
Some Assembly Required: The $25 Article
Hey Guys, I’m 8 minutes late in letting you know! Sorry about that. My latest article is up at Lagwar and in it I discuss the $25 CashCat SOE just dropped on their player base. I have a question for you guys, too. Why was everyone up in arms at Blizzard and so few EQ2 …
Why WoW is like an old Shoe
That might sound derogatory, but I promise it’s not. As I mentioned a while back, I re-upped my subscription to WoW for this month. My re-entry into the game has been a bit hap-hazard, I’m afriad. My original plan was to work on my Death Knight and pull him the rest of the way to …
The Multiverse – Episode #17: “Ferrel Offends EVERYbody”
Happy Tuesday Folks, Another week, another Multiverse. Riknas was under the weather this week, so it was just Ferrel and I, with Ferrel at the helm. I’ve gotta say, I kind of like being a co-host. And a harvest queen– you’ll just have to listen to get that one. Ferrel was in rare form, too. …
SW:TOR Advanced Classes… WoW Talent Specs?
The internet has been a-buzz with talk about Star Wars: The Old Republic’s newly announced Advanced Class system. It looks neat, in a lot of ways, but I guess I’m a little disappointed. The system looks like a carbon copy of WoW’s talent trees, without the third option. Here’s a look at the comparison my …
Some Assembly Required: Tourism is the Lifeblood of the Industry
Happy Friday All, Just stopping in to let you know that my latest article is live over at Lagwar now. This week we talk about WoW tourism and why it’s a good thing for the industry. Since there’s nothing new here today, why don’t you stop over and have a look?
