You know, there’s a lot of great things I’d like to say about Darkfall. Like, how they’re setting a new precedent for patch releases and content upgrades. How they’re the premiere competitor for any MMO company releasing patches. How they’re more of a true MMO than any of the current crop of Disneyland games overwhelming …

Appreciating the little things
You know, when we’re playing a game, a lot of times we take little details for granted. I know that I’m guilty of that, instead focusing on issues like PvP, questing, spells, and the rest of the store front systems we’re so used to discussing. Today, I’d like to take a moment and look at …
Aion: wait, you got HOW MUCH xp for that kill?!
Okay, so if that’s how much xp you get for one boss kill at level 47, can you imagine how much she needs to level? Adma Castle looks like a very atmospheric instance though, which I love for immersing myself in a game. Cool stuff. Now, if Fylina does that instance another 17,856 times, she …
Enough with this WoW Clone crap
I’ve heard this thought echoed across the internet for months now and it’s getting a little old. Aion Online is not a “WoW Clone.” By repeating that little bleet, all you’re doing is proclaiming your ignorance of what the game is even about. What is it that makes a game a clone of WoW anyways? …
The real impact of cross server dungeons
One of the lesser known tidbits of information to come out of Blizzcon is that WoW will soon support cross server dungeons. This is an update they plan to release before the expansion hits in one of the few remaining major patches headed our way. When I first read about this, I was ecstatic. As …
Ace of Cakes: Warhammer Edition (pictures)
Tonight marked a big night for the Warhammer crew. It was the night the world saw their very own cake, modeled after a squig and it’s loveable throaty friend, the goblin! The show was entertaining to watch. Duff and the crew at Charm City cakes outdid themselves on this one and gave us some good …
A Month at Warcraft: the first five levels (and reminded of Aion)
Since I’m spending this month getting re-acquainted with WoW, I thought that it might be a good idea to share this revisit with you all. We all know that “going home” isn’t always the same as when you first started, for better or worse. I’m not going to spend a lot of time in this …
Champions and the rest: just go for it
Let me ask you a question. Have you ever been excited for a game and let a review talk you out of buying it? If your answer is yes, let me encourage you to throw that hesitancy to the wind and go for it. Don’t let someone else’s opinion of the game ruin it for …
A Month at Warcraft
I decided today that I’m going to resubscribe to WoW until Aion Online launches in September. I’ve been dangling dangerously at the precipice of resubbing for a while now, especially since MMO-Champion leaked all of the details on the upcoming expansion but what officially made me take the dive was visiting a couple of friends …
