For my latest column at MMORPG, I made a return visit to Fallout Online Fallen Earth. It’s been over three years since I last checked in and a lot had changed, but even more remained the same.

This is just a quick post to let you all know about a contest my buddy Ferrel is running. As you may know, he’s a co-host on the A View From the Top podcast and an all around guild-leading guru. Well, Icarus Studios took notice and gave him a crop of free Fallen Earth account …
