Chat’s Not Dead (It’s Just on Time Out)

Wolfshead’s latest post talks about the failing state of chat in MMOs today. Like all of his posts, it’s an enjoyable read and is delivered with all of the experience and eloquence we’ve come to expect from him. In it, he postulates that the current silence dominating 5-mans is an early indicator of MMOs losing …

Hello again, everyone! Hopefully this Monday is treating you kindly, but to help with that we’ve prepared another episode of The Multiverse for your listening pleasure. This week we had the pleasure of being joined by Green Armadillo of the Player Versus Developer blog. A big thanks goes out to him for tolerating Ferrel and …

Accessibility in Cataclysm – Blessing or Curse?

A Note Before We Begin: In no way is this a “WoW is dying,” dead, or other kind of jilted lover post. Just thought I’d get that out of the way first 😉 Edit: Title updated to better reflect my thoughts. Edit #2: I’ve been struggling to share the concern I have for Cataclysm-era WoW. …

The Post-WoW Haze

Something happens to me when I play WoW, and I’d bet it happens to a lot of players. When I play, I do it to the exclusion of most other games. I recall looking at my PS3 through this last bit and thinking that it looked a bit sad, gathering dust on its stand. My …

With Chris being gone and the readers of Game By Night at the mercy of whomever stops in and posts, I have decided to make my move and subject you all to yet another rambling from the dark recesses of my skull.  God Speed readers. Recently, I have been reading a lot of posts about …

Woah, two shows in one day?!?! Slow down, cowboy! Since we had technology troubles on 23.5, we got together again to do episode 24 proper justice. On this episode, we cut out the news and extras and get right into an hour of round table. This week, we’re talking: Negativity in MMOs, Used game sales, …

The Multiverse – Episode #23.5: “Can You Hear Me Now?”

Hey guys, Long time no see! I know, it’s been too long, but we’re back. This episode actually demonstrates some of the technological issues we’ve been running into trying out new recorders. Unfortunately, Ferrel echoes throughout; however, the content itself was too good not to share — hence, 23.5 and not 24. We talk about …

ToC-10 as a Starter Raid Instance

I’ve finally been able to get in on the raiding game in World of Warcraft. Signing up with Chaotic Damnation has been a great decision and I now find myself as one of the guild’s two main tanks for the foreseeable future. The transition into raiding hasn’t been that bad since I’ve raided with PuGs …

LotRO’s Cash Shop and Where It Leads

Throughout the transition period, I’ve done my best to support Turbine and Lord of the Rings Online. As a lifetime subscriber, the change to freemium meant very little for me – and, still do. So, while I empathized with players terrified of what the changeover meant for them, I couldn’t exactly share their fear. That’s …

One New Raid, One New Guild: Or, There’s Life Left in WoW For Me Yet!

If you’ve been following this blog for a while, you probably know that I’ve been feeling a little topped out on WoW lately. I was stuck in the heroic rut without much hope of getting out. This week has been a roller coaster ride as I’ve struggled to pull myself out. Thankfully, it looks like …
