It’s an odd feeling really. Even in single-player games I have never been a completionist. I have always done side quests here and there while mainly focusing on the core of the game. I complete maybe 50-70% of each zone before moving on either from boredom or due to simply wanting to complete the game or the part of the story I am on. Posted Jun 21, 2018 by Josh Hay
It’s all talk at this point, but I like what I’m hearing. Last year, EA got my attention with Anthem, the BioWare developed response to games like Destiny and The Division, but it was what I heard (and saw) at E3 2018 that got me truly excited for the game’s launch early next year.Posted Jun 21, 2018 by Michael Bitton

The World Health Organization (WHO) announced "gaming disorder" as a new mental health condition. (Who’s on first?) We of the MMORPG tribe have long joked about Evercrack, Warcrack and the even newer Crocaine but what classifies our fanish love with toxic addiction? According to WHO (don’t you mean whom...wait...) three main factors. Posted Jun 20, 2018 by Tim Eisen

Fallout 76 stole a lot of the “show” at E3 last week. How could an always online multiplayer Fallout not do that? Still, there’s a lot about this upcoming game we don’t know, despite the interviews and previews coming out of the big reveal. We know it’ll have PVP, we know it’ll have PVE, and we know that’ll be very much a Fallout game, just in an always online and persistent world. Here then are five things I want from Fallout 76 to make it worth playing.Posted Jun 19, 2018 by William Murphy

Years ago, old school MMOs created the scenes of many players at the same time. We all remember those feelings of lag when other players hit the area. Now, Mavericks looks to turn Proving Grounds into a game where hundreds of players can interact. We spoke to Bill Roper, game and MMO veteran, about how the game works and what Improbable will do for the future. Posted Jun 18, 2018 by Garrett Fuller
The VersaDesk Power Pro standing desk converter is an interesting item. On one hand it turns any desk capable of becoming one into a standing desk without the need to buying one outright. However, the flip side of this is that when using it as a standing desk is severely limits working space. In the end, though, it’s a great accessory for those looking to get a bit more circulation while working or gaming for long stretches.Posted Jun 18, 2018 by Joseph Bradford
Elder Scrolls Blades is the new offering from Bethesda on mobile phones. The success of Fallout Shelter has made them build on the Elder Scrolls property and bring it with you anywhere. Sure, you can already do that with the Switch and Skyrim, but you get the idea. Here are the highs and lows of the game. Posted Jun 17, 2018 by Garrett Fuller

It is the age of the Loot Box. In their simplest form they are miniature RNG loot containers, but in their most devious form they are Pay to Play slot machines with deceiving rewards. Guild Wars 2 has implemented these loot boxes in the form of Black Lion Chests for a very long time, and with loot boxes under the microscope both by gamers and governments alike, is it time that we say goodbye to Black Lion Chests for good?

Despite huge announcements from every studio this year at E3, all of the news was focused around West Hall Room 512. CD Projekt Red’s next in-depth RPG takes to the streets in a dark future. Cyberpunk 2077 was shown in a fifty-minute demo which kept everyone in awe by its scope, adaptability, and amazing visuals which bring a new level to the first person and RPG genre. We jokingly referred to it as Grand Theft Blade Runner, but it is much more than that. Posted Jun 14, 2018 by Garrett Fuller
