“Looks like it’s that time of year again!” says Ryuen.
And so it is. The Halloween season has come upon us and it is inescapable. You can try to hide in a cave or bury yourself in a mountain of theorycrafting, but before you know it, you’ll be trick or treating in MMORPGs with the rest of us.
And I say, why fight it when you can ride it? Sure, wearing a pumpkin on your head and driving a bike powered by 85% gasoline and 15% souls of the damned might not be street legal, but trust me, no cop is going to stop you. Just ask Ryuen… if you can catch up to him in Secret World Legends.
Ironweakness brings his own Halloween flavoring from RIFT: “Here is my Mage, a class I’m revisiting in preparation for the new Mystic Archer soul release. However in this shot I’m using the Necromancer soul and wearing an armor set that has Aldorf the Dwarf looking a lot like his revenant pet.”
“To quote Zhuangzi: Am I a Rhino warframe that dreampt I was a butterfly, or am I a butterfly dreaming I am a Rhino warframe?” asks Major Glitch.
I think if you’re packing that much armor and firepower in Warframe, you can be whatever you want to be, Major. Nobody’s going to give you any snark about the pink color scheme, either.
“None of the MMOs I play currently have started Halloween events yet, so I dug through pictures of Black Desert from last year at this time and pulled one out,” wrote Toy Clown. “I call this one Kzarka’s Doll. The RP community was having Halloween events before we had the lore, props or costumes of the event, so we winged it! Here I made use of face paints and heavy application of black and pale to create a creepy doll-like costume.”
“This sums up everything about World of Warcraft’s Monk class that made it the only choice for me: martial arts, duel-wielding, mystical powers, ancient fortresses hidden away among snowy peaks, and a whole lot of pandas,” posted Hirku.
You’re tempting me to play one of these, Hirky!
Sometimes we get a cool costume, a toy, a mount, or some other reward that we are quite excited to show to the rest of the class. For this week’s screenshot challenge, show us some acquisition you got lately in an MMO that makes you happy!
