I love how in the Star Trek universe, the universal consensus on what makes for an ideal vacation spot is a planet that looks a lot like Miami Beach. I mean, there’s a whole galaxy out there, people! Is it possible that there are any slightly more exciting, exotic, and thrilling vacation destinations than Jimmy Buffet’s island paradise?
Junior Ensign JonBuck doesn’t think so: “In Star Trek Online, there’s only one good place for vacations: Risa!”
Yes, I want to go to the place where humanoid cats are getting jiggy with it while wearing a two-piece. Wait, I thought cats don’t like water?
Or if you want a slightly darker and more demonic destination, why not swing over to Secret World Legends and traumatize your children for life?
That’s what Hirku did: “See kids? I told you Atlantic Island Park would be more fun than Disney World and—ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGHHHHHH!”
I would not trust this ride, for the record.
“It has been written that human vacation habits are a product of their evolutionary past,” lectured Arkady. “We prefer to go to the hot savannas and seashores that we came from. If you would like to visit a land different from yours then go to Guild Wars 2’s Ascalon — the land that was yours.
It’s where they’re building Death Star III, don’t you know.
I think all of our collective mouths dropped open at the detail of this Black Desert pic.
“My Lahn caught in a zen moment near the base of the waterfall across from the sorcerer training ground of Tarif, Mediah,” said Toy Clown. “A perfect place to holiday if you don’t mind magic being flung around!”
Dak doesn’t mind getting suited up for his Warframe vacations, especially if he gets to blast everything there to smithereens: “Let’s be honest, that’s a damn pretty planet that humanity screwed over. The overgrowth of the industrial sections are just great — just avoid the tentacles. Or don’t, I’m not your dad.”
I… I thought the DNA test proved otherwise. Don’t leave me, daddy!
Every once in a while I like to encourage us all to stage a fashion show in the comments, so let’s do that this week! Show off your current favorite MMORPG ensemble and tell us how you put it together!
Every week, One Shots shines a spotlight on the best community screenshots from your MMO adventures. If you have a great pic to share, email it to justin@massivelyop.com with the subject “One Shots.” Make sure that the picture is over 880px wide and comes with a description or story!
