Betawatch: Bless Unleashed is, well, unleashed

Blessed not be.

Better luck this time, Bless Unleashed! We had a giveaway for your proper launch, which was yesterday, and we’re really hoping you get your stuff together this time around. Please, do well instead of turning into the next perpetual Hellgate: London. Please.

The remainder of this week’s beta news is, in fact, notably leashed. So let’s get right on it.

And with that, we bid adieu to betas… but only a temporary adieu, just for one week. You know, like most weekly columns. We do have a list of things in testing just past the break if you’d like to take a peek at it, and maybe let us know if something jumped test phases without us noticing. Keep calm and test games.

As always, we consider an MMO to be in open testing if it features free, public signups and will server wipe prior to launch. An MMO is marked in closed testing if it’s running a private test phase that cannot freely be accessed by the general public; it’s usually under NDA as well. Early access and crowdfunded MMOs whose tests we deem legitimate will be included. So-called “open beta” soft-launch MMOs with cash shops, no sign of launch in the west, or limited interest for our readers will not be listed; we also do not list expansions, with occasional exceptions.

Yes, MMO gamers, you too can perform the unpaid quality-control work otherwise known as game testing!
