One Shots: Do you have a few moments to talk about Jediism?

Here’s a player housing pro-tip that is useful when striking up a settlement in a risky location: Make a door. A big door. A big door with a lock and that little robot gatekeeper from Return of the Jedi who was rude to C3P0. Because if you don’t, you’re going to find that the locals are going to solicit every chance they get.

“Being alone at night on Talus in Star Wars Galaxies Legends is peaceful,” said Toy Clown. “Being alone to find you have a visitor when you step out of the house isn’t!”

You know what would have helped with that situation? Door.

Only in fantasy MMOs can you go around dressed like its Mardi Gras and fit right in with everyone else. I mean, I wish I could wear giant rabbit heads and metal armor suits without triggering alarm among local CVS shoppers, but it is sadly not to be.

JonBuck gave us this FFXIV screenie of a steel rabbit in Eulmore. What’s up, doc?

Ryuen began with this Douglas Adams quote: “‘Space is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space.’ And, in fact, it’s so mind-boggling it blew my head off in Elite Dangerous.”

“Archet is small and Lord of the Rings Online is old,” Minimalistway noted, “Still I find this game can be beautiful. “In this screenshot is a Hobbit hunter starting his big adventure.”

Lucky Jinx took me up on last week’s screenshot challenge to show a “lonely” setting, saying, “Netherstorm in World of Warcraft has always had that depressing feeling of loneliness. Hated questing there, hated going back for this shot, but it was something I instantly thought of when I read the weekly challenge.”

What’s your favorite color? This week’s screenshot challenge is pretty easy: Share an MMO screencap featuring a color you like and tell us about it!
