One Shots: Bumping into an old, old friend

    
5

When you log back into an MMORPG after a long time away, that feeling of being an intruding stranger is pretty strong. But you know what pops that tension bubble? Encountering a familiar old friend, whether virtual or real. Then you start moving toward feeling much more at home.

This is to say that Minimalistway mugged a Dwarf: “I found Gudrik, the Dwarf I met when I logged into RuneScape first time seven years ago. After the tutorial, I removed the game,  but now that I’m back, the tutorial zone is different and the original island is invaded by dark forces. He gave me a set of weapons and the armor I’m wearing.”

And now back to the adventures of Commander “Cody” Colin in the Void of Space! “How about this from Elite Dangerous?” Colin asked. “An ‘A’ Class star orbiting a Neutron Star just as I appeared from hyperspace.”

This is what happens when stars pass gas.

Who’s getting cozy? I’ll tell you who: Katriana! In between gardening, demolishing the bug population, and buying affection with gifts, Katriana found this sight to share: “A view of some ruins, the aqueduct I think, in Bahari Bay in Palia.”

Hikari reported some improvements to an open world survival RPG where you can dance the night away: “Big improvements to the graphics filters, settings, options, etc in Undawn with 4K and above, higher frame rates, and general improvements bring it out of the two-year-old mobile game aesthetic.”

And Vincent posted this with some heartfelt congratulations to Final Fantasy XIV: “Happy anniversary! Here is to 10 more years!”

Two roads diverged in a MOP column, and you—
You posted screenshots in the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
