With the recent switchover to a new comment system and the very real fear that we might lose previous comments (including, alas, your excellent One Shots submissions), I proactively saved several from last week to use for this column. So with this foundation, let us refill our comments section will wild, bold, and always-interesting screenshots!
Zulika Mi Nam kicks off today’s tour with an odd tribute to Asheron’s Call: “Last night while running around the in great north of Dereth, I was taking a look at houses each time I would come across a neighborhood. Some were still being leased, but most were abandoned. Of those abandoned some owners had stripped them of all belongings, while others still had left wall hangings and such left behind. Then I came across this miniature cow disco that someone could not bring up the courage to dismantle for sake of these miniature cows that only live for the dance.”
They’re dancing in bovine heaven now. A minute of silence for the late, great cows of Asheron’s Call.
We all know that there’s this weird fascination that MMO developers have with shoving fireworks into the game, especially for anniversary rewards. It might be a little eye-rollingly rampant, but there’s a part of me that still loves a good light show even so.
Reader ThunderJackson caught this spectacle on camera in Black Desert and had to share. I love how beautiful it looks hanging over the small village below.
If you’re going to party, why not boogie down with the greatest dancers that the afterlife has to offer (cows aside)? TBPlayer2112 bridged the gap in Elder Scrolls Online between the living and the deceased in this rollicking shot.
Last week I asked readers to submit pictures of their favorite tech in MMOs, and DigitalQ went straight to Star Wars: The Old Republic for this high-voltage tableau.
“Here is a piece of tech I remember being quite nervous to mess with as it held Khem,” DigitalQ wrote. “Sometimes I think I should have left his grumpy butt there.”
What about a high-tech outfit instead? Nosz put together this applause-worthy ensemble in Guild Wars 2: “Nothing beats a multipurpose hammer-wielding steampunk Engineer!”
In honor of our fallen comments, this week’s screenshot challenge is to revisit your picture folders and pull out some of your past favorite pictures to (re)share with the crowd!
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!
