Massively Overpowered

Curious what's up with Guild Wars 2's promised plans to restore the game's personal story to full working order, complete with a soloable final mission? You and many, many other players, apparently. ArenaNet Lead Writer Bobby Stein took to the forums to say that it's being worked on but couldn't say when it will happen: "All major assets for the...

You've already seen gameplay footage for four of Overwatch's fighters (Zenyatta, Mercy, McCree, and Hanzo) from Blizzard's upcoming team-based shooter. Now witness Tracer in action! With a youthful exuberance and a British accent, this dual-wielding hero giggles occasionally as she mows her enemies down with her pistols. Don't believe us? Check out her moves for yourself in the preview video...

Last winter I pre-ordered that Mercenary Edition pack for Elite: Dangerous through Frontier's online store. While I enjoyed playing the space sim at the time, I haven't played it much since then because a) other games and b) I've been waiting for the devs to make good on their promise to deliver Steam keys to people who have already purchased...

The game had some really terrible habits that I discussed back on Massively-that-was (which I don't want to link simply because, you know, that Frankengadget thing ain't us), and it has watched its market share decrease to...

For a writer on a multi-MMORPG news site, following pretty much every online game's Twitter feed comes with the territory. It's always interesting to me to see what "personalities" each feed develops over time, from the shy guy who posts only once a month to the toddler-esque accounts that repeat the same information every hour on the hour so that you can't...

In the ongoing, neverending sandbox-vs.-themepark MMO debate, the folks on the side of sandboxes want one thing: more. Actually they want a lot more. They want more to do, more to see, more to experience. They aren't content with linear, level-based, content-poor design tracks scrambling to be the next floundering WoW-killer. They definitely want more than just another online murder simulator. They...

Do you like to explore stuff? You know, wander off into the wild blue yonder in zones and just see what you can see? The Elder Scrolls Online will let you do that. Why, it has a new video out just today to shine more of a light on the exploration options available in the game. If you're a...

Explorers rejoice! On June 4th, those who revel in the non-combat aspects of MMOs will be able to meander aimlessly through the wilds of Wander when it launches on Steam and on the PlayStation 4 in Europe and Asia.
