Massively Overpowered

If you've ever wanted to watch singer/model/actress Sophie Monk toodle around Tamriel in some cosplay armor, well, the latest Elder Scrolls Online video is for you. There's a wee bit of gameplay footage in there, too, as well as some attempts at humor. See for yourself after the cut! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYQLhqooh0E Source: YouTube

Don't look now, but the federal government is riding to rescue people who willingly donated their money to a Kickstarter campaign. In its "first case involving crowdfunding," the Federal Trade Commission has taken legal action against a would-be board game producer who allegedly bilked backers out of more than $122,000. Developer Erik Chevalier announced the cancellation of his The Doom That Came...

Prepare your wallets to go broke and your libraries to fill to the brim with games that you'll never have time to play, for Steam's summer sale is upon us once again! As part of Steam's annual extravaganza, the platform is selling many MMOs and packages at a discount: H1Z1 early access is 25% off at $15 (daily deal too) Shadowrun Chronicles:...

The latest Darkfall dev forum post is... well, I don't what it is other than an announcement about an announcement. Aventurine community manager Icy Wave says that players will see "an official letter from our CEO tomorrow." He goes on to mention that the firm considers a management letter a more appropriate way of delivering the news than a forum post, though he...

Lifetime and veteran subscribers for Star Trek Online have long had access to a special ship that shows off their elite status. Unfortunately, the game's most recent patch has left that ship a bit less elite; you can upgrade your Heavy Destroyer, but it's still just a Tier 5 ship instead of a Tier 6. So it's good news...

In all of the Heart of Thorns hoopla and specializations diaries, did you forget that guild halls will also be arriving in Guild Wars 2 later this year? We might have too. That's OK, because ArenaNet will be on hand to remind us of the guild housing feature when it unveils it at E3 next week. There, the studio will...

And yet if you look within the field of mobile free-to-play titles, it breaks a lot of the "accepted" rules about how you have to monetize these titles. An article on Gamasutra takes the time to analyze how its different assumptions about progression and rewards produce...

If Overwatch were a tabletop RPG, Reinhardt is the guy who didn't bother listening to the setting information and just made a knight with a huge hammer. Still, it's hard not to like a guy who decided to just build a huge suit of power armor and act like a modern-day knight while everyone else is running around with...

Hi. My name is MJ. And I like The Secret World's combat. There, I admitted it. And trust me, I am fully aware that it is not the popular prevailing attitude of TSW comment posters or even the most dedicated fans. The combat is the most-complained-about thing in relation to the game, even by those who love it. You can't...

If you want total and absolute balance for one-on-one classes in Crowfall, you will be disappointed. That's the first answer in the new question and answer video with the development team, but it has more to it than that. The goal when designing the game's classes is to give each one an area where it shines and several other...
