Every time Grinding Gear games puts out a new update or expansion for Path of Exile – and they come like clockwork – it creates a conundrum for me. Each new league is invariably cool and I can’t wait to play it, but I also am never finished playing the old one! I am all for frequent updates, but as a more casual player I can never get enough of the cool content before it’s gone. If you are like me, then this next expansion is custom-made just for you! On December 7th, Path of Exile launches Betrayal, its largest expansion in a while. Well, that makes sense when it is incorporating the last three expansions into it! In fact, it is actually the culmination of a year-long arc that GGG has been slowly introducing to players. How exactly is this mega merge going to work? I sat down with Producer Chris Wilson to discuss the ins and outs of Betrayal, from its multi-expansion twist to its unique story to the new skills and items. And of course, there’s a new … [Read more...] about Path of Exile’s December Betrayal expansion brings back Bestiary, Incursion, and Delve with proper housing to boot

A game as large and old and multifaceted as RuneScape is bound to collect some bad seeds over time, and as we’ve seen repeatedly in the past, it’s not just players who cause a scene but streamers too. MMO gamers will recall that this past autumn, Jagex had to investigate and terminate its working relationship with multiple content creators and streamers accused of sexual harassment at RuneFest. This weekend, it’s had to disavow yet another streamer, this one who during his stream directed a known-suicidal player to kill herself. Jagex brought out the banhammer straightaway, citing its zero-tolerance policy. “This morning we became aware that over the weekend a RuneScape player had live streamed himself calling a vulnerable individual who had admitted they were having suicidal thoughts, telling that person to kill themselves. The RuneScape player is not someone with whom Jagex has – or ever had – a business relationship but given the incredibly … [Read more...] about RuneScape boots player who streamed himself bullying a suicidal gamer

Elsword, the anime side-scrolling MMO from KOG Games began to completely reboot its characters last month. The results are massive changes to each character and job in the MMO, an ambitious undertaking from the small team in charge of the title.  advertisement  Since the beginning of July, Elsword has slowly been rebooting each character in the game - there are 13 total to get through. Recently they just released the third installment of the RE:BOOT, releasing changes to Aisha, Raven, Add, and Laby. We had the chance to talk about the RE:BOOT as well as Elsword as a whole last week with GM Rush and GM Moshup.A bit of background: Elsword is centered around a crystal, the El, which all of the world derives its life energy from. Magic is also derived from the El. The El itself fractures, causing a lot of chaos in the world. Everything in Elsword is tied to the El itself. How and what caused the fracture is what starts the "El Search Party," lead by … [Read more...] about Elsword’s Character RE:BOOT Is As Ambitious As It Is Massive
