Over 1,000 People Come Together to Try to Find World of Warcraft's Latest Mount

There are a few things that can bring people together, uniting them under one banner. During times of disaster, you can always find people rushing into danger to try to save others. During more peaceful times, however, you can find all kinds of people uniting to play video games.

And that's exactly what the hunt for World of Warcraft's latest secret mount, the Lucid Nightmare, has done. According to Chadd Nervig, the Technical Game Designer for World of Warcraft, there are over twenty thousand people on the WoW Secrets Discord server, trying to solve the Lucid Nightmare secret, with over 1,000 in voice chat at the time of the tweet. That's absolutely insane.

If you are the kind of person who loves solving puzzles, head over to the WoW Secrets Discord - the first few clues of the puzzle have already been solved, but so far, no one knows just how many steps will need to be taken to solve this puzzle.

Lets hope it isn't as crazy as the old Sombra ARG...

English Version of Hyper Universe Features Censorship (Boob Size Reduction)

Hyper Universe launched into early access in North America and Europe on August 23, 2017 and players who have played the Korean version of the game noticed some differences right away. It looks like Nexon censored the English release of the game with changes to breast sizes across various heroes. I'm personally against all forms of censorship, but especially so when it involves breast size reduction.

Take a look at the changes for yourself:

Other examples of censorship / changes made to the English version of the game can be seen here:

A Nexon community admin addressed community concerns about this in a forum thread:

“In alpha, there was a pretty hot debate in a forum thread (which ended up being our longest forum thread for alpha) about how the females are presented in the game, 5 forum pages later a few people agreed that a compromise between super busty/skimpy and covering up might be for the best. This is what we are attempting to do. We want to keep the appeal of the female characters (and males for that matter!) while not offending anyone. We want to keep the artist’s integrity in-check, but make the game inviting to not only play, but watch as well.” -RazielWarmonic (Nexon Admin)

Players can circumvent these changes thanks to a guide written by a fan of the game (King Arthur). Check out his guide on how to do it

  1. First up, go grab the uncensored image pack from Dropbox and the Unity Assets Bundle Extractor.
  2. Extract the Asset Extractor and go to the HyperUniverse_Data folder. Open up the resource.assets file, and then find the file you want to replace and click on “Edit”. Load in the image you want and press “OK”.
  3. Rinse and repeat those steps for each of the censored images you want to replace.

Ashes of Creation Launches New Pax West Trailer (Featuring Combat)

Kickstarter funded subscription MMORPG Ashes of Creation launched a new gameplay trailer today which shows off some actual in-game combat. A playable pre-alpha version of the game will be available at Pax West for attendees to try. Another stage of testing "Alpha Zero" (first time hearing that term) begins on December 15, 2017.

Ashes of Creation - Pax West Pre-Alpha Tutorial

While I remain skeptical about Ashes, as well as most Kickstarter funded MMOs, I truly hope Ashes of Creation can live up to its promises. The game's node system sounds promising and Steven Sharif, the head honcho over at Intrepid Studios which develops Ashes, is a passionate MMORPG gamer. According to his own estimates the cost to build a viable build of Ashes of Creation will cost ~$30 million. The game only raised ~$3.2M through Kickstarter so it remains a mystery where the rest of the funding will come from for now.

Learn more about the game and Steven Sharif over MassivelyOP which conducted an interview with him.

Dark and Light Shows Off Guild Management Features, Administrative Basics

dark and light world

Dark and Light is still in Early Access, and may have "Mixed" reviews on Steam, but that isn't stopping Snail Games from pushing their new updates and features into Dark and Light - such as a video recently released demonstrating how players can manage their Houses - and not house houses, but Houses. The kind of Houses that other small Houses look upon and wish to be. Wait, that still didn't make much sense, did it.

The new video shows off how players can add ranks, set permissions, and even declare ware. Leaders can create special seals, to protect House houses buildings from other players, though it should be noted that those seals are from an advanced build of the game, so treat it as content that is subject to change! Another interesting thing to come out of this video is how mounts will operate. Three settings are available - communally owned, with everyone owning it. Player owned and House ridden, with one owner, but with everyone being able to ride it. Lastly, player owned, player ridden - completely private mount. Check out these features - and more! - down below.

Turbine Launching Game of Thrones Mobile Strategy Game

It's official - Turbine will be launching a Game of Thrones themed mobile strategy game called Game of Thrones: Conquest. Players take on the role of the head of their own house as they fight to claim the Iron Throne. Familiar faces such as Tyrian Lannister, Jon Snow, and Daenerys Targaryen are in the game as well. Pre-registrations are open now and from the few screenshots available the game looks a lot like every other mobile strategy game, so expect some pay 2 win elements.

I'm surprised it took 7 seasons of HBO's popular Game of Thrones seasons to air before someone launched a pay 2 win strategy game with its name. We've already seen how successful this genre can be with titles like Game of War and Mobile Strike bringing in over $800M a year, each. Machine Zone, the company behind both these strategy games even launched a highly successful re-skin of Game of War with the Final Fantasy XV franchise slapped on called Final Fantasy XV - A New Empire this year and it's already making millions. If a Final Fantasy re-skin for Game of War can be super successful, I have no doubt Game of Thrones: Conquest will be a big hit. After handing over development of Dungeons and Dragons Online / Lord of the Rings Online to Standing Stone Games, we now know what the company has been working on.
