December 19, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

Over the weekend the vanilla World of Warcraft private server Elysium relaunched Nostalrius' PvE and PvP servers, but it did not go smoothly. Dear community, we are working to address the lag and login servers. However, please be aware, we are undergoing 6 concurrent DDoS attacks. — Elysium Project (@elysium_dev) December 18, 2016 Not only were some trolls messing with the [...]

Street Warriors Online Is An 8v8 PvP Fighting Game On The Corner

December 19, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

Street Warriors Online launched onto Steam recently, and it's a bit of an oddball title. It's an 8v8 PvP brawler that touts a dynamic combat system in round based battles. While I expected the charm of West Side Story what I see in the trailer is slabs of meat smacking into each other. That's alright. It is a free-to-play title [...]

Star Citizen's Holiday Stream Suffers Technical Difficulties

December 19, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

Turns out even $100 million doesn't guarantee smooth flying as evident by Star Citizen's holiday stream on Twitch: audio out-of-sync, awkward pausing, amateur transitions, just an all around production worthy of a high-school film project. There were enough technical difficulties so that the video was promptly removed from YouTube. But you can still watch the rerun on Twitch. Sorely missing from [...]

MMO Sites Can't Decide If Aeria Is Still Publishing Bless

December 18, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

Perhaps the most entertaining news today is thanks to our comrades in the MMO press-sphere, who became wrapped up in speculation as to whether or not Aeria Games is still publishing Bless in the West. It all began with a rather fun headline from 2p.com, titled "Rumor: Aeria Games Might No Longer Publish Bless in NA and EU." The site claims [...]

So You Want To Write About Games

December 27, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

This article was inspired by, what I see as, a lack of direction for people who are scratching the surface of their interest in writing about games. Sure, there are plenty of PDFs and eBook guides by industry veterans, and they are all fine but they were never the introduction I wanted. Because what those guides miss is that every [...]

The Ranger Is Furious In Riders Of Icarus' Latest Update

December 15, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

The Ranger is awake and furious in Riders of Icarus' latest update, aptly titled "Ranger's Fury." Not only is there a new class but the update adds a new area to explore: the Cloying Wastes, a rain-starved wasteland located west of Tritael Rift. You can head to the Cloying Wasted to continue your journey, but you'll have to have a [...]

Rust's Garry Newman Lays Down Some Wisdom On Reddit

December 15, 2016 Sean Sullivan Comments

Facepunch Studios founder Garry Newman, creator of one of my favorite survival games Rust, took to Reddit to lay down some hard-earned wisdom to the community: if you don't like playing Rust, stop playing it. He's addressing the culture of complaint. Rust updates, the community loves it, then they hate it—until the next update releases. My worry is that this [...]
