2025/10/05

Earlier this month I wrote about the upcoming MMO expansions that hold my interest, although that list is constantly in flux (I think I’d put New World’s Nighthaven in there as of the writing of this). So it seems like a good idea to provide a companion piece regarding the top eight in-development MMORPG projects […]

We’ll go ahead and call this the “Amazon Games MMORPG News Bundle of Fluff”: Both New World and Throne and Liberty have thrown out a couple of small and ultimately puffy little pieces as both games move their way into their most recent update. First off is a big ol’ juicy lore dump from New […]

As our MMO vets from the ’90s like to joke around here, if you long for the days before guides were online for MMORPGs, you are longing for days that did not exist. What has changed is that back in the day you would have to bookmark about seven different sites that all had some […]

2025/10/05

“How was your work day, sweetie?” ask followers of the still-developing superhero MMORPG City of Titans. “Monotonous, but good,” replies Missing Worlds Media in its latest quarterly progress report, which is a bit disheartening to hear but still at least good to know that some progress was being made, even if it involved work that […]

If you are among the people who’ve ever contacted Discord’s customer support service, then you’re going to want to keep a very close eye on your email inbox. That’s because the messaging app was subject to a security breach involving an “unauthorized party” breaking into a third-party customer service provider and managing to yoink some […]

2025/10/04

Although she can truly stop at anytime, Massively OP’s MJ will be diving into more Planet Crafter. Really, she can! It’s just that now that oxygen is abundant, she is no longer restricted when exploring, which means she can head anywhere and poke through any ships without having to dash back out to the vehicle […]

2025/10/04

Alongside the recent news that Lord of the Rings Online’s next expansion will be Kingdoms of Harad also came word that the MMO will be raising the level cap from 150 to 160. Considering the snit fit that some players had last year when the cap stayed the same for Legacy of Morgoth, you’d think […]

One of the strange and irritating side dramas in the whole “Daybreak is suing an EverQuest emulator” narrative is the one about what happened to the classic EQ community’s subreddit.

2025/10/04

Recently we learned that Lord of the Rings Online’s upcoming expansion will be nearly fully voiced, which is a big step forward (typically, the MMO only voices the first line of most quests). I’m excited to literally hear that because voice acting draws me into MMORPGs. Well, I should amend that to say good voice acting […]

It’s official, Pax Dei is tired of early access! Or the developers feel like enough progress has been made to justify moving from early access into launch on October 16th. Or both! The point is that the launch day has been revealed, and it’s just a couple of weeks away. Save the date! Meanwhile, Reaper Actual is […]

There is literally no video game out now or coming in the future that’s worth throwing your life away for, and that’s the regrettable lesson that one teenager is learning. Nineteen-year-old Jayden Griffin has pleaded guilty to threatening to kill the developers of Fortnite and is now facing federal prison time. Court documents show that […]

The next version update for Final Fantasy XI is going to make a lot of the game a bit easier to move through.
