It

I've never been a fan of MOBAs. I can't roleplay in them, they aren't really known for being big on customization either. So that's two of my favorite things in games taken out from the start. I never really bothered to give them the time of day. But after I met the Dawngate development team all of that changed. I'm actually giving Dawngate a try.

Neverwinter: D&D&D

Posted: 28 Aug 2014 01:38 AM PDT

D&D&D

Last week I hopped back into Neverwinter after an extended hiatus. If you want to get up to speed you can read the column here. Even after expressing my discontent for uncleverly disguised daily quests I decided to slog through it for a week and take one for the MMORPG.com community. In some ways I was pleasantly surprised. In others it was worse than I expected.
