First Look: Utherous

We sat down with the folks from Utherous at PAX East to have a first look at their new game. Using the Atavism MMO Creator, Thomas Timothy and his team have created a sandbox where players can build up their towns, siege other towns, or take on the local wildlife and other beings inhabiting the world of Utheria. Paired with Bionic Marine Command Online in a Steam bundle that recently got greenlit, Utherous shows a very strong sense of identity within a full-to-bursting genre.

In sandboxes, there's a lot of emphasis on playing your way. It's something we're seeing a lot lately with the number of procedurally generated games on the market. At PAX East, I had the opportunity to check out procedurally generated Windward, a sandbox game with multiple ways to live out your type of high seas fantasy, sail, battle, explore, or even play with (or against) friends.

General: There's No Shame In Playing Second Life

Posted: 10 Mar 2015 01:59 PM PDT

There

Ah, Second Life. It's still the angsty teenager of the MMO world, even though it's been around for more than a decade. My account is almost as old as the game - May of 2004 - but I definitely do not play in the world as much as I have in the past. Second Life really deserves full attention, or at least it can demand it, just like a teenager. It's also full of energy and hormones and bursting with creative ideas... just like a teenager.
