| General: Dying Light First Impressions Posted: 29 Jan 2015 01:43 PM PST you're forgiven if your response was, "wait, that zombie game?" Even though the marketing did an terrible job of explaining the RPG side of Dying Light, I've spent a few hours with the game and have no reservations: Dying Light has the reanimated heart of a roleplaying game. Purists may not be happy, but if can wrap your head around first-person, zombie smashing, breakneck parkour with a dash of survival, and deep character progression, you have a first-of-its-kind RPG.     |
| Warhammer 40.000: Eternal Crusade: Miguel Caron Leaving Behaviour Interactive Posted: 30 Jan 2015 01:42 PM PST During today's Warhammer 40k: Eternal Crusade Twitch stream, it was announced that Miguel Caron will be leaving Behaviour Interactive. Nathan Richardsson will be taking over as the Studio Head. At this point, we do not know what is next for Miguel, but we wish him all the best.   |
| Trove: Pirates Be Willin' to Trade Posted: 30 Jan 2015 01:09 PM PST Pirates from the Treasure Isles are making their way to the shores of Trove and have lots of booty to trade with players. The news came as part of the latest patch notes along with a subtle, but important, name change where "pets" now become "allies".   |
| Blackguards 2: Waging a Campaign to Rule the World Posted: 29 Jan 2015 03:54 PM PST Blackguards 2 is the sequel to 2013's strategy role playing game Blackguards by Daedalic Entertainment. At the beginning of Blackguards you will find yourself at the bottom of a dungeon and at the edge of your sanity with your only companions a jailer who hates you and spiders that want to eat you. From these humble beginnings you will wage a campaign to rule the world.   |
| General: Massively.com is Closing, Officially Posted: 30 Jan 2015 11:40 AM PST This is not something we want to write, even though Massively is our closest competitor. The venerable MMO news and opinion site is being shutter down in coming weeks as a part of parent company AOL's restructuring.   |
| Gigantic: PAX South 2015: One Gigantic Interview Posted: 29 Jan 2015 01:33 PM PST Of all the new games I tried at PAX South, my favorite had to be Gigantic, Motiga's arena battler, with its colorful and diverse cast of characters and smooth, accessible gameplay. After a couple of games, in which I performed surprisingly well (I'm as surprised as you are) I had the chance to sit down with Joe Pikop, Gigantic's Lead Character Artist and talk about how the game looks and plays.   |
| Posted: 30 Jan 2015 09:18 AM PST The WildStar site has been updated with a new blog post that details forthcoming changes to the game's PvP. Players can expect to see daily, weekly and random PvP events. The team also has plans to add same-faction battlegrounds, PvP contracts, new gear, and prestige purchase power. Lastly, before the end of the year, PvP Season 2 will kick off.   |
| Guild Wars 2: Unpacking the Heart of Thorns Announcement Posted: 29 Jan 2015 01:25 PM PST We've been waiting a good long while for any peep about a full-fledged expansion for Guild Wars 2. ArenaNet's flagship has seen a host of Living World updates, gameplay and feature additions, and balance tweaks, but the promise of a canonical expansion has been elusive. Just last month, I wrote about some alternatives to GW2's Living World, with an expansion being the obvious choice to drive the post-launch game forward and create a new revenue stream.   |
| General: Credible Blizzard Rumors Flying Rampant Posted: 30 Jan 2015 07:57 AM PST According to FirstAdopter, several fairly credible rumors are out there about Blizzard's various IPs. The column states that Hearthstone numbers are 'off the charts', the revenue model for Overwatch is still up in the air, the next Starcraft II expansion is ready for deployment and, most interestingly, projections for the success of Heroes of the Storm are being lowered.   |
