Neverwinter MMO Review – No More Lonely Nights
So as I mentioned in Friday’s post, I spent this weekend blasting through the Neverwinter MMO beta. I’d like to thank Andrew for hooking me up with access to the Press beta and my better half for understanding that this weekend I would be here in body only. Over the course of the weekend I […]
Chris Avellone may join Torment: Tides of Numenera
Chris Avellone was lead designer on Planescape: Torment. He may now join Torment: Tides of Numenera if the Kickstarter can break $3.5m. As of posting the project has raised $2,949,768 from 53,956 backers. That’s a huge total and smashes the $900,000 asking price. However, the $3.5m will be a tough ask; there are 13 days […]
Chronicles of Mystara combines two old school D&D scrollers
At PAX East Capcom announced Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara. Is this anything new? Not at all. This is very old. Chronicles of Mystara combine two ancient scroller beat’em ups from the Golden Axe era. In this case we’re talking about Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom and Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara. […]
Screenshots from the Neverwinter MMO Beta
So our fearless leader asked me if I wanted to cover the new Neverwinter MMO. As a long-time enjoyer of MMOs, D&D and the Neverwinter Nights games in particular, I said “hell yes!”. I’m about an hour in at the moment and almost level 5 with my first character, Baran Bitterblade, Half-Orc Great Weapon Fighter. […]

Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter MMO trailers
Game studios and developers Perfect World and Cryptic Studios have released two video trailers to showcase more of Faerûn. The first video looks the city-state of Neverwinter, the jewel of the north, from Silverymoon, to the docks of Luskan and the streets of Waterdeep. This is a realm that many gamers will know well as […]
Games Workshop and Slitherine partner for new Warhammer 40K game
We’ve seen the news that Games Workshop is working with Zattikka for a Warhammer 40K Titans game and that words like “social” and “free to play” are being used to describe it. Now we learn that Games Workshop has another partnership with another games maker to do another Warhammer 40K game. This time around the […]
An apology for The Complete Book of Elves?
The Kickstarter for Torment: Tides of Numenera is still pulling in the funds. They made a promise that designer Colin McComb would apologise for The Complete Book of Elves if they crossed the $2.5 million stretch goal. I think this is a harsh thing to ask any author or game designer to do. However, some […]
League of Legends: Fiddlesticks cosplay
This is top class cosplay. Look at the feet. Is that stilts? Perhaps so… but they’re at an angle. I can only speculate how hard it would be to balance on those. The character is Fiddlesticks from the League of Legends. He appeared after a summoning ritual gone wrong nearly twenty years ago in the […]
