$20 Says Darkfall “Relaunch” Is Free To Play

What Happened This Week: 4/24-4/30 Edition


Welcome to the second episode of Week In Review (or whatever I’m calling it this week), your look at some stories that didn’t make MMO Fallout headlines for one reason or another. 1.

A few days ago, I wrote about how Sony was reactivating inactive Everquest accounts until the 21st of the month in lieu of the time locked progression server, the aptly named Fippy Darkpaw, renowned for his ability to run headlong into guards far higher than his own level, assuredly the first Leroy Jenkins before Leroy was Leroy. … Continue reading “Everquest: Second Progression Server Tomorrow”

Everquest Reactivation Campaign


Damn you, Sony! With the impending release of the Everquest progression server, people like myself are no doubt trying their hardest not to resubscribe just to try the game out one more time, a feat that (at least I am finding) is proving hard to keep up.

2010: A Retrospective, Answered Questions


2010, to me, was a bit like entering a shaved watermelon contest. I love watermelon, and I enjoy contests, and there isn’t much I won’t do for the promise of a trophy and perhaps a gift certificate to Denny’s. On the other hand, a trophy for “best shaved watermelon” isn’t exactly something I would use … Continue reading “2010: A Retrospective, Answered Questions”
