| MMORPG DAILY DIGEST | January 29, 2015 |
 | This past weekend, several members of BioWare Austin descended upon San Antonio for PAX South in the latest Star Wars: The Old Republic Cantina Tour stop. In it, guests were treated to the usual Q&A interspersed with prizes for correctly answering trivia questions. Unusually, the event was actually held on-site at PAX and required a badge although it wasn't a part of official programming. Read more here |
 | Ever since our recent partnership with MMORPG, us YouTube-loving gamers here at TGN have noticed that a lot of MMO players have absolutely no idea what we do! Well, we think a little introduction is long overdue. Read more here |
 | Conventions are all about trying new things, and I did just that at PAX South, sampling for the first time two of the hottest new pieces of tech – software and hardware – that gamers are drooling over: Elite: Dangerous and the Oculus Rift. Read more here |
| When someone invites you up to their hotel room, unless you've been sharing drinks at the bar and developed a certain subtle understanding, it's typically a good idea to refuse. When the word "cabal" is uttered in the same proposition, a thrown glass for distraction and immediate sprint for the nearest exit would be the course of wisdom. Read more here |
| When your first game as a developer was an incredible hit like Mojang's Minecraft, this means unavoidably a hard life for whatever comes next. While it's almost impossible to live up to expectations, at least you have the benefit of the spotlight. However, you are really out of luck when at the same time one of the industry leaders decides to release a game in the same genre – which happened with Blizzard and Hearthstone.

A linear game, skills and features (blacksmith, alchemist, banker) open up as you play as well as getting spammed with items to buy every time you set foot in town – which is at log-in and at quest completion.

| In the latest post on the Crowfall site, the team introduces players to the next character class, the Stoneborn Forgemaster. High in strength but low in intellect, Forgemasters are melee specialists. In addition to the archetype class, the team also shows off the way that worlds will be individualized and feature their own rulesets. Players will be able to travel between the worlds to take part in activities as they wish rather than be 'stuck' on one server type. Read more here |
| En Masse Entertainment has announced that guilds will be able to snag a piece of the wild blue yonder when skycastles come floating into TERA: Rising on February 24th. Skycastles will be awarded to top guilds on each server for successful completion of a series of events focused on guild rewards and group content. Read more here |
