Reflection perfection in The Elder Scrolls Online
“Take a picture of a picture in an MMO,” I said to you guys a couple of weeks ago, and darn it if you awesome folks didn’t come through! We have two entries from that screenshot challenge this week, starting with reader Chiara taking a look at her good looks in Lord of the Rings Online.…

Testing addons in The Elder Scrolls Online
My adventure in The Elder Scrolls Online continues this week with my Nightblade Fa’saad making his way through Stonefalls for the Ebonheart Pact. As the format of Choose My Adventure has changed slightly, the polls from the first two articles mold my journey through the rest of the month. At the end of it all, I’ll give my summary…

How do you feel about press-only beta coverage?
Here’s a thing that happens sometimes: A high-budget MMO has a tiered beta with an NDA that is lifted in parts. Sometimes those parts include early access for press, and sometimes that NDA lifts for press before anyone else. This has only happened a handful of times, and it never really works as intended. Almost everyone thinks…

Fitting into the genre or forging its own?
It’s been about nine months since I first got my hands on The Elder Scrolls Online. Since then, like many of you, I’ve been trapped on the sidelines, watching and waiting for my turn to jump into the game. This past weekend, I got my chance, but I’ve found my experience to be distressingly similar to thosedescribed…
