Starting three new characters in FFXIV seemed like a good idea at the time….
When I left Final Fantasy XIV over the summer, though I had a mostly fine time with the game, I wasn’t sure when or even if I’d get back to it. At the time, I was keen on getting some final use out of my Fallout 76 sub, and once that was done, I really…
Ranking my Free-to-Play Free-for-All
When I decided to see what free-to-play console games might work in my household for future fun times, I didn’t intend for the venture to become “a thing.” Now, with six new games proverbially under my belt, it seems like deciding which ones were the “winners,” is only the right and fair thing to do….
To (Not Quite) Infinity and Beyond in Star Trek Online
When I started out with my summertime free-to-play MMORPG free-for-all, there were five games on my list: DC Universe Online, TERA, Skyforge, Phantasy Star Online 2 NG, and not Final Fantasy XIV, but rather Star Trek Online. After the FFXIV diversion, there was only one thing left to do, and that was to give Star…
Final Fantasy XIV, Because Free is Free!
Final Fantasy XIV wasn’t supposed to be part of my ongoing effort to try out free MMORPGs. It had been on my mind, because it’s nearly inescapable when reading about such games these days. It’s held in high regard as a cream-of-the-crop title, one of the best and most populated MMOs around. Heck, even in…
Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis Provides Slick Gameplay in a Hollow Shell
Furthering my efforts to try out free MMORPGs, I recently dove into another of my listed to-try titles – Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis. As I understood about what I had read of the game, New Genesis, released in 2021, was an upgraded and graphically-enhanced version of 2012’s Phantasy Star Online 2. Having only…
Skyforge was Fine but Forgettable
In my ongoing quest to try out various free multiplayer games, I had heard of, even if only slightly, all the games on my list except one. Skyforge. Granted, I hadn’t gone out to research every MMO ever made, so maybe me being in the dark about this title was to be expected. I watched…
Who in their right mind starts playing a “dead” game?
After having a so-so time playing DC Universe Online, my search for easy-going, console-based multiplayer/MMORPG ventures continued. I had made a short list of possibilities, and after a quick round of eenie, meenie, miny, moe, I ended up at another decades-old game, TERA. I knew nothing about the game save for the fact that I…
First (and Maybe Last) Impressions of DC Universe Online
In my household’s ongoing quest to find enjoyable multiplayer outings, we’ve found plenty of fodder. But lately, continued interest on both our parts has taken a dive. It Takes Two was a great thing, but not one to revisit; Bethesda’s offerings of ESO and Fallout 76 haven’t drawn either of us in lately (despite my…
Picking up where you left off, or starting over?
It was during a small lull recently that I decided to pop back into Neverwinter, a game that garnered my full attention between the turn of 2018 and 2019. I still followed the game’s happenings somewhat regularly and was aware that it had received a handful of updates since I had last played it. So…
