Last time I played, if Blizzard found out you were on a private server they used to ban your account or something at their site. Does this still happen? I've considered digging out my pre-MoP battlechest and trying some old school WoW but I don't want to screw up my account in case I go back...

The only game I've ever bothered with PVP was on WoW during Mists of Pandaria not long after I reached level 90. I started doing it mostly because I was an Achievement Hound and wanted as many as I could get before they were removed. I hated it at first but eventually I grew to enjoy some of...

Well if you ever get curious, you can get Daggerfall for free. I had to use google to find it but here's the official site for Daggerfall: I can't remember if you have to have DOSBox or if they released their own variation preconfigured for more modern computers. Have fun if you choose to try it.

To be honest, Skyrim isn't the first game to have done the "play whatever skills you want" style. Daggerfall (2nd game in The Elder Scrolls series for those unaware) was one of the earliest to have it that was successful and even they weren't the originators--that was some low budget indie game...

I do believe you meant Hearthfire for Skyrim as Hearthstone is Blizzard's World of Warcraft collectible card game. And I also liked Fable 2, 3 and the Torchlight series.

If you haven't played in awhile, they've added even more roles to the class system. Most of these are unfortunately paid content available through various packs. The newest class is the Primalist, which has quite a few popular roles out now and in about 2 weeks will have another four or five...

I'm alternating between Rift and Black Desert Online. I've had Rift for over 3 years now but just got BDO last week. It's a little diferent to get used to for some things yet it's still as addictive as any other game. I just forced myself to logout after a 9 hour stretch when I should have...

I'll agree with the others, BDO needs (or will soon need) it's own section. I'd have snuck a link to GameRebels on my Steam review of the game but I think that would have been a violation of some Valve rule. As of Thursday morning, they had reported over 450K sales of the game through Steam...

So here's one more reason for anyone deciding if they want to play: they just made the newest expansion completely free instead of paying $40USD like I did back in October of last year or $20 like most did from about May 10th until June 28th. You still have to usual paywalls where some things...

Right now I'm using TurtleBeach Recon 60P after upgrading from some piece of junk Blackweb Walmart special that cost about $20 with taxes. I'm not 100% sure I like them but couldn't find anything I liked under $50 that looked like they would last to long term gaming and audio use. I'm a...

That sounds like Seaquest to me, about the only submarine game I can remember from the 2600 days. I never enjoyed Missile Command that much but Pitfall was great. My dad got bored of doing it going left to right so he used to go backwards. He got pretty decent at making it most of the way...

I also got my start playing games on the 2600. My best friend had one and I'd go to his house to play Outlaw, Pong and Circus Atari. Eventually when my parents bought a console for us kids, I'd play River Raid for hours or we'd do Yar's Revenge contests to see who'd get the best scores. My...

My favorite Nintendo console was the SNES because of all the good rpg's at the time were on it. Sure, Sega had a few but they didn't look as cool as those from the SNES. I had tons of cartridges for both the NES and SNES; I still have both working consoles in a box somewhere in storage. I...

I just started playing Banished and Black Desert Online because I got them during the sale but I also have Rising World that I will play occasionally. RW is one of those Minecraft type games but with more realistic graphics;unfortunately they've been an Early Access Game for way too long and...

I picked up Banished and Black Desert Online last night. It took AGES for BDO to download and install, 9 hours with my dl peak at 6.3MB/s but it is a 60G file. Banished was only 200M so took minutes and I spent about 7 hours playing it. If you've ever tried The Settlers II: Veni Vidi Vici...

I agree with Scotty: Morrowind GOTY Edition blows both Oblivion and Skyrim to the deepest darkest pit. Of course if you play Oblivion with the Morrowind mod then you've got the better part of both worlds. Too bad they still haven't finished Skywind, the MW mod for Skyrim. Only way to make...

That's just it, my veteran account was on max number of toons and all were at least level 40 with 2 of them at 90--the old max during Pandaria. I know my main is still in the guild I used to be part of and that at least 3 people still play from that guild. I'm just a cheapskate waiting and...

Yes, you can grind out everything. I did leave out one minor "Con" and that's listing things on the auction house (AH) is behind a $5USD paywall. Once you get higher levels and have access to the AH to list, you can sell materials or crafted items to other players and eventually earn enough...

It's really too bad I couldn't use this because I wanted to see what they've changed since 6.0 when I last logged in but I'm not wanting to fork over for a sub if I'm not going to stay the full month. I've heard some about Timewalking and I'm not sure if I'd like it or not. I last logged out...

Right now I would have to give Rift about a 5 or 6. Basically it's your run of the mill Warcraft-style MMO but there are some differences. Pros: Rifts that spawn elemental mobs to kill for loot, notoriety, achievements and quests. Crafting rifts: same as above but offer special materials for...
