As the end of the summer starts to roll around, large content launches and expansion announcements start to gear up for MMOs, just as we see this August. This month for MMO Co-Opportunities we take a look at Living World Season 3 starting up for Guild Wars 2, a large content-focused DLC and update hitting Elder Scrolls Online, and a major expansion...
For this installment of MMO Co-opportunities, we'll be looking at the co-opportunities of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns (henceforth, HoT). HoT is the first expansion to Guild Wars 2 (GW2). While GW2 is now a free-to-play game, players must purchase HoT to access much of the content it provides. The additions and changes it adds to the game...
The biggest news for MMOs for the past couple of weeks has arguably surrounded Guild Wars 2 and World of Warcraft. As such, news about those two titles are what we’re going to be focusing on in this month’s issue of MMO Co-Opportunities!...

Last month, MMO Co-Opportunities featured part 1 of a hands-on preview of the upcoming expansion for Guild Wars 2, Heart of Thorns. In it, I gave some impressions of the new profession (the Revenant), one of the new elite specializations for the game (the Dragonhunter for the Guardian), and some thoughts of the general feel of the new zone. This mo...
So, the core version of Guild Wars 2 is now, as ArenaNet puts it, Play for Free. That's the good kind of free that really means free, not the kind of free that involves microtransactions for everything from equipping weapons to in-game sneezing. You can download the client and start playing the core version of Guild Wars 2 right away. Or tomorrow, or whenever you feel like it, really. It's free, baby!
This month for MMO Co-Opportunities, we’ll be previewing the Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns expansion. Contained within will be my preliminary impressions of the expansion, based on my experience during the first beta weekend....
Summer’s officially here. That means sun, surf, and MMOs, right? For this issue of MMO Co-Opportunities, we have a preview of the new Warlock class for Dungeons & Dragons Online, information on a newly announced playstyle for Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns’ Revenant profession, and the reveal of Wildstar going free to play in Fall 20...
Summer is definitely on its way, and we all know what that means: updates for existing MMOs and expansion news. In a time where new MMO production is certainly tapering off, many current MMOs are bringing out the big guns to try to entice former players back. This month, we’re looking at new and updates for TERA, Wildstar, and the Guild Wars ...
A couple of weekends ago at PAX East 2015, I had a private demo and interview for the recently announced Guild Wars 2 expansion, Heart of Thorns. What I saw and what the developers told me about the expansion is the focus of this month’s MMO Co-Opportunities: a GW2: Heart of Thorns Preview, if you will....
It's an action packed month of single player reviews. The game that almost never was is finally reviewed in Duke Nukem Forever. Want more? How about inFamous 2, LA Noire, Witcher 2, Red Johnson's Chronicles, Front Mission Evolved, and Thor. Summer drought my butt.
