One Shots: Behind the scenes

Do you know what today is? No? Well, I'll tell you -- it's One Shots number 1000 since we started writing these three years ago! Personally, I love writing these because every day I get to open up our mailbox, look through all the great screenshots and stories from all over the MMO community that come in to us, and pick one to post. Today, I thought it would be fun to share another story from behind the scenes here at Massively, courtesy of our very own Jef Reahard, news writer and resident Age of Conan columnist.

"Figured I'd send in this shot of my Age of Conan assassin in a bit of peril. Sharp-eyed Hyborians can see the Iron Tower as well as King Conan's castle in the background, and if you squint really hard, you can make out the walkway that Aquilonian newbs fresh off the boat from Tortage first experience upon zoning into the huge city. Funcom has added quite a bit of explorable area since I played at release, including this nifty new section of Tarantia called, appropriately enough, Tarantia Commons. It makes the city feel much larger, and much more alive, than I remember.

As for my for the fate of my assassin, well, let's just say that he did his best Richard Kimble impersonation. Whether he lived, well, that's a story for another role-play event."

Would you like to be part of the next 1000 One Shots here on Massively? We think your screenshots would be a great addition to our ongoing archive of images and stories from around the MMOverse. However, you have to send them in to us to take part! Just email them to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name, the name of the game, and a description of what we're seeing. It could wind up being the next one featured here.
