Previously on MV TV: The week of March 31st
What a week, huh? We had all sorts of great livestreaming for you to enjoy. If you missed some of the cool things we put on live during the week, no worry! Just check back here every week and you'll be able to recap many of the best moments from our week of live video games. Each week is something new, and this week is no different. We've got quite the variety!
This week, we have Mike jamming on some EVE Online and then jumping into RIFT for horrible magical adventures. Richie ventured into the Mists of Pandaria beta for World of Warcraft to show off cute, cuddly, and furry butts while wielding a weapon of destruction! I had to check out some of the good and bad points about Second Life's Linden Homes, free structures that come with any premium account; I also jumped into Luvinia Online to participate in a huge PvP event, and let me just give you two words to entice you to watch: giant chickens. Blake took some time to shoot things in Global Agenda, and finally, we had MJ taking on some Bristlebane quests in EverQuest II, following it up by attacking stuff all over Aion! Check us out!
This week on the EVE stream, Mike sparked a minor controversy by asking viewers which ship would be best for factional warfare, EVE's introductory PvP questline. After some hotly debated ship stats, Mike started his character along the path toward a slow but powerful Drake... oh, and he blew up tons of stupid NPC pirates along the way.
Once again, Mike managed to get himself killed by not paying attention to his character in combat. But he did manage to sort out his Mage's rotation and ventured into one of RIFT's capital cities. Tune in to see how DoTs can change your RIFT experience as well as how not to close a rift without dying. Embarrassingly.
This week, Richie continued exploring the Mists of Pandaria beta test with his trusty Pandaren Monk, Flamingo. Together they were tasked with talking to the land to find out what ails it, and by land, we mean the Wandering Isle, and by the Wandering Isle, we mean a gigantic sea turtle. There's no better way for three pandas to parley with an oversized reptile than to soar past its head in a hot air balloon. It's as awesome as it sounds.
I decided to take a look at the famous (or infamous) Linden Homes in Second Life this week. There has been a lot of controversy about the game's pre-fabricated homes, which do not leave much room for growth or creative building, but I tend to think that they are a great introduction to people who are new to the game or who do not want to spend much money on acquiring a piece of land. They are also a great way for new players to see whether they are the types who would enjoy land or home-ownership in the first place. So check out this stream to see what you think. Take your time and you might just wind up with a nice little place to call your own!
I don't regret streaming this live Luvinia Online PvP event one bit. I was whisked away to a private area where I, along with many other players, was commanded to attack a central GM and his minions, aka a group of giant chickens! It was murder and mayhem, and a few temperatures rose, but overall it was so much fun and shows just how in-depth Luvinia can be. Check it out if crazy PvP interests you.
Blake was back to his healing ways in Lunchtime Livecast #15 on Sunday. If you consider that he took a month off from healing to level up a Robotic, things didn't go too badly! Check out all the free-to-play sci-fi action of Global Agenda in this week's stream.
Getting in the spirit of Bristlebane, MJ took on a few tasks to take in the festivities. Ever been given a quest to kill 10 rats? No? Neither had we. Really. So it was totally and completely surprising when MJ had to do just that to appease a slightly nutty Gigglegibber in EverQuest II. Then she got pranked by the The Grand Prankster himself. No matter; she ended up with a spiffy deck of cards for her house and horse with color-identity issues. Don't believe us? Check it out for yourself!
Thwarted once again in her grand Abyss schemes, MJ wasn't able to show off an Aion siege (curse those erroneous schedules!), but she was able to share some of the sights of Asmodae, start on a few repeatable XP buffets quests, and share some excitement for the upcoming 3.0 release. Miss the tour the first time? Go ahead and watch for another run-through.
Did you miss Massively TV last week? Are you too busy to dig through a week's worth of video to get to the highlights? Never fear! We've done the work for you right here in Previously on MV TV, a roundup of epic battles, tragic deaths, and juicy outtakes from last week's livestreams.
