Choose My Adventure: Second verse, same as the first
It's been another interesting week in Vanguard, to say the least. Remember that thing I said last week about crafting and diplomacy being deep? I can now say with absolute certainty that they are so double-rainbow intensely deep that I've spent the last several days primarily working on those two skills as opposed to moving on to the next village. Indeed, attempting to finish all the quests in Sun Village has sent me back to Tentrees Farmstead (the first starter town) to pick up even more crafting and diplomacy work! Will I ever escape, or will I be sucked into an ever-swirling loop of crafting, diplomacy, harvesting, or whatever odd side-skill lurks just ahead, ready to whomp me over the head and make off with my magical cookies? Well, this week you'll get to decide, as I put the future of my fuzzy little Raki to a vote! But first, join me after the break as I recap the last week's adventure in Telon.
Choose My Adventure: Apseth, the Raki disciple
Last week's votes have been tallied, and this week we've got a shiny new Vanguard edition of Choose My Adventure to start! With 12.5% of the overall votes, Raki managed to take the lead as our character's race. With that said, while 110 votes were cast for blood mage, that is not a viable class option for a Raki. Thankfully, the second place winner at 86 votes, disciple, is something a Raki can be, so that's our winner! So, without further delay, allow me to introduce you to Apseth Navarre, Raki disciple -- my shiny new Vanguard character that you'll get to help direct (and even play along with, if you'd like) through this series of Choose My Adventure posts. Interested in finding out more or taking part in this week's adventures? Well then, join me after the break as we start down the path into reader-driven adventure, Vanguard-style!
One Shots: Everybody dance now
While the bulk of what we do here as part of One Shots are reader contributed screenshots, every so often we love to give you a look into what we're playing. This particular image comes from an event I attended on Friday evening in Fallen Earth. Dustfox, as seen to the left, is the head of a player-controlled radio station called Post Apoc Radio. Different players take turns DJing on the station (including me), where they take requests and generally have fun RPing with the community. This last Friday during DJ Dustfox's set, no less than 4 Fallen Earth GMs showed up throughout the evening to come dance with players between help calls. It was a great surprise - and a lot of fun! One Shots needs your screens! So while you're out playing - or digging through your hard drive - grab some screens for us. Send them to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name, the name of the game, and a brief description of what's going on in the screenshot. In turn we'll give your contribution a moment to shine, right here on Massively. How cool is that?%Gallery-9798%
