    Have you ever felt that way about a screenshot? It's kinda annoying, really. I don't have time for another game right now, and I don't have the energy to seek out a guild and make new friends (both of which are basically required in the sort of FFA PvP environment that Darkfall offers). So, yeah. I guess I'm just going to sit here and look longingly at that dude's spyglass and think about the good ol' Darkfall days. Oh, and Aventurine's put out its latest newsletter, if you want to give that a read-through. And there's a custom roles video after the break.

    Aventurine has released Darkfall's latest patch, and it introduces a number of tweaks to the fantasy PvP sandbox's economy. The devs have added high-yield harvesting nodes "in order to promote more active harvesting activities," according to the patch notes. Said nodes will always be full as long as only one player is harvesting, and they also drop new rares instead of essences, which allows players to skip the rare essence conversion step. New (and more expensive) rare tools are now available for crafting, and new basic materials have been added as well. Darkfall devs are also hosting a livestream today at 1:00 p.m. EDT to answer questions on the game's custom roles revamp. [Thanks Jane!]

    Aventurine has released a smidgeon of info on the Primalist, one of four new roles in Darkfall Unholy Wars' rebooted character progression system. The Primalist is "the healer and protector of his group and can help turn the tide of any battle with his interventions," according to the company's latest dev blog. The posting lists various Primalist skills that fall under the Life and Law schools, and you can read all about it on the official Darkfall website.
