DrunkenGamer meets the people of Elwynn Forest

Wednesday, June 16th, 2010

pitythe After helping out the residents of Northshire Abbey, it was time for me to wonder out into the wider world. It was time to head out to Elwynn Forest.

The first person I have to report to is naturally the local marshal, Marshal Dughan.  After talking to him and a few of the other locals in the area I have a few things to be getting on with it. Main thing I learn is that those damn Kobols, that I thought I had dealt with in Northshire, were actually just the tip of the iceberg.

These little buggers are everywhere in Elwynn, but the first lot I am tasked with sorting out is the bunch that have taken over The Fargodeep Mine. The locals don’t want them in there and have a whole pile of stuff they need from within the mine itself.

So given my marching order, I set out with Belyal for a bit of mindless bloodshed.

DrunkenGamer’s Journey Begins

Monday, May 31st, 2010

deputywillem So with DrunkenGamer created there was only one thing left to do, Introduce him to the locals and get to work.

Being Human this meant the folks in and around Northshire abbey. The first person I bump into is poor old Deputy Willem, his primary duty seems to be to see that everyone knowns that Marshall McBride was the guy that you really needed to talk too. After meeting the Marshall,  I learn that apparently the area has a rather nasty Kobol infestation. The mine in particular has had to be shut down because it was overrun by the little candle loving buggers.

On my way to the mine I have a quick chat with a local merchant called Eagan Peltskinner who wants me to help cull the local wolf population, in return he offers me a new pair of boots. Now the wolves have not bothered me really, but an upgrade is an upgrade and as a result the wolves must be killed.

After a small massacre I manage to pick myself up a few minor upgrades, a cloak, some new bracers & obviously the new boots Eagan had promised me.

Of all these items the one that pleases me the most is the cloak. Its a personal thing with fantasy games that I play, but there is always one item that I must have before it feels like the character is actually out of its creation phase. In Warcraft its the cloak, I don’t know why, but that’s just the way it is.

Thirteen1 May Issue Out Now!

Thursday, May 13th, 2010

This month’s issue of Thirteen1 gaming magazine is absolutely packed with top quality features!

issue26 Our DrunkenGamer has been on a gaming binge of epic proportions this month, starting with a tour of “Chapter III – The Elder Kingdoms“, the upcoming expansion for Frogster’s free-to-play MMO Runes of Magic, and culminating in a massive 8-page interview with Blizzard legend Tom Chilton!
The lovable inebriate even found time to traverse the desolate wastelands of Fallen Earth, courtesy of a tour with the game’s senior designer, but not before hacking his way through Rising Star’s top Wii slasher, No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle..
As if that wasn’t enough, he also managed to takeover his own version of browser-based mafia MMO, Omerta. Aptly dubbed the “Deathmatch” version, the DrunkenGamer will be using his MMO knowledge to spruce it up with his own ideas of how a game should work.
Our prediction – Omerta is about to see a whole lot of violence…

April saw the guys at Exor Studios release the brand new “Slaughter Mode” DLC for Zombie Driver, their bargain priced indie hit. Anyone who adds 50% more content to a game for free deserves some loving, so we got behind the wheel of the undead-basher again to see how the game has improved since launch.
If the sight of zombie limbs flying everywhere isn’t your thing, we suggest you check out the colourful universe of Allods Online, gPotato’s ’space-opera’ MMORPG, which finally gets it’s formal T1 review. Alternatively, if you’re after something a little more artsy-fartsy (we’re all about class), we definitely recommend you look into unique, hand-painted point-and-clicker, The Whispered World..
