At last weekend's PAX South in San Antonio, I got a chance to try Dauntless, Phoenix Labs' upcoming free-to-play giant monster hunting MMO, currently in development.

Just because you've conquered the galaxy doesn't mean you can take a vacation.

2016 is almost gone, and that means just one thing: time to buy new calendars!...

I copped out last year.

All the memes say 2016 was a lousy year in the real world.

Since the dawn of time, RPGs have used something akin to real-life “rules” when it comes to loot acquisition: if you kill something or someone, you can take stuff from their corpses.

Sometimes it's just too easy to rag on Trion Worlds and particularly ArcheAge.

Obsidian Entertainment isn't afraid to try different things with Armored Warfare.

It's late in the year, and that means a new expansion for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Sometimes the headlines just write themselves.

Rift's Starfall Prophecy expansion is expected to launch today, bringing a level cap increase (to 70), new zones, new dungeons, the new legendary abilities, planar fragments, and so much more into the free-to-play MMORPG.

In case you missed it – and, if you've been following this site, I'm not sure how that could have happened – Skyforge made a ton of changes to just about every system in the game with its recent Ascension update.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is making significant changes to the way it handles loot at endgame.

I'm going to start talking about Atlas Reactor by talking about Star Wars: The Old Republic.

UPDATE: Zach Sharpes got this ad to pop up on Facebook yesterday: And Magicman says there was a section on the Amazon website that also labeled the game as a "free sports brawler," thought that section is now gone.

I haven't gone off on a good inventory management-related rant for a while, but the latest news coming from Rift has inspired me.

A few days ago, I read an opinion piece about a formerly free-to-play game that has received, shall we say, a bit of a negative response in the past few months.

Say what you will about AdventureQuest 3D itself.

Today is National Video Games Day.

Make a list of what you think are the free-to-play games with the best cash shops.

If you thought Path of Exile's last content update, Prophecy, shook things up, you're in for some serious world-shaking this time around.

Quake Champions is id Software's and Bethesda SoftWorks' upcoming team arena shooter.

In recent years, we've been mobbed by MOBAs and smothered with shooters.

For a long time, I've railed against traditional quest-and-level MMOs – “WoW clones,” if you will.
