When One is excited to get on Top

Gamers like me who loves PVP so much always works hard to get our character in to shape. Shape which means to have our own character unbeatable when it comes to PvP. Games that are really “good” for me are the games who are NOT pay-to-win. I mean here you are playing and you need to spend money to WIN? Please~.


One of the most anticipated games that has been release and till now is still on top is Guild Wars 2. Based from MMORPG.com Guild wars 2 is there top mmorpg of all time, these rating game from the users who voted for the game as well as the forum staffs. While in metacritic Guild Wars 2 got a total of 90 from 69 critics and having 8.0 from 2040 Ratings (users).


Based from the ratings that I've seen it made me think that it’s NEVER TO LATE to try out this game. The game is quite fun and addictive. There are lots of notable feature this game has, Platforming,  Underwater Combat, 5-Man Dungeons, vW Siege Weaponry, Character Personalities & Story Branching.



Guild wars 2 is really fun to play. However when you reached level 20 on wards you’ll start to realize the need of the equipments. Now since this game is not PAY-TO-WIN, everything you’ll be needing should be worked hard. This problem occur with my friends as we continue on trying level up our characters.

This got us thinking of IF there is someone who is willing to sell us GW 2 gold and we’ll just pay for his hard work, it would be nice. Gold will help us to get stronger and to fast level and attain the level we wanted to get on roll! And PVP is on our way!

Rift developer increases MMO retention through rewards



Retention rates for subscription based MMOs are a really hard thing to regulate. After all, why do you think so many of them drop their fee to go free-to-play?
Trion Worlds has somehow managed to survive the switch, and is still offering subscriptions. Due to a little imagination on their part, they've managed to increase the daily active user count by 470 percent by offering simple in-game rewards through the website Raptr.

The developer saw results in as little as a few weeks. One of the biggest ways they got people into the game is by offering a free copy of Rift with a one month subscription for reaching an "Experienced" rank playing other RPG games like Torchlight II. There's also an entirely different tiered system once you start playing Rift itself, that will net you free items.

I played Rift off and on for nearly two years now, and it's a great game. I haven't resubscribed in a while because I've moved on to many other MMOs, but every once and a while I enjoy going back and seeing what Trion Worlds has to offer.

Original EverQuest designer Brad McQuaid rejoins the team



Original EverQuest designer Brad McQuaid has rejoined the massively multiplayer online game's development team, according to McQuaid's recent post on the game's official forums.

His return to EverQuest comes after a 12-year absence and will allow him to work on features that date back to the 13-year-old MMO's launch.

"When I was given the opportunity to return to the team it was something I just had to do!" he wrote. "I started playing right away and got a paladin into his mid-30s. I found, in addition to all of the great new features and [user interface] elements, that the game, at its core, was still very much the [EverQuest] I was involved with. In fact, some of my first work as a game designer on the team will be working on areas that have been alluded to since launch. I can't say more than that, of course, but I'm sure you can imagine how exciting this is for me."

After McQuaid left the EverQuest team, he co-founded Sigil Games Online and helped develop the Vanguard: Saga of Heroes MMO. Sigil was purchased by Sony Online Entertainment, which also publishes EverQuest. It adopted a free-to-play model last year.
