Today, I’m excited to bring you a concise guide on acquiring the beautiful Barkroot Blessing skin in The Elder Scrolls Online.

ESO | Three Gorgeous Music Boxes | Housing

I’ve been playing The Elder Scrolls Online since late 2014 and over the years they have launched numerous music boxes as furnishings that you can put into your player homes.

7 Days to Die | Perishton Horde

After a few Diersville hospital horde nights, and one utterly destructive night in the ski lodge, we moved to Perishton for our next base in 7 Days to Die.

Gaming for Social Good: How Games Are Making a Positive Impact

I always hated when someone said that gaming was a waste of time. It’s no more a ‘waste of time’ than watching a TV show or a movie.

The Rise and Fall of Rift: A Journey through Trion Worlds’ Epic MMO

Rift was the first MMO I ever got seriously into. I’d tired WoW and gave it a good shot, but it didn’t stick with me for some reason. Then one day a close friend suggested that I try Rift, believing I might prefer it to WoW. Honestly, I’d had no luck with MMOs up until…

Path of Exile: A Complex Epic Action RPG

I love Path of Exile. I was introduced to it almost ten years ago, not too long after it came out, by a gaming friend who suggested I might like the dark fantasy and combat elements. It was probably my first isometric RPG set in a huge, ever-growing fantasy world and I did fall in…
