A Bit of Turbulence Meets our Wayfinders Adventure at Launch As launches go, Wayfinder had it rough. 2 weeks in and even being able to get in at a reasonable time is a challenge. Their early access Launch certainly could have been better but they are hard at work smoothing things over. That said from what I've played and heard the game is truly enjoyable once you're in. Will people give it a chance after such a miserable start? That is to be decided.

The Gaiscioch Plan for Gloria Victis Over the past few months, we've seen our population thin out. Some because of the loss of newness, and most because of the lack of competition. We've gone from over 50 active players to around 10. On the bright side, we did finish in the top 5 last season and Radagasken took first place while I took third. The top 10 has filled with Gaiscioch members.

We have Gaiscioch set up for our most active players to help drive the levels up creating more space for more players. The top earners from GaisciochDubh will be migrated over to Gaiscioch as more space is unlocked. GaisciochDubh serves as an overflow and sister clan for the more inactive players but is still part of the alliance so they aren't too distant.

Gloria Victis Ramps up For Rollout! Join the Community! The countdown has begun to Version 1.0 and we've got one last stop before we roll out the official launch of the game. With this past month's patch, the game became a LOT more Gaiscioch friendly extending the no loot zone to 75% of the world. You can now explore and farm to your heart's content without the worry of losing anything from your inventory. The only Lootable areas are the center of the map and the other two realms' home bases. Over the past year, they had major revisions to the combat system, crafting, the graphics engine, added a wealth of new PvE content, and improved the guild system. They still have some more major improvements coming in early January through February with the 1.0 version expected sometime in late February or Early March.

Gloria Victis Nears Official Launch and Returns to Active Duty It's been a while since we last strolled into Gloria Victis. As an early crowdfunder we assisted the development of the guild system. I first streamed the pre-alpha in 2016. Even in its earliest state, it had some nice features to offer. Since then it has undergone massive changes and overhauls and the game is rapidly approaching its official launch.

All of us who have played it have noticed a distinct pull towards it. This little game from nowhere has a lot of character and charm.

Bless Unleashed is the Surprise of the Summer Say what now? Yeah, even I, the eternally optimistic, did not see this one doing as well as it has. It is currently the 3rd most played MMORPG on Steam behind Rust and Ark. Even stranger is the fact it has been there since the day it launched. It has more concurrent players on Steam than ESO, BDO and CB combined. That's one heck of a comeback for a game just about everyone expected to crash and burn. It will be very interesting to watch and see how it holds up through its first quarter.
