One Shots: Ogre goes to Fantasy Magic School

Columns Community Galleries MMORPG We’re often surprised to see that some of the, ahem, lower sentient races like Ogres are able to make it through Fantasy Magic School and find gainful employment. Then again, we’re not that surprised to see that they get really excited casting the same two spells over and over again while passing a hat for tips. Minimalistway is getting dazzled in World of Warcraft , saying, “Sometimes I wish I could talk to hostile mobs and ask for close-up photos… before killing them.” Katriana is further in Palia than most gamers ever dared to venture: “I found myself getting sucked into Palia again unexpectedly lately. Started working on quests again and finally made it to the Temple of Gales (Vault of Gales?).” And Jaunty is finding whole new realms of pollen allergies in Guild Wars 2: Visions of Eternity . “It’s a little claustrophobic to get this spot but worth it. This might actually be the first time I’ve caught up with an expansions release cadence.” Also in Guild Wars 2 is Little Bugbear: “My husband and I are skipping ahead to Janthir Wilds from base game. Though it’s maybe a big story moment, we have no idea what’s going on. Soo wait, who dies? This game’s got aliens! All you can do is dance it off.” And here’s my Lore-master in Lord of the Rings Online , casually hanging out on the fringes of a massive battle involving waterfalls, fire, and Gandalf ordering us all around like he’s piloting an RTS game.
