Terminally Online
This is Terminally Online: PC Gamer's very own MMORPG column. Every other week, I'll be sharing my thoughts on the genre, interviewing fellow MMO-heads like me, taking a deep-dive into mechanics we've all taken for granted, and, occasionally, bringing in guest writers to talk about their MMO of choice.
A while back, I proclaimed that the old-school MMOs we all used to play are dead, and that we have killed them. I still mostly stand by that opinion, but I now have a major exception: The old sense of discovery, community, and mythology in these MMORPGs is alive and well in an air-pocket, deep under a sea of disseminated knowledge: It lives on in challenge running.
