Guild Wars 2: Eye in the Sky – Action Camera Detailed
One of the new features coming with the Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns expansion is the new "action camera", essentially a mouse-look camera that removes the necessity for holding down the right mouse button in order to turn the camera. Now it is simply a matter of pointing the mouse and character and boom, the perspective changes to that particular view.
Camelot Unchained: Crowd Funded Class Grab
Since the last time we talked the CUniverse pushed through another stretch goal and it was a BIG one! Pandora’s hidden box has opened allowing stealth in all of its underhanded glory to be unchained! As if that wasn’t exciting enough CSE has unveiled a new stretch goal and two more sets of classes which means 6 new classes (9 total so far)! That was a lot of exclamation points!

General: Guild Wars 2 – Heart of Thorns is Here!
A lot has happened in Guild Wars 2 since its launch over three years ago. We’ve seen two Seasons of Living World content, changes and additions to sPvP and WvW, and a recent transition to free-to-play.

General: Faceoff: Open World RPGs vs. CRPGs
October is the most mainstream month isometric RPGs have seen in years. Wasteland 2, Sword Coast Legends, and Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition just around the corner, this is the month where CRPGs hit the mainstream like never before. Not to be outdone, November will push back with the open world juggernaut, Fallout 4. So, we’re going to do what any self-respecting gamer would do: compare the hell out of them.
