The Maguuma Jungle is damp and dark, teaming with life in the most unexpected places.

The landscapes have Asuran laboratories, experiments and camps interweaved together with the flora and fauna of the Sylvari.

BY: BENJAMIN "FOGHLADHA" FOLEY

If you've played any of the Trine series games you know what it is to play a work of art. Trine has a very unique graphical style with vibrant colors and scenery that looks straight out of a painting. The best way I can describe the whole Trine series is like playing a moving work of art.

Lining Your Pockets, A GreedFall Starter Guide

BY: JAIRONE

GreedFall is at its core an action RPG with story. Like other action RPG games in recent years the combat will require the use of some active dodging. Or in GreedFall’s case the use of dodging or blocking. This title from Spiders, published by Focus Home Interactive, features a world roughly equivalent to the great age of sail. The setting is thus similar to the 16th through the 18th century, but with some magic giving the rituals and customs of religion and tribe far more than merely social impact. Given the presence of companions who fight with you, you could consider it more of an AA mix of Dragon Age with The Witcher. It has frequently been compared to those two games. Which fits, as it is just a smaller studio making something that blends the two styles quite nicely. You will start in your home in the city of Serene, with plans to sail to Teer Fradee. You have two goals there, diplomatic ties to the other nations and the native tribes, and finding a cure to a plague known as “The Malichor.”

I also found the wiki helpful with its Gourmet Training page. I will not be putting the full details of how to craft each item in your journey to becoming a gourmet. It is my intent to give you the flow of how this works and give you some tips to help you out.

Chilling out in Shiverpeaks: Top 10 Vista Views

BY: GMAFOG

Sweating away this summer, GmaFog decided to chill out by finding vistas in Shiverpeaks. This area is full of nice frosty places to run around, with a few areas of grassy, tree-laden spots to warm up when necessary. The Norn and Kodan reside in these areas with the dredge as their foe. There were lots of slippery spots to fall so using your mounts seemed helpful, but GmaFog went to the vistas on foot for the ones that you can’t mount up. As she didn’t want to spoil the experience for you, GmaFog will only show pictures of how to get there, not of the vista views themselves.
