Neverwinter, from developer Cryptic Studios and publisher Perfect World Entertainment, is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing game set in the Dungeons & Dragons universe, or, more specifically as the game's title suggests, in and around the Forgotten Realms city of Neverwinter. At the game's beginning, players select from the standard fantasy races, from dwarves to elves, and a variety of classes, including the normal range of some that specialize in different weapon types while others prefer the use of magic. After a brief introduction to the various gameplay mechanics, players arrive in the city section of Protector's Enclave, which serves as the primary hub for partaking in quests, participating in player-versus-player combat, and buying and selling items at a wide assortment of market vendors.

The game’s Daily Quest system is keyed to the Foundry, encouraging its use. I’m sure some players are using it by just farming the shortest missions, but I’ve chosen top-rated missions regardless of their stated length and I’ve generally been having a good time with the user-created content. Of course, it’s a total mixed bag, so be sure you read the description of a quest before taking the plunge. The game supports French and German-language quests as well as English.

The most striking feature of Neverwinter is the player-based creation system. With Foundry, players are able to create their own D & D style missions using a complex and extensive dynamic set of tools that provides game components and a sandbox environment to create your own adventures, map and script. Once your creation is complete, players can post it so that other users can have fun and complete, with the right to receive rewards and experience points.

There are five classes to play around with in the game: Guardian Fighter, Great Weapon Fighter, Devoted Cleric, Trickster Rogue, and the Control Wizard. Their names tell you exactly what you can expect to get out of each class and they’re all neat enough to make you want to play around with each one. Each class also has a specific dungeon skill that will let them access hidden areas or treasure; the rogue can see & disable traps while the great weapon fighter can open hidden chests.

Now personally, I don’t mind the linear nature of the game. This is probably because I’m more accustomed to playing single player experiences that always reach a definitive end, and in this regard, there certainly comes a point when Neverwinter hits that inescapable end-game wall. Whether you’ve reached the level cap of 60 or not by the time you finish the final stretch of the story, there’s very little incentive to keep on grinding towards that goal, despite the promised updates and future quest expansions that will be factored in later on down the road. In many ways, I think a large part of whether or not you wind up loving Neverwinter will boil down to how linear you like your MMORPGs.

Tomorrow, an Anthem patch will "greatly reduce" your chances of finding components for javelins you aren't using, according to the game's global community manager, Jesse Anderson.The patch, which rolls out tomorrow morning, will also make loot you earn from an Elysian Cache show up immediately after a Stronghold finishes.Apparently, players should rarely receive loot for javelins they aren't using, but a bug was making it happen more often than intended. "It should be very rare now, if you’re playing Storm you should almost always get Storm components or Universal components," Anderson said on Twitter.

A new Anthem update 1.08 for PlayStation 4, PC and Xbox One released. According to the official Anthem 1.08 patch notes, the latest update resolves various issues related to balancing, matchmaking, server performance, stuttering, framerate drop, crashing, and more. In addition, the new Anthem version 1.08 also includes stability and performance improvements.

Needed to grind out and kill some Urxis or Titan enemies but just couldn’t seem to come across any, no matter what you tried? It was actually a problem on the game’s end and, once you’ve downloaded the Anthem 1.08 update, the game should be a little more busy in terms of enemy mobs in places where they maybe weren’t as many previously.

Elsewhere, the kinks are being worked out on a host of issues. The annoying loot drop issue, which saw you being gifted rewards for Javelins you weren’t currently using, has been removed. The missing items from the Elysian Cache are also now back exactly where they should be.

Finally, those who were unable to talk to Owen during the denouement of Finding Old Friends should discover that Owen has found his voice again, and should be free for you to interact with. Again, this is nothing revolutionary, but it’s baby steps for a game like Anthem, and this fixes could prove crucial for many a player.

In related news, Bioware has come under fire following a Kotaku expose on Anthem’s troubled development.It was also revealed that the flying mechanic almost didn’t make it into the game, but was added to impress former head of EA studios, Patrick Soderlund.Anthem’s last patch added Elysian Caches, and Legendary Missions to the game, but the much-requested reintroduction of bolstered drop rates has yet to make its way back into the title. Finally, to enjoy all the features in the game, players can Buy Anthem Boosting from Mmocs at a reasonable price.
