WRUP: Gestalt Version Gestalt is a psychological term that refers to something greater as a complete than the sum of its components. This isn't a tough phenomenon to see in action -- you've got to combine flour, yeast, and cinnamon collectively to get a delicious loaf of cinnamon-swirl bread, in any case. The term will also be applied to Transformers, which combine right into a single monumental robotic, normally one that's not significantly scrumptious. Despite this truth, the official term remains "combiner" as a substitute, presumably because the people who are in control of naming are worried about what would happen if everyone began utilizing obscure psychology phrases. Hey, so long as we're already talking about combining issues, we'd as well go whole-hog into this week's WRUP. That itself is a gestalt, however that does not appear fairly spicy enough. Let's all speak about combining games together into a complete higher than the sum of its parts. Yeah, that is the ticket. Bounce on previous the break for that and what the employees might be enjoying this weekend, then let us know within the comments what you'll be getting up to. Beau Hindman (@Beau_Hindman): I'll be finishing up my time with Minions of Mirth and shifting on to The Realm On-line. minecraft hunger games servers I have just barely began to play, but already the sport is very charming, and the group is awesome. Supposedly it is one of the oldest around! I will also be putting a lot more time building up my metropolis in Illyriad and trying to hit the next stage in Ministry of Struggle. Then I will continue to make plans for taking a week to use no PCs at all and to live off only my phone (for a future undertaking). If I might mix two games, they could be Ryzom and The Chronicles of Spellborn. Not only would it's one of the best-looking recreation in all the historical past of the universe, but it might have everything I wanted. Well, that's, if I could throw in some Wurm Online as effectively. And uhm... combine within the epicness of Vanguard. Oh yeah, and could I throw in some Mabinogi crafting and its rebirth system? minecraft hunger games servers What about... Brandon Felczer (@bfelczer): This weekend I'm going away on vacation to my time share in Palm Springs and going to try to not take my laptop computer -- Okay, I am gonna take it however try not to open it. We'll see how that goes. So, WRUP this weekend? LIFE! If I might combine two game into one, it would definitely be Star Trek Online and EVE Online -- that would be pure and utter madness! Brendan Drain (@nyphur): It is come time for me to close up the Massively Mob corporation in EVE On-line and depart Massively Motivated in the hands of its administrators. It's been niggling at me since the EVE fanfest that operating a PvE corporation is not what I need to do or what I am good at, and forcing myself to do it has murdered my enthusiasm for taking part in. I will be getting back into issues I enjoy more, like PvP and playing the market in my own time. If I could merge any two games, it might be EVE Online and Age of Conan -- an odd combination however one I feel would work. Having performed on a PvP server in Age of Conan, I discovered that sneaking across the zones monitoring gamers down and smashing them to bits was incredibly enjoyable. EVE Online's single-shard structure, open-world territorial conflict, a form of policing and sentry turret system for protected areas, and a disposable gear system might all do wonders for AoC. Eliot Lefebvre Ms. Lady and i might be persevering with to discover Remaining Fantasy XIV together, as she's been completely in love with the game now that she's acquired a machine capable of handling it. I've additionally acquired The Sims Medieval to occupy my time, and I would love to get again into Guild Wars with no matter spare moments are left. Combining games is a bit of a pastime of mine to start with, and a number of those games wind up being MMOs. I might like to see a mash-up between the setting and baroque, distinctive courses of Closing Fantasy XI with the ability system, armor system, and distinctly fast-paced breakdown of Guild Wars. Failing that, I might like to mash the setting of Sword 2 right into a Star Trek On-line-style engine. Combine up Fallen Earth and City of Heroes to give me a Gamma World MMO! Jef Reahard: A little bit of EVE and AoC right here, and i've additionally returned to EverQuest II for some time (mainly because it still has the very best player housing despite being seven years old, /sniff). My unholy hybrid could be Ultima On-line plus Star Wars Galaxies, and going into details would take this whole column. For those who performed both, you already know why. It is arduous not to include EVE in there too, however I believe CCP will eventually flip it into the final word sandbox, so there'd actually be no reason to mix it with anything at that point. Jeremy Stratton (@Jeremy_Stratton): I am continuing my quest to acquire and upgrade a vahtos accessory-set for my Priest/Rogue in Runes of Magic. Though every accessory has a really totally different degree-requirement and none of the items goes close to the current stage-cap, they're nonetheless really helpful for squishies (especially a pew-pewing Priest). I didn't should suppose for a second about which two games I would mix. I might like to see all the various enjoyable aspects of Runes of Magic injected into the giant and beautiful world of Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. Justin Olivetti (@Sypster): As a lot as doable, I'll be enjoying Lord of the Rings Online to eek out all of that extra bonus XP for the anniversary weekend celebration. So no RIFT till Monday, alas! Mixture-sensible, it'd be awesome to see RIFT and City of Heroes mixed. The soul system and dynamic occasions of RIFT would lend themselves properly to a superhero setting, and CoH has all the time had a number of the coolest fight and powers of any comic e-book recreation. Karen Bryan (@JayeRnH): It is Easter weekend plus the tail finish of faculty vacation, so my playtime's restricted. I will try to sneak in slightly Pirates of the Burning Sea, although! As for the bonus question, that is simple. I might wish to see Minecraft combined with RIFT. I want to see a plane of Minecraft with 16-bit invasions and armies of creeers and zombies operating amok throughout Telara. MJ Guthrie: This weekend will see me cooking up a medley stew -- a dash Lord of the Rings On-line, a few shakes of STO, a heaping scoop of EverQuest II, and then a sprig of Aion for spice. I believe that may fill me up fairly properly! Hmmm, nicely the first one would be easy to choose -- pre-CU Star Wars Galaxies! The emotes, the customization, the housing, the social classes, the crafting, the... I might go on and on. I might mix it with... um... Okay, the second choice is harder for me. I would very effectively select The Sims. I really like to build; to be able to design and assemble my own place would keep me entertained endlessly. Can I add in a number of The Matrix On-line options as well? Honestly, don't get me started as a result of I might snag options from so many games to make my good game! Then I may by no means enterprise into RL again... Patrick Mackey (@mackeypb): Champions Online is doing a free Serpent Lantern weekend, so any participant can play it. I'm positively going to be working a few of it with mates. One in all my buddies is coming again from the army on depart, so I will even be doing stuff with him this weekend. We'll most likely be taking part in Hisoutensoku and Artemis. I intend to add among the exploits to my YouTube channel, so if you are involved, test some of that out. If I could mix two games into one, it would be EVE and Armored Core. Specifically, I'd like a cutthroat financial player-targeted mecha motion recreation in a put up-apocalyptic world, where gamers pilot robots instead of ships and combat is blinding fast and ability-based mostly. At the start of every weekend, we meet up with the Massively staff members and ask them, "What are you taking part in this week?" (In any other case generally known as: WRUP!) Join us to see what we're up to in and out of game -- and catch us in the feedback to tell us what you are taking part in, too!
