Hey everyone! Alex Danger here, and it’s Friday! That means another quick look at this week’s YouTube content. This week we feature coverage on two races from Carbine’s upcoming MMORPG WildStar, more for The Elder Scrolls: Online, and a glance at Square Enix’s fast-paced third-person action brawler Nosgoth. Shall we begin?
If you’re anything like me, then your first look at WildStar no doubt draws you in. This week we dive into the customization and background of the Aurin and the Granok, two Exile races fighting against the Dominion. The Aurin are cat-like creatures that specialize in quick movement and assassination, thus their classes are limited to the Esper, the Spellsplinger, and the Stalker. This race will no doubt be one of the most popular races in WildStar given their cuteness and resemblance to cat-girls from popular culture.
The Granok are golem-like warriors who drove the Dominion off their planet after receiving a figurative slap in the face by Dominion warlords. Comprised of the Medic, Warrior, and Engineer classes, Granok are bulky statuesque lifeforms that will likely be seeing the front lines of battle in most cases.
Nosgoth is a different take on the third person action genre, pitting humans against vampires in an exciting spin off on the Legacy of Kain series. So far the information we have is pretty straight forward, and as there is only one gametype currently, we can focus on the bloody and brutal details to our hearts content. Humans, toting high-powered weaponry, fight to exterminate the last of the longest lines of vampire royalty, re-establishing their dominance as the apex species. The fanged legions that remain are comprised of the toughest and most diverse killing machines ever spawned; flying, charging and lunging at their prey, most often resulting in a gory mess on the ground or walls.
Lastly, a quick video highlight the usefulness of the enchanting profession in The Elder Scrolls: Online. Improving your weapons and armor is vital in any MMORPG as you reach later points in the game, so check out this video to stay ahead of the curve!
