At the start of every weekend, we catch up with the Massively staff members and ask them, ” W hat a r e yo u p laying this week?” (Otherwise known as: WRUP !) Join us to see what we’re up to in and out of game — and catch us in the comments to let us know what you’re playing, too! Rest state is a funny thing. On the one hand, it seems ridiculous by definition to have a game reward players who don’t play , but on the other hand, it’s a nice incentive to periodically stop and do other things. (Like post to message boards.) Considering the recent brouhaha with Final Fantasy XIV and its implementation of a similar system , we decided to ask the staff what they thought about rest states

Every week, just at the start of the weekend, we catch up with the Massively team and ask them, ” W hat a r e yo u p laying this week?” (Otherwise known as: WRUP !) Join us to see what we’re up to in and out of game — and catch us in the comments to let us know what you’re playing, too! Something appears to have gone awry with this weekend’s WRUP, as when we asked the staff what they were playing, most of them scurried out of the building and into the tall grass surrounding the exterior of the office. Despite the best efforts of several trained bloodhounds, only a few could be tracked down, with the rest presumably running for the hills or pretending to be botanists

Filed under: Opinion , The Daily Grind , Humor Most of us here at Massively play multiple MMORPGs, and we’re betting a large majority of the readership does as well. Whether it’s the standard main game and one or two flings on the side , or the game-hopping manifesto that compels us to try anything and everything that comes down the pipe, everyone has his own method for enjoying his favorite genre.
