With the recent news that The Chronicles of Spellborn is going to be going from a Freemium to a fully free-to-play game, emotions are torn. Those who have been subscribing feel like they're about to lose the game they've been enjoying. Those who have wanted to try it out but have been unable to do more than the first several levels are glad as it will give them a chance to play more. Either way you slice it though, it means change for the Spellborn community. With that said, we have a lovely screenshot from within The Chronicles of Spellborn that was sent to us by Terrivad of the Deiquonril server. He writes in: This is a screen shot of the interior of High House Silver in the city of Hawksmouth. House Silver being one of the five High Houses of the Enclave. They keep the economy in order and the day to day activities such as transportation, taxing and trade. (They're also obviously the richest House.)
One Shots runs on reader submissions, so we need to hear from you! Just snap a quick screenshot from your favorite MMO and send it to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name and the game/location it was taken in. We'll do the rest from there and give you the credit for sending it in.

This is one that had potential in beta. sadly the quests and crafting were unfinished and both of these unfinished aspects made it into the retail game and were unfixed for months, they left a sour taste in the small sub base. To top it off, folks playing the game trying to craft nice pieces of armor found that months of grinding for that certain something were in for a suprise, many crafting drops werent ingame.
After many folks found this out there was an exodus and pr spin to try and fix the damage, to late. Now we see this sad attempt at going the free to play model but you can buy our item shop stuff (which will happen) to give them revenue.
Another one bytes the dust. Piss poor planning leads to another failure, but hey, its never the devs fault is it?

Some of the architecture design in Spellborn was excellent. Hehe, I went House House Silver.
