Gavin "Yogitus" "Yogi" Townsley was raised writing stories and playing video games. After his first taste of MMOs, he's never fully recovered. Gavin has spent time writing fan fiction, RPing, streaming, raiding, and even a brief time in competitive PvP.

I'm a hero, for freak's sake!" to which my teammate would respond, "Quit feeding and die in a fire." It was a confusing and tumultuous time. Thankfully, the ...
Piles of dead demons: A hands-on with Path of Exile
Path of Exile makes me smile. It isn't because of the gritty, dark setting or how a swing of my mace scatters disembodied monster pieces in every direction. It isn't the interesting design of the passive skill tree or the inclusion of PvP. What makes me smile is knowing that the kid inside me has ...
