MJ Guthrie

- Contributing Editor -

When not immersed in her favorite virtual worlds, MJ can be found hanging out with her family, reading, coaching/playing sports, writing fiction, singing, and dabbling in graphic design (in random order, depending on mood and season). Her favorite part of MMOs? Observing the dynamics of virtual communities. That psychology degree has to come in handy somewhere, doesn't it?

MJ's Massively adventures can be found many places:  She co-created Some Assembly Required; pens Wings Over Atreia; investigates conspiracies in Chaos Theory; chronicles adventures in The Tattered Notebook; dives often into Choose My Adventure; livestreams on Massively TV; and launched The Stream Team.

The Stream Team: Caveman edition, June 17 - 23, 2013

Wings Over Atreia: Exclusive peek into Aion 4.0's new zones

I have a pretty standard M.O. when it comes to my MMOs: Regardless of how various tutorials want to direct me, I wander off and explore the new world I find myself in. I love to poke around, look into corners, and see all there is to see. The same goes for any time a patch or expansion opens up new ...

In fact, there was plenty to be said about two of the existing games porting to the new PlayStation 4. And while some of it is good, sadly there's some not-so-good ...
