Between tournament seasons is a good time to introduce changes to <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/league-of-legends/">League of Legends</a></em>, and <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/riot">Riot</a> devs are adding plenty to the MOBA during preseason three. To give players a sneak peek of what to expect, <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Joshua-Leesman/">Joshua "Jatt" Leesman</a> and <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Ryan-Scott/">Ryan 'Morello" Scott</a> host an eleven-minute video outlining various changes coming to items, masteries, and the jungle.<br />
<br />
Items received quite the overhaul in this patch. Not only were new items like the <a href="http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Muramana">Muramana</a> added, but others were removed (namely the <a href="http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Heart_of_Gol">Heart of Gold</a>). Some items, such as <a href="http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/The_Black_Cleaver">The Black Cleaver</a>, were reworked. The devs also discussed balancing the game to give support roles more gold and lessen their ward burden as well as make various jungle strategies more viable. Masteries have also been moved around, and the utility tree has been spiced up. Check out all the details in the video after the break.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/league-of-legends-talks-preseason-three-patch-in-video/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>New League of Legends video details preseason three patch</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/12/04/league-of-legends-talks-preseason-three-patch-in-video/">New League of Legends video details preseason three patch</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 04 Dec 2012 11:00:00 EST.

The folks over at <a href="http://www.guildwars2guru.com">GuildWars2Guru.com</a> have scored an impressive interview with <a href="http://www.arena.net/">ArenaNet</a> Lead Developer Eric Flannum and Game Designers Ryan Scott and Isaiah Cartwright. The trio drop a few interesting nuggets about the highly anticipated <a href="http://www.guildwars2.com"><em>Guild Wars 2</em></a>. The piece touches on everything from World Versus World (WvW) PvP, to the game's unique take on healing classes, to crafting and gathering.<br />
<br />
"<em>We're still designing many of the specifics but players should expect crafting to enhance their adventuring experience and not be a system that tries to replace it. What I mean when I say that is that crafting will not be something players can engage in as a career without ever going out and slaying monsters and being a hero. We think that systems that allow players to do that can be a lot of fun but just aren't right for what we're doing in </em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/guild-wars-2">GW2</a>," said Flannum.<br />
