I awaken back in London’s Ealdwic district. That crazy puppeteer is still chattering away on the stage, and I still have my wallet. I’m helped to my feet by a friendly fellow Templar. Actually, I think *everyone* in Ealdwic is a Templar, or at least related to them in some way or another.
What an odd thing to say.
I realise, with a sudden sense of loss, […]
When last we met our hero, Mathias, he was trying to make the best of a peculiar out of the body experience that saw him possessing another investigator called Sarah. She and her friends seem to be having some monster issues on the Japanese subway. Having survived his first combat, and sort of having got the hang of it, they’re taking a breather at the top of the steps, before heading deeper into the Subway system.
The rest has given […]
Moving on from Part 2, off we go! As usual, I’ll keep updating this post until it gets too long.

Oh my. We leap straight into a long cut scene. It’s using the ingame engine so your character, as you designed them, is visible in all his glory. I’m not sure how spoilerish I want to get, but it explains how you received your mysterious powers, and came to be recruited by the Templar.

With my character made, it’s time to begin the journey!
But first…
Because the Beta version is not the finished product, there are a few issues, and I think it would probably be fairest simply to share the current list with you, in addition to all the changes that are already planned before launch :
Important Information
Please keep in mind that the version of The Secret World you will be playing this Beta Weekend is not the final version […]
Wurm have taken down their website and forums, and claim that it’s again safe to play Wurm Online. I hope so, as my horses are probably getting kind of hungry.
It might be fixed now, but there could be many players who are still infected, so it would be good if some official advice and assistance was given to them. Players have still not been notified by email that their personal details and general computer integrity have been put at […]
The Secret World’s open beta has begun, and as I pre-ordered I’m able to get in and take a poke around for the weekend. I’ll be reporting back on what I encounter. It will be my usual stream of conciousness nonsense, as I make my way through. We’re still in Beta, so expect things to change, but I can only talk about what’s in front of me, so that’s what I’ll do.
For this weekend, we are limited to team […]
I had a terrible time with Blackhole yesterday, and anyone who followed me on twitter would have heard my cries of frustration. I was running Microsoft Security Essentials which totally failed to prevent or notice what was happening. At the time I was not sure exactly where it had come from.
Now I know. Somehow, Wurm Online has managed to get infected with the Blackhole toolkit; a particularly nasty piece of work. It looks like it’s in the launcher. Blackhole […]
