HGL - GameSpy Explores Stonehenge : FPS / MMORPG / RTS Discussion

The Stonehenge Chronicles, Hellgate: London's first content update, has launched and gaming media sites have taken notice. GameSpy.com posted a thorough review of the major update earlier today, complete with "London Calling" lyrics for passage headers. Author Gerald Villoria touched on all aspects of what waits beyond the portal to Stonehenge.

"Stonehenge is a very handy place to check out for subscribers, as it's the only base of operations with no less than four different vendors at a time, offering expensive yet very useful armor, weapons and mods. All the standard trappings of a quest hub are here, as well as the gates that lead you to the new content areas. The central questing area is Wake Hallow, which serves as an instance with entrances to the domains of Moloch's followers. The idea is to collect the heads of each of these overlords, unlocking the path to Moloch himself."

The article goes on to discuss the drop rate of essences and how the content update encourages players to band together against the demons. A good read, certainly; check it out here.
