Many of the Massively staff will be on the road this weekend covering either PAX or Dragon*Con, so we figured this screenshot was appropriate for today's One Shots. What is it, you might ask? Well, from what we're told by Sevenwind, this is what the "AFK" screen looks like in Tabula Rasa. If you're going to be AFK, there are certainly worse things for your character to do beyond researching the situation. (Heck, that could be really handy on boss mobs if your character could research and tell you what to expect as opposed to having to rely on external websites and/or your raid leader!)
Will you be gaming at home this weekend, or heading out to get your geek on? If you'll be doing some gaming, you should grab some screenshots of your favorite game and send them our way! After all, One Shots thrives on your screenshots; otherwise we have to dig into the folders of our staffers. Email those screenshots and descriptions to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com! Safe (in and out of game) travels, all!

You're told this is what the AFK screen looks like? You guys - and there are quite a lot of you - cover the game regularly, but none of you actually play it?

@Henry - I personally have not played the game since beta, and I don't recall this graphical AFK at that time. Of course, I didn't spend a lot of time AFK -- I was too busy running around and shooting things like a madwoman. :)
Speaking personally, I'd love to play more MMOs. (I have 14 open subscriptions currently.) There just aren't nearly enough hours in the day to play every single one of them.

I gamed this weekend.... and spent time outside as well. I did play some TR (and lots of WotLK), after not playing it for a few weeks. I started a new character and was pleasantly surprised to see that the whole beginning part of the game has changed. It certainly feels more like you're "in the action" than it did before. I think I'll be spending more time in that game.. it's good fun, with lots of ammo!
