This issue's feature story takes us into the workshop of Enayla Cosplay to learn from her masterful craftsmanship. We also share the spirit of charitable work with interviews from SpecialEffect and Game Changers.
Professional streamer AngerBeard and professional gamer James Dean share their stories of success and gaming with us. We also take an in-depth look at the benifits of gaming that mainstream media loves to ignore.
With the release of RIFT Starfall Prophecies, we also dive in with a new player guide, a guide about currencies and a walkthrough to the Nightmare Saga Act 1. We also reveal plans for the return of the Telara Saga, a 10-week public community event hosted by Gaiscioch.
Deeper within we have a hands-on sneak preview of Shu, Lost Ember and Yesterday Origins. We take a look at some of the latest games to become available including Tiger Knight Empire War, Yomawari Night alone, Sims 4: City Life, Ori and the Blind Forest, and We Happy Few.
With 2017 ramping up to be the year that puts “massively” back into multiplayer games, we've got your first look at 16 massively multiplayer games paving the way.

Big Year For MMOs
2017 is shaping up to be a massive year for MMORPGs. This means that we will likely see members wandering off in all directions playing all the new shineys. What's coming in 2017? Let me give you a small list of 10 titles you can look forward to. There are so many I wrote an article in Gaiscioch Magazine Issue 11 about them.
- Camelot Unchained
- BLESS
- Crowfall
- Chronicles of Elyria
- Dark & Light
- Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen
- Albion Online
- Shards Online
- Worlds Adrift
- Star Citizen
Now I encourage anyone who wants to play together within these games please join the Social Adventure and link up with other Gaiscioch members. There does not need to be a GSCH in the game for you to play together and claim participation together. You can form your own guilds as you see fit. The concept behind the system is to keep Gaiscioch members playing together wherever they go.
I don't know if any of this will make Chapter status, so far it's not looking like it, but you never know when a surge of interested players may arrive. So what we hope to do is keep people playing together spawn up some social adventures and see what sticks. We've got 3 strong chapters at the moment and should be able to sustain 700+ active members across the 3. 2017 only looks to strengthen those 3 chapters. It's just a matter of how many people flock to the new games and how many stick around for the current games.
Foghladha's January Event Lineup
With the new year I'm kicking off my new event Schedule that will run until the end of January.

The Return of Public Community Events
We are in the stages for final preparation for the Telara Saga 3. Prizes are being amassed, plans are solidifying, and anticipation is growing. We hope that you will join us for this as it is a grand example of what our community is all about.
Once the 10 week series has concluded we will be in full swing for the Great Tyrian Adventure in Guild Wars 2. Fortunately we don't need to grind too much for Guild Wars 2 as we already have many prizes on hand from the last one.
The Gaiscioch Passport
New this month is the Gaiscioch Passport. This passport allows you to register once to our public facing media sites such as Gaiscioch Magazine, ExtraLife, Great Tyrian Adventure, and Telara Saga. It will handle all community event raffles and communication.
By participating in various events players will earn experience which will raise their level. Earning levels will eventually grant you credits that can be used to purchase in game loot and special prizes.
I plan on creating little decals to act like stamps to show the things you've participated in. I'm sure it will be a fun system that keeps things interesting.
This system will be separate from the Gaiscioch.com membership system but can already link your account to your Gaiscioch.com membership account. Be sure to register asap to lock down your handle.
