Don’t be surprised, it was bound to happen. Requiem: Bloodymare, the mature-themed massively multiplayer online role-playing game from online games powerhouse Gravity, is indeed no more. In its place, however, is Requiem: Memento Mori, a new chapter in the game’s book.

Yes, that word, anticlimactic, just about sums up how I felt after finishing the low-level quest, Toren’s Request, in the hit Gravity online game Requiem: Bloodymare.
No, it’s not Gravity’s fault; the fault is actually mine. I level so slow that it takes me ages to finish a quest, and by the time I get around to finish a quest, my character’s already a few levels higher than the recommended level.
Requiem: Bloodymare’s Toren’s Request is one such quest. Part One of Toren’s Request becomes available when your character reaches Level 10 (yes, once the avatar, called a Temperion in Requiem: Bloodymare-speak, …read more
