WRUP: What Are You Playing This Weekend?

It's time for our weekly open thread! We're chatting about the MMOs we're playing this weekend and dreaming up our ultimate no-limits Halloween costumes.

What are you firing up this weekend? That's the question we're asking in this week's WRUP, our regular open thread where we kick back and talk about the games that are eating our free time.

As always, the focus is on MMOs. Whether you're grinding dailies, chasing a new raid boss, leveling an alt, or just logging in to hang out with your guild, we want to hear about it. There's no wrong answer here — if it's an MMO and it's on your screen this weekend, it counts.

But we've also got a bonus question for you this week, and it's a fun one. If money, time, and effort were absolutely no object, what Halloween costume would you wear? No budget limits, no sewing skills required, no worrying about how long it takes to put together. Just pure, unfiltered costume ambition.

Think about it for a second. Would you go full cosplay with movie-quality armor and props? Would you commission something so elaborate it needs its own handler just to walk through a doorway? Or would you aim for something so specific that only a handful of people would even get the reference — and that would make it even better?

That's the beauty of this prompt: it removes every real-world excuse. You don't have to worry about shipping times, craft store runs, or whether you can actually sit down in the thing. You just get to dream up the costume you'd wear if the only limit was your imagination.

The same goes for the MMO question, really. Maybe you're deep into a game we haven't touched in months. Maybe you've finally talked your friends into trying something new. Maybe you're just logging in to fish. Whatever it is, this is the place to share it.

So drop your answers in the comments: what MMO are you playing this weekend, and what's your dream Halloween costume? We'll be reading through and replying, so don't be shy.
