If you are reading this site, hopefully it is because you simply love MMORPG’s. You enjoy playing them, you enjoy critiquing game mechanics, proselytizing for your favourite features or own ideas, and generally dreaming about creating your own.If so, you are in good company. Sometime in February 2005 a group of friends (friends made in-MMO) began chatting (also in-MMO) about their desire to try to build a game. On our super-secret forums, we’ve been discussing such questions as choice of genre, lore, game mechanics, theories of human motivation and the essense of what is fun. So far, we’ve arrived at no firm answers!
Things have been slow going. Time and skill are limited: we each must still earn a living, and we’re all new to game development. But it has been fun, so far.
Here we’ll post (however infrequently) on our progress, musings and occasionally commentary on interesting posts from elsewhere. We invite you participate as well. Give us your thoughts. Give us praise or criticism. Give us things to think about. We’ll try to do the same for you.
It is our hope to record our progress in this experiment for posterity (or at least as long as we keep up payments on the site) …. to perhaps make some new friends … and perchance gain some notoriety! Mostly, it is our hope that our guests (you!) enjoy their time here.
Sincerely,
Tachevert, Tuebit and the rest.
