A MMO in that type of situation*or at least an online game in general* would be fun.<BR/><BR/>Or at the very least...filled with zombies.Danshirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10022207369260811095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565056431333847622.post-67861853422244121912008-12-11T21:46:00.000-04:002008-12-11T21:46:00.000-04:00Have you read the books 'Night Watch' and 'Day Wat...Have you read the books 'Night Watch' and 'Day Watch'? They would make a great setting for an MMO. Underworld or any other type of vampire style MMO, I think would also do extremely well.<BR/><BR/>If you haven't already I recommend taking a look at Left 4 Dead. It's not an MMO, but it got a lot of zombies :)Crimson Starfirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03764422983380987864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565056431333847622.post-33741481621813657822008-12-11T20:59:00.000-04:002008-12-11T20:59:00.000-04:00Well there ARE talks of a Wheel of Time MMORPG and...Well there ARE talks of a Wheel of Time MMORPG and I've heard a few hints of a "Song of Ice and Fire" MMO as well. Both of these intrigue me.<BR/><BR/>However it seems there are plenty of MT MMORPGs coming out that are pretty decent. Maybe we'll see a more diverse selection...or will Niche titles close up just like Tabula Rasa is as you mentioned Edge on your blog.Danshirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10022207369260811095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565056431333847622.post-49662712010325530592008-12-11T18:00:00.000-04:002008-12-11T18:00:00.000-04:00In WoW, playing as the Forsaken is essentially pla...In WoW, playing as the Forsaken is essentially playing as zombies.<BR/><BR/>Magic Realism like Jorge Borges, or science fantasy like Julian May's "Galactic Milieu". The tensions, war and politics of C.J. Cherryh's Alliance/Union books. I'd love to be part of one of the massive Family ships. The Buddhist/Hindi planet in Zelazny's "Lord of Light" or the battles between the hundred immortals of his "Creatures of Light and Darkness".<BR/><BR/>There's lots of settings and lots of different kinds of games you can make. Blizzard, though, has set the bar so high, that moderate success is seen, mistakenly, as horrible failure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565056431333847622.post-8619006961427094892008-12-11T12:12:00.000-04:002008-12-11T12:12:00.000-04:00Yea, there are a ton of things that haven't been t...Yea, there are a ton of things that haven't been tapped into as far as MMO's go. Personally, I'm not a fan of PvP in any form or fashion...Mostly b/c I suck at it. But I've always been a fan of the whole White Wolf thing. Just never had a DM to run it when I was playing DnD. And on the mmo version, if it to ever have come out, instead of the Lycans being raving madmen, have them as enemy players. It would end up being a very PvP oriented game. Just my 2 cents.DulakQuickleafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281920684653647206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565056431333847622.post-20236017536569998402008-12-11T11:18:00.000-04:002008-12-11T11:18:00.000-04:00Underworld would be a really fun setting for a pvp...Underworld would be a really fun setting for a pvpv based MMO game.<BR/><BR/>I'd love to see a fallout mmo - i know it is beign touted although i wonder how it would work, probably difficult to do instances together.Tdubs036https://www.blogger.com/profile/10755232516134526198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1565056431333847622.post-71516464644968759382008-12-11T10:45:00.000-04:002008-12-11T10:45:00.000-04:00Actually a couple of these types are in the works....Actually a couple of these types are in the works..<BR/>Example<BR/><A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_World" REL="nofollow">Secret World Horror MMO</A><BR/>Which should contain a few of the elements you mention..<BR/>There was one also by SOE, but can't remember...<BR/>Basically I think Shadowrun or a Steampunk genre would work for me..<BR/>I LOVED Shadowrun, and Megaten comes close to that...but fails thanks to the fact the game is just not that good.<BR/><BR/>Ah well, we can always dream. 2009 for MMO's though is going to stink!Elementalistlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17536627257855895757noreply@blogger.com
