Happy birthday,
My gift to you is this Wraith Inna Box for when work gets stressy.
Take him out and feed him...

Pursuant to my last thread on this topic:
- What do you think defines a good computer-based multiplayer, on-line, role-playig game? Please name one hallmark property.
- Which aspects of "mundane life" should be retained in such a game, and why? e.g., farming, cooking, weaponsmithing, technology development, writing, everyday diplomacy...
- Which aspects of "mundane life" do you feel are quotidian enough to omit from games, and why? e.g., any of the above, or something even more boring
- Would you use terrain generation software if it were fully automatic, subject to some built-in and some gameplay-driven constraints?
- If you had chance to import "cameo" characters from an SF fandom (print or film and TV) into a massively multiplayer world, would you take it? Why?
If you have an interest in RPGs (online or otherwise) and answered this set of questions, please repost it in your LJ.
