The Status of Today's MMO'sBy: RowellTuesday Jan 26, 2010 - 09:45 AM (-08:00)

Have you noticed a staleness currently prevalent in the MMO's out on the market (or at least the MMO's that I've tried in the past month or so)?.  When I say staleness, I mean the rut that the MMO developers seem to have fallen in.  Sure, a gaming company can create MMO's with different genres, or with different backstory.  But in the end, the game is simply a race through content to gain levels in your character's class, gain more and more powerful equipment in order to perform more quests/missions that fall into on of a handful of styles (kill X number of creatures, collect X number of items, escort X npc to Y location, deliver this X to Y person/location,  use X item at Y location, find X item that Y creature stole, etc).  And in the end, once you get to the level cap, you're into end game raiding against very powerful bosses with more and more complex mechanics.

Now, here's my question...If you were to design an MMO, or pick up an MMO from a store that really impressed you and sucked you right in, what would that game contain?  What original ideas can you come up with that do not currently exist in current MMO's?  In essence, what do you think would really wow you (and others) enough so you would drop what you're doing and play?

A simple enough question.  The answers, however, will be more difficult to come up with.  I invite you to share your thoughts and ideas in the Game Discussion Forum.  Anyone can read this forum, only web site members can post.  You can join the web site by visiting the New User Page.

Happy HolidaysBy: RowellThursday Dec 17, 2009 - 08:00 PM (-08:00)

Writing a quick post to wish all of you a happy holiday season, and a joyous and prosperous new year.

I've also posted a new photo album containing candid pictures of the crazy ferrets and kittehs.  You can find them at The Pet Photo Album Page.   Please feel free to visit and check out great quantities of cuteness.

Good evening all.   I've added a page to showcase some of my recent artistic creations.  The page has been filed under the "Projects" tab in the navigation menu above.  You can also access the page directly by visiting the Art & 3D Renderings Page.   I will be adding more artwork here once they've been completed.
