Wish Cancelled [Jan 10, 2005, 11:11 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Mutable Realms sends word that Wish,
their MMORPG, has been cancelled after a brief period of beta testing. The beta
ended last night, and it sounds from the announcement that Mutable Realms will
not continue as an entity beyond this point either:
Dear friends of Wish:
Unfortunately we have bad news.
After careful consideration of all the facts and analyzing all the data which we have gathered from the Wish Beta 2.0 test so far, we have decided to cancel the Wish project.
Our Beta test will end this evening at 6pm EST, and at this time our Beta forums will close as well.
We enjoyed working together with our fans very much, and we are very sorry about this development. We wish you the best of luck in the future, and hope that you continue to enjoy online gaming, even with Mutable Realms and Wish not being available anymore.
We also wish the best luck to our competitors, and hope that they will not suffer the same fate as us.
Owned. I hope this signals the demise of MMORPGs and the beginning of a new single player CRPG rennaissance.
There's still something to be said for a good MMORPG experience. I primarily play WoW like a single player RPG (or at least a LAN based one). I typically only party with my wife and we play thru the quests together. I don't typically like partying with others, but there is still something cool about having someone (a real player) come over and help you out of a jam or you doing the same for them. Is this type of experience worth an extra 15 bucks a month? Can't answer for others...but it is for me and my wife. Morrowind was really cool, but there was something sort of sterile about it, since there were no "living" players in the game with you.
