The Minions of Mirth The
Minions of
Mirth Q&A, Part #1 on RPGDot introduces what's confusingly described as
a "massively single and multiplayer RPG" in the works at Prairie Games:
"Players can host their own worlds and mod the game's content and source
code. When you host your own world, you can log into the game world as an
Immortal. This gives you access to all sorts of special commands like
controlling time, weather, monster spawns, etc. You can also setup other
players as Immortals and Guardians to help administer your world. We provide
the dedicated world server, full source to the game's RPG logic, and full
source to the game's RPG database with a compiler, as a free download."
Dark & Light The
Dark & Light Q&A on MMORPGDot talks with Stephane Quilichini, lead
designer on NPCube's upcoming MMORPG: "We do believe that pet AI and mounts
use is a part of combat that has been very rarely that developed in a MMO. A
player will be able to manage up to 3 pets at the same time and dozen
"summons". If you are a group at the same place, I guarantee that the screen
gets full very quickly! Combat will be at the level of other MMOs on the
market. We chose to concentrate our innovative development to the MMO
gameplay sometimes forgotten: economy and politics. As for the first
politics action for instance, the opportunity to choose where to install a
fortress and built it in real time."
