As the rednecks look behind them, Erax ducks back into the Cantina and starts building his defenses. The Cantina's innards are a maze of tunnels, fully explored by none,...

Re: OT - Career change advice - Game Designer

It looks like they're trying for the Lineage market. For those who don't know, Lineage is the world's biggest MMORPG, with 10x (yes, TEN TIMES) the number of players that Ultima Online has. It runs...

Re: Making More Out Of SEIV

Re: OT: here is your eternal life, but would you take it ?

I'd take the same route as GD. Live to 70 or so, then extend from there and play all the games I could ever want, go to all the places I've never seen.
