OT: Will anyone ever create a game...

You mean there's a multiplayer Version floating around somewhere? Me wants! Me wants!

It's not really non-combat, though...


Anyway, not to flame you Argitoth, but the majority of people looking for more or less noncombat multiplayer games are usually those that can put up with pure text-based things, too (I for one wouldn't be able to stand a MUD with ASCII-graphics...) - that's my experience at least, and obviously the one from most gamedevelopers, too.

I heared of this Desert Tale thing, too... sounded horribly interesting, actually - people competed with each other for the gods' favour by fulfilling specific quests once a week, like putting up the most impressive firework, or building fantastic statues, designing gardens to their gods' likening, etc... all from a *ton* of variables. Entirely no-combat, though, as far as I understood. Ah, just found the link: www.ataleinthedesert.com ... if anyone gets to play it, let me know.


Anyway, why not just play Black & White? It's much more fun playing multiplayer than singleplayer, and you can win over enemy villages by having your big monster cuddle the inhabitants. It even has decent graphics, especially for its time - I still think they're good, but then again, I am not much of a graphics addict.
