And I can totally agree with that. They created EVE as an experiment at first. I think it's important to differentiate EVE and WoD. Just because they did EVE does not mean they will intend to make WoD

I was thinking about this as I was dozing off to sleep last night (how's THAT for some dedicated thinking?), and I think I came to the conclusion that CCP and White Wolf should make a game first and

My EVE comment was more because Fetch said he was bored by EVE and so would hope WoD wouldn't be boring. So, since I didn't find EVE boring myself - I'm not so concerned about CCP making a boring

The only sandbox game I have any experience with is EVE so I must admit my knowledge is limited to that, with Eve however, I can say that the PvE does very little to "bring you into the sandbox" The

#1.- Sandbox games are amusing but could be limited to those ones who get immersed in the game in some way. In WoD, PvE would be used to bring new players to the sandbox, if the MMO world set for WoD

Don't get me wrong - EVE is great for EVE. It makes a hell of a lot of sense to have a bunch of mercenary businessmen controlling massive amounts of intergalactic finance.It's just that when you take

I have concerns over any MMO, and of course over things in WoD. Personally, I never found EVE to be boring so I am not overly concerned about that. I enjoyed EVE. I'll admit, the traveling could be

Not TOO Economical, I Hope
"Economy of blood".The phrase is enough to send shivers down one's spine, and possibly make one salivate at the possibilities in a vampire MMORPG. But let's face it - economics are complicated, and games are meant to be fun. How far do we really want the developers to run with this phrase? I'm

The Poetics of the WODMMO
The idea that the WODMMO is going to have a "poetic" UI has been bandied about for a while now, and the developers are going for a much more "cinematic" gaming experience than what we've seen to date. Exactly how they're going to accomplish this, we have little idea, and there's enough speculation

Gangrel Politics
Oh, get that look off your face. Of course we have them! The thing about Gangrel politics, though, is that they bear little-to-no resemblance either to mortal politics or to mainstream Cainite politics. The keystones of Gangrel politics are respect, power, reputation, and action. Yeah, sure, this

The Gilded Cage
"Foolishness it were for any being free, To covet fetters, though they golden bee."-Edmund Spenser, the Amoretti, sonnet 37, lines 13-14 You must have heard this phrase by now, especially if you're a Requiem player: The term is most likely borrowed from cages wrought in the 1800s to house exotic
