comment 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 More
comment 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 More
comment http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/208-Eve-Online This video pretty accurately reflects my views of EVE More
comment 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 More
comment 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 More
comment #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 More
comment 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 More
comment 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 More

No Kids Allowed

Every time I think about this topic, I always picture Eastwood squinting and growling “Get off my lawn.....” through clenched teeth. That said, I hereby propose that the WoD MMO should be designed with an ESRB rating of AO in mind. Not an M rating – AO (Adults Only).  It’s not what you think! I

Systems of Control

I want to lose control. There. I said it. Does that make me weird? Maybe....   One of the strongest themes in the World of Darkness is the constant threat of losing control of yourself. The first question that usually comes to mind is: Why is this a bad thing? The answer is more complex than you

The Prince: A Dangerous Duty

Okay you've created your character, you know who she is, and where she came from. You know the storyteller's setting and who all the major players are. So whats your character's first goal?

“I start plotting to kill the Prince!”

Wait...why? The game hasn't started yet and you have no reasons to dislike the Prince other than the fact that he is the Prince.

“but..isn't that what you do?”

You Can Never Go Back!

or "The Unfortunate Myth of the Open-World RPG" You’ve just completed Sibling Rivalry in Bloodlines. Jeannette and/or Therese are now two of your new favourite NPC’s of all time (well, they’re on my faves list at least). You can’t wait to interact with these women even more, but....guess what –

Mortals: Lost amid the Bad-Assery

 Up until 2004, I had always been a player when it came to roleplaying. That year, after Storytelling my first major V:tM chronicle (oh my god, that’s almost 10 years ago....), I came to a startling realization: the mortal NPC’s in my game were as important, if not more important, than the

Role-Playing in an MMORPG? PREPOSTEROUS!!!

One of the biggest challenges that CCP will face with WoD is the struggle to try and balance immersion with game mechanics. This is a struggle that many MMO’s face, and most give up on. With their stated goal of having a heavy social or “coffee house” element in the game, CCP seems to be heading
