[MUD-Dev] When will new MMORPGs that are coming out get original withthe gameplay?

[Christopher Allen]

Dave Rickey's latest "Engines of Creation" column in the Skotos
Articles section:

  http://www.skotos.net/articles/

is out today on this topic, called "Come the Revolution" at

  http://www.skotos.net/articles/engines04.shtml

It starts:

  Raph Koster recently posed the question: When will we see a true
  "Next Generation" MMOG? My response was "How will we know it when
  we see it?" What would distinguish a "Next Generation" game? If
  Camelot and Anarchy Online and Shadowbane are all part of the same
  generation as Ultima Online, EverQuest and Asheron's Call, then
  what would make a new game mark a distinct break from that
  tradition?

  I don't know, but I wasn't satisfied by his answer...
