A New Generation Of MOOs

Posted by simoniker on from the don't-have-a-cow dept.

eric.costello writes "MUDs (Multi-User Dimensions) are to Ultima and Everquest as MOOs (Mud, Object Orientated) are to... The Game Neverending? There's a great interview up at Mindjack with the makers of the upcoming web-based MMOG." The article states that "EverQuest puts you in someone else's world, but in a MOO, the world was yours to help create," and this seems to be a big part of what The Game Neverending is trying to promote.

    It's like the MOOs play YOU.

    If the game allows you to mold the game to your liking, is the game the final product or the path leading to it?
