MMAwful: Online RPGs You May Want To Avoid
With the upcoming release of World of Warcraft Cataclysm and all the surrounding hype you might be beginning to think that WoW is the only MMORPG out there. Falsehoods. Allow me to present to you a list of some of the weird and wonderful MMOs out there (I can’t promise that there will be more wonderful than weird; you may want to get WoW Cataclysm after this just to get the funny taste out of your mouth).
You’ve probably heard of the Michael Jackson MMO that’s currently in development. Created by SEE Virtual Worlds and known as Planet Michael, the game features “Music, dancing, quests, healing and caring for animals”, which will supposedly unite gamers (both hardcore and casual) and MJ fans alike. The official site states that financial contributions towards playing the game will be optional, and that it will donate “some” to charities supported by MJ himself, thus creating “the most comfortable climate for altruism as is possible”. However, later on it also speaks of rare items and skills that if acquired “can be worth many thousands of dollars.” Very altruistic.
There’s another equally hotly anticipated MMO in the works as well. Don’t shoot the messenger. Twilight (I know). I don’t think I need to explain. Fortunately it isn’t an official, confirmed project as of yet; it’s currently being developed by Brandon Gardner, a student of game design from Florida, and his team of volunteers (known as Brainjunk Studios, probably for good reason). However we may yet be spared as all its sites seem to be down.
However, there may be hope for a decent MMORPG including vampires (though I can’t quite bring myself to think so). Recently announced was the World of Darkness MMO, based on White Wolf’s popular tabletop Vampire: The Masquerade. A joint project between White Wolf and Crowd Control Productions, the game will allegedly focus on player politics and social interaction as oppose to the usual questing and grinding of other MMOs. Despite that vague, non-sparkly glimmer of hope (I’m a fan of the tabletop game), I doubt it will amount to much in the end; I think I’m just going to go back to playing Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines.
