Hi Ron.
how was that one for quests? I freely admit that as far as games are
concerned, interacting with other players isn't really on my priorities
list, I'm far more interested in exploration. In fact, this is probably the
major issue with being stuck to brouser based stratogy and rpg games and
muds, in that such games frequently depend upon player interaction, ---- be
that pvp or social, for their interest.
The only one that didn' was Sryth, but that certainly seems to have changed
recently.
That's why now while I dabble with the odd game (reviewing them for
audiogames.net gives me a good excuse), I mostly prefer gamebooks like the
chronicles of Arborell, ffproject or age of fable, ---- even when I need to
do all the dice rolling myself and keep a character sheet.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

The only mud I ever really got into [mainly because of my gals interest at
the time and hooking up with a couple other blind/vi folk was MUME.
Multi-Users-of Middle - Earth. Obviously a Tolkien spin Though we spent
many an hour on it. I retired my char, but would love to go back and
explore more or help newcomers If they let me know via this forum.

Well I'm glad the news etc does help,k sinse I do try my best to get stuff
out quickly.
I'm not really the person to ask about muds, sinse until vipmud I'm afraid
i
hadn't played any, ---- and to be perfectly honest the muds I've tried
just
haven't fulfilled my own desire either for interesting plot and quests, or
for combat which involves more than just equipping and preparing your
characters' stats essentially hammering fight, fight, fight!
Materia Magica I really liked the idea of sinse it did have interesting
background, a huge world and some quests much like an If game, but the
time
limit on quests and total lack of in game maps made the damnable thing
near
impossible to play.
I also looked at medeavia, though that one just didn't feature much
questing
at all or even have interesting plot.
Alterean kept my interest for a while, sinse at least it did have quests
of
a sort, even if there didn't seem to be any progressive plot or detail to
the quests other than "go and get items x y z" or "go and kill X" at
random.
The rather odd job nature of the world was something I found a litle
confusing too.
If anyone can make suggestions of muds with plot, background and
interesting, none-frustrating quests, I would be interested.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
