However, I also want more substance then that. I mean, after a while, just killing gets tedius and boring. I like to have a choice. If I am in the mood for killing I can, but if I want to solve a puzzle or perform a quest I want to have to ability to do that as well. I would really love a game with a developing story line. One that changes depending on what the player base contributes. one that may not necessarily have an end, since if it did you couldn't continuely play. But, one that has more of a story line that isn't so open ended. And from my experience, all muds are that way. As I said, I like the epic quest fantasy things like ff or zelda, or lunar. Games I will never have the opportunity to play. I do agree with you though, about some muds being hard to get into b/c of how complex and stuff it is. That also is a big reason why I don't et going. i will start a mud and then I don't feel like trying to learn all the commands so stop. lol Kellie and my lovable Lady J.

My idea is that, if I want social interaction and realism, I would just get out of the house. So, since killing is something I, we, don't get to do in real---at least not that often I hope, it is my main focus during gaming. This is not to say that I do not enjoy RP, but too much of it make my head hurts and tend to send me packing from the computer for hours... Also, some of these complex muds take so long to get into that one almost needs a master's degree to play them well rofl. So I guess I'm in the H and S camp, muds that allow me to log on, kill something or, things, for half a hour, and log off without having to think about it till the next time I want to play- and for that, Aeon and Cyberassault are great examples. Well, as long as you don't get into the clan themes on Aeon, you would be fine. I used to enjoy the shadowrun muds, both awakened world and awake, but then both muds required so much of me that I decided it was time to move on. I still have bad dreams of the awake days where I had to sit in front of the comp for 6 hours just to RP something through! No one ever kicked ass by saying I can't.

Re: [Audyssey] game cycle?
Hi Charles, As a matter of fact that's almost exactly how I am. I'll play something like SoundRTS for a week or two, get burned out, play Chess or Uno, get burned out, and play something else. Eventually, the cycle will start over. It is actually difficult for a game to keep my attention for very long. Take Sryth for example. While I truely enjoy the game I go through spells where I play it almost every day, and then there will be a spell where I don't do anything with my character for a month. Then, one weekend I'll find myself board, login, and play actively for a week or so before growing board with it again. This so-called cycle is what makes it hard for me to complete a game like Jim's NFL Football game. I'll start out a season make it through 6 or 10 games and get board off my rear. Perhaps a month later I'll start playing and resume the season again losing my momentum and drive to make it to the Super Bowl. I've litterally had a game of football last a year before i made it to the Super Bowl, because even though I like the game it can't keep my attention for very long. I'll play a couple of games and not pick it up again for weeks . Although, I am pretty sure why this happens. The bottom line is there aren't very many accessible games that truly satisfies me. Before I lost my vision I was into games like Tomb Raider, Jedi Knight, the original Heroes Might and Magic, Mech Warrior, and various other games that were out in the mid 1990's. There are very few accessible games that really compare. Shades of Doom and GMA Tank Commander are the closest I can think of which is why I purchased both as soon as I could. I don't personally get the same entertainment or satisfaction out of playing Uno, Hearts, Aliens in the Outback, etc. The games are good in their own way, but not my cup of tea. Smile.

Re: [Audyssey] railracer
Hi Pranav, Thankfully, it's the latter option, RailRacer has it's own virtual currency. You win money by winning races against the computer and optionally betting against other racers online. There is a class rating system for the tracks, the higher the class the trickier the track, and the more virtual money it's worth to win a race on it. There are also a few extras you only have access too once you've worked your way up to being a certain class of racer. In short, it's good stuff. More depth to it than a lot of audio games, but not so much depth and technicality that it stops being fun. hth Scott On 8/12/09, Pranav Lal pranav@gmail.com wrote: Hi Che, One thing that does intreague me about rail racer is the amount of money you need to pay for extras.

Hello my name is Sal. I am glad to be on this list and look forward in meeting you all. I was wondering about the wii, I just received one today and have checked out some of the archives on this list and the podcast on be c t. I was wondering if the setting up of the wii out of the box is possible for some one that is blind or is sighted help needed the instructions seem pretty good on the Nintendo site but just curious on some more tips. also besides the sports game what other games are as accessible in playing? has any one played the resort game, and does the wii have that game like ps 3 with the taking of cars and shooting people in the streets of new York? thanks for the help Sal --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.

Hi Charles, As a matter of fact that's almost exactly how I am. I'll play something like SoundRTS for a week or two, get burned out, play Chess or Uno, get burned out, and play something else. Eventually, the cycle will start over. It is actually difficult for a game to keep my attention for very long. Take Sryth for example. While I truely enjoy the game I go through spells where I play it almost every day, and then there will be a spell where I don't do anything with my character for a month. Then, one weekend I'll find myself board, login, and play actively for a week or so before growing board with it again. This so-called cycle is what makes it hard for me to complete a game like Jim's NFL Football game. I'll start out a season make it through 6 or 10 games and get board off my rear. Perhaps a month later I'll start playing and resume the season again losing my momentum and drive to make it to the Super Bowl. I've litterally had a game of football last a year before i made it to the Super Bowl, because even though I like the game it can't keep my attention for very long. I'll play a couple of games and not pick it up again for weeks . Although, I am pretty sure why this happens. The bottom line is there aren't very many accessible games that truly satisfies me. Before I lost my vision I was into games like Tomb Raider, Jedi Knight, the original Heroes Might and Magic, Mech Warrior, and various other games that were out in the mid 1990's. There are very few accessible games that really compare. Shades of Doom and GMA Tank Commander are the closest I can think of which is why I purchased both as soon as I could. I don't personally get the same entertainment or satisfaction out of playing Uno, Hearts, Aliens in the Outback, etc. The games are good in their own way, but not my cup of tea. Smile.

You play the heck out of that game, but none other. After a time, you decide to play another game. You haven't played that one for a while, and you get caught up in it, ignoring all other games on your PC. Sort of a game cycle. --- The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us. --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the list, send E-mail to gamers-unsubscr...@audyssey.org.
