I'm not sure as nationstates is the only one I've played.

I'm not sure whether it's the same company nbut the swerv.com games, utopia 
and earth 2025 both sounded your standard, complex, pvp stat management 
empire builders.

It actually shouldn't be too complex if their other games are a good
indicator. In nation states all you do is answer questions.

Hey all,

Just figured I'd let you know about this. Jolt Online, the company 
behind



Trukz and Nationstates2, announced recently that they were  releasing
Legends of Zork, an MMO set in the Zork world, with the same  storyline.
You're an unemployed salesman who was fired and than you  have to make
choices from there of what you want to do to your  character.

I'm not sure if they'll have the same quests in the game as in the
original Zork games, but what I'll say is it's got to have a  storyline,
in that you play through it. If it's Zork they'd do well to  have that.
You do start in the same area as in the original zork, the  White House,
but it'll be open ended and you'll be able to team up  with other players
on quests, which is pretty interesting.

The site is: http://www.legendsofzork.com

I'll certainly be looking forward to this when it comes out, and
hopefully they'll be asking for testers soon.

NS 2 is a lot more complex, though. Such as trading and war.
