Not understanding why this is against the odds. Maybe its coming from the Pong! generation, but playing games against anybody except the computer, and at anytime, anywhere was always a dream. Now, we have better gfx, faster systems, game content updates anytime, and worlds with so much depth you can get lost fo years (like I did with Galaxies).
Besides, if MMOs are surviving agains the odds, what are they supposed to have rolled over to? What is this wonderful gaming invention that is more fun than kicking ass on 6 continents?

| The one area that DarkSpace fails completely in is user interface. While games have moved onward and upward in creating friendly, accessible interfaces, DarkSpace has stayed virtually the same. It can be very, very daunting to a new player, especially since not a lot is explained in the tutorial except basic functions. |

So true.

| It is an MMO that stays alive not because it will make a profit, but because the developers and fans truly believe that it is a fantastic game. And it is. Despite being over a decade old, Darkspace is still one of my favorite games, and no other MMO comes close to how much I love it. |

True, again.
This is the best written essay about DS, ever. [ This Message was edited by: DiepLuc on 2013-03-10 11:38 ]
