dot HACK (link to site) The first DVD is great(thanks braddah Joe). It's a Japanese anime series. The story's about the online and offline dramas of a MMORG(Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game). I don't know what the game will be like since it's not an MMORG, but a virtual one. There's a online and offline world within the game. In the offline world you check your email and get updates about the online world. I wonder what a virtual online world would be like. The only MMORG I've experienced is Ultima Online. I've always enjoyed the Ultima saga of RPGs, but playing online with other players is real RPG. I mean you can only do so much with computer controlled NPCs(Non Player Characters). MMORGs offer so much variety and the communities whithin are just as interesting. Sometimes you can spend hours just chatting and socializing. Another neat thing about it was when I played late in the night(more like early morning) Japanese users would come online. I would be a translator between English and Japanese players .. I guess that's what I'm used to doing offline anyway. 5:32:44 PM      Google It!   trackback []   comment []
