So, yeah, a few of us have splurged on a copy of this “Baldur’s Gate” thing and gotten fully obsessed with it. It’s an obscure game, so I’m sure you’ve never heard of it, but it involves a lot of the same things we have in MMOs: hit points, rifling through corpse pockets, and looking down on Halflings.
It’s fun to take a virtual vacation to other video game realms, especially if you’re hopping from an MMORPG to a CRPG. It’s not long before you start taking a liking to certain features, wishing that you could put them in your pocket and bring them back to your MMO. If you could pick any system, detail, or design from a CRPG and transplant it to an MMO, what would it be?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
