Hi Acharis.

Initially, the scenario I was (subliminally) imagining was IRL friends playing together.
The drive behind that train of thought was to be able to cater to the people who simply do not like boardgames or prefer videogames over boardgames. I have tried for a long period of time to persuade my friends to play DnD but they simply do not want to, they don't like boardgames and think that RP:ing boardgames are just for nerds. >.<"

After "listening" to Ashaman's arguments, I realized how flawed, and far from a realistic scenario, this idea is and thus made me see that I have to re-think it.
I think I'll need some time to think about it before I can give you a definate answer to your question, but I am pretty sure the game would be steered towards alternative b rather then a, simply by necessity.

On another note, any thoughts on such a MUD?
NWN was sucessfull, was it not? And magicka also seems to be rather populare and apriciated.

Thanks / AS.

Edit: spelling
