Is this a social MMO? Is it strictly realistic or are there elements of mythology and such?

Not sure what you mean by social MMO, players can meet and chat, but its focus is on game play and graphics (at the moment)

We were trying to keep it a historicaly correct, but if we did there wouldnt be any monsters to fight so we will bring in mythology and the gods.

Hello

my compny, www.smarterlayouts.com can do the web design for you, and we are currently doing a project for another MMORPG, so we know the sort of thing you are looking for.

There is one downside, we do not offer web hosting. I can reccomend people, but i can not host for you.

If you still want us to create the web design without hosting

add me to MSN at:

Woodrally@hotmail.co.uk

Please note its .co.uk NOT .com

thanks,

Darren

What is a social MMO?
Whether you think you can or think you can’t, you’re probably right – Henry Ford

i think he means a mmorpg where its mainly about meeting people (like habbohotel) then there is a mmorpg thats mainly about game play (role playing) like runescape or world of warcraft.
