Anyone ever play Might and Magic 3? Where its fake 3d? and you walk around and you take ''steps'' and only 4 directions (n, s, e, w). Well what if that was muli-player...and players could group...and like hire other players for services, much like you could in MM3 with the NPCs. Just an idea I''ve always had... want to see what any of you think about it... This would be easier to code then a true 3d world like EverQuest or whatever...and would allow for huge addons....I personally think it would be cool if it was done right...

I agree with you it sounds pretty cool, and it doesnt seem like it would be that hard to make either, how much else have you thought out about it?

Well what I was thinking was make it like a mud...but with an interface much like mm3. Where you start in a town or homeland, and do quests for that area...get some exp, money, build a party...with npcs or other players...

I attempted pre-planning on how you would create the ''room'' images a long time ago. obviously doing 4 images (one for each direction the player could face) would be too much ...this would save space with textures and I think it would be pretty fast...also having it built on the fly would open a huge door of possabilities with rooms...
