Five on Friday

[Khaelieth]

Was I the only one that thought the interview with Lord British was AMAZING!??!

His views of WoW and Everquest basically mirrored mine!

[Drachir]

Haha, that was quite a cool interview!

I wish I played UO when it first come out, Lord British just popping up to help you out?! Awesome!

I didn't realise he was the creator of Tabula Rasa, either. Was thinking of checking that game out 'n all.

[Perrin]

"So I suddenly became a *state of the art developer*... uh... since there weren't any others..."

Someone give that man a Nobel Prize! 

Very interesting interview!

[Moraine DiGoraz]

I loved the bit about the thief, the lord and the noob
Also, back then it was natural for people to roleplay... nowadays you have to join a guild and even then the rolepay is still crappy!

[Kas Valentine]

Is there somewhere I can listen to this Five on Friday thing then....?

(PS; Khae, I take it you still haven't heard anything from Tabula Rasa...?)

[Shadwell]

I've heard about Tabula Rasa, it's utter crap. And not just from one source.

[Drachir]

It looks good. But so did Planetside, and that wasn't good at all.

Probably 'cause it was made by Sony, though.

[Kas Valentine]

Awwwww !

Planetside was great fun until the Core Combat expansion (and the silly one after that which introduced mech-style robots). S'one of the games I managed to get into the beta of and I was proper fascinated from the get go. We (my mates and I) used to spend days sitting on Planetside capturing towers, stealing Vanguards, knifing snipers and generally just having big base battles.

Anyhoo !

I applied for the beta of Tabula with Khae but I haven't heard anything yet so wondered if he had. It might not work on my computer but hey, worth a shot.

[Khaelieth]

Not heard anything yet=(

You can pre-order the game now though

[Drachir]

The one thing I haven't found out yet is if its a monthly subscription game like UO?
