And this is exactly why I play MUDs and MMOGs. I don't play them
because they're such wonderful literary creations. I'll read a book
if I want compelling writing. When I play a MUD or a MMOG, I play
because /I/ create my own story in my head with the framework I'm
given by the game. I don't think that I'm alone in this belief.
