Love MMO Detailed
Love Mmo
Love is an ambitious MMO project being undertaken by one person, if I recall correctly. A lot of people are not familiar with its concept and goals, such as how it is a procedural generated online adventure game that seeks to provide a whole different experience to be had in an online video game.
Procedural-generation is a fairly new concept to the MMO industry, and I am sure that the main stream fan base will not understand as a majority. What it means to be procedurally-generated is that the content is user generated, generated in real time on the fly. Generally, Mmo’s will have the content ready and prepared for you, not allowing any room for customization at all.
The community will be fairly small. That is to say, each server will only house 200 players at a time. It is not a leveling up type of game, but a game that encourages community togetherness and adventure. In the debut trailer of Love, it was suggested that players will be able to raid fortresses, however, it will have to be done with a good strategy. As seen by the power generation, used to strengthen the defenses such as a force field or even power some of the tools you use, it will be stronger depending on the time of day. On that one occasion, he actually had to wait until night fall where the defenses would be weaker and you may be able to sneak in.
This is a pretty interesting project to be held, to say the least. You can only alter terrain around certain instruments that are to be placed on the ground. If not, you would essentially be given the ability to destroy the world or even whole towns, which would be a definite problem. Instead, working in that vicinity, you are able to create an environment that reflects your hearts content. You can create mountains, caves, hills, moats, fortresses with intense protection, and much more. You could create a fortress, then task the community with the goal of destroying and invading the fortress, killing you. There is a lot of possibilities available for this style of gameplay desired for the Love Mmo.
To be honest, this seems like a bit too much of a job to be accomplished by one man, but apparently the brain behind the Love mmo believes that he can accomplish it, for what I assume complete control over the profits. What ever his goals are, it seems that this mmo will end up as one of the best mmo’s available for those who are looking for a new experience to have.
