The other day during the tutorial we ran, I had a very scary experience. I asked the audience of a few hundred, "So, how many of you have played EQ?" And four hands went up. "Really? Wow, I'm surprised," I commented--since these days it seems like I can't go to the grocery store without overhearing someone talk about their 23rd level necro.
"OK, how many of you played UO?" Five hands. More than EQ. Surprising. "Asheron's Call?" Around a dozen hands--OK, it keeps getting weirder. "Other?" A few stragglers, like five maybe.
Then I asked the biggie. "How many of you are currently making or soon plan to be making a massively multiplayer online world?"
All the hands went up.
It was all I could do not to sigh into the microphone... "...doomed. You're all doomed."
