Even Russia gets real life PKingJanuary 30th, 2007 |
The Moscow Times reports that a Virtual Conflict Ends in Real Death, as a leading Lineage II player allegedly stomps another to death. Ironically, the person who died was trying to break up the fight, which started because the two player clans were rivals or something.
This isn’t the first time this has happened, of course, though it’s the first time I’ve seen it reported in Russia. There have been Korean and Chinese cases previously. I guess it’s spreading.
It’s going to be interesting over the next few years to watch good and bad press about virtual worlds try to outrace each other in different territories.
