More homeless Sims: interview with creatorJune 18th, 2009 |
On CrunchGear, of all places.
Why is this important now? After all, MMORPGs give you real human interaction on a grand scale. Why simulate it?
While I am a huge fan of the potential of virtual worlds, I don’t think this kind of experimenting could be done in an online environment using other players. MMOs aren’t a recreation of life as The Sims is. Nobody is in danger of starvation, nobody is living a difficult life in a virtual world, and if you tried roleplaying it, you wouldn’t get genuine responses.
