Incentive To Keep Playing MMORPGs?

Aug 23, 2003 Pyro link
I'm not sure if this belongs here or suggestions... Anyway, I found this article up on slashdot today...

Also, someone posted something in this thread that I found particularly interesting; it's about Asheron's Call, and how the players in it actually DID something (plotwise), instead of just leveling up, etc.

I don't think Vendetta is going to be faced with this problem since the game focuses more on you skill than on the amount of time you spend leveling up. There is always more to be done since very few people will ever reach the top. Although I think in game story elements like an invasion of Furies would be pretty badass.

And the Vendetta webstory is a perfect example of a great RPG... ^_^
