Recently I’ve had a go at the good old MUD.

10 hours into play i’m an orc, that is ‘brain dead’ and truly ‘hideous’. Great.

But in all seriousness it’s been interesting – I’m enjoying it. ‘How so? I’s text!’ I hear you say, but think about this – it actually works better than a modern MMO, just as a book is better than a slightly bad quality 3D animation.

I highly recommend to anyone that is interested to check out http://www.icesus.org (my favourite MUD – no product placement here ).

More soon, I promise.
