TriadCity Message of the Day

TriadCity's College of Law is open for mayhem.

The law school is kind of an old-fashioned thing in TriadCity terms, hearkening back nostalgically to the days when RPGs were less sophisticated and everybody's idea of a good time was to kill a bunch of virtual law students. Oh, wait, that still is everybody's idea of a good time. Nevermind.

As an historical aside, the law school is one of the few areas from the original CircleMUD version of TriadCity which are being retained for this world. Long-term veterans may or may not be pleased to see it finally realized.

The area's not complete. There will be upper and lower floors added one day when the code base is ready for them.

Bring your best lawyer jokes for the graffiti boards and have at it.

"Let's be frank with ourselves. We all know that most people, most of the audience out there, is complacent. They are more than up for another evening in the reclining chair in front of a sitcom that teaches the same lessons that the one on last week did. They are very willing to settle for easy entertainment.

We call this "pop music." We call it "mass market." And games are indeed reaching this mass market, and I suppose that to a degree I am fighting the tide in arguing that that is not the ultimate destiny for games any more than it is for any other art form. The art we remember is material that opened up new vistas: whether or not it was popular at the time is largely an accident of history. Shakespeare ws a popular playwright and then was neglected for a couple hundred years. Popularity is not a measure of long-term evolutionary success."
