Original post by krez
i saw a news special the other night about "video games that encourage violence and racism"...("white law" was the game i think, made by some KKK loonies in colorado). either way, the game looked pathetic, i mean sub-wolfenstein-3d (the first one)quality.

Old news, The original game was called Ethnic Cleansing. White Law is the sequal.

The game uses the Genesis3D engine. Which is an OpenSource Engine. Without OpenSource, that game wouldn''t have existed.

Of course, it proves that now, with the Internet. Anyone can make a video game and sell it...

Adventuredesign: You really should start another thread. Anyway, you are making a rather interesting point.

Although I thik the problem is not so much that no game is that good but rather that game developers/publishers don''t see themselves that way. You just described the way customers who got copies of the everquest mapp looked. This sjows that the excitement is there. I know they are lots of games whose T-shirts and posters I''ll buy (don''t know about mugs though) but they just aren''t available.

A lot of games inspire a followership but then never bother to follow it up(Unless it''s with a sequel). but it would still be interesting to discuss ways of building and maintaining such a followership.

General FYI...
The Blizzard Warcraft 3 T-shirts are always all sold out online...
