Amethyst Jetaime Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 No that's been going on for a while, so that's not it. Its just a trial offer type of thing. Newbs can get a lot and pay no tier for a couple weeks, then teir kicks in. The land on is private estates and not owned by LL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
161488303349 Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 i was reading on arianeb blog. she do quite a lot of research and commentary on 3vws on a post "3D Virtual Worlds vs. MMORPGs" she said: (have chopped out the bits i think are important) "I have spent 9 years exploring 3D Virtual Worlds, and 8 years playing MMORPGs. For the longest time they felt like two different experiences. 3D Virtual Worlds are a creative outlet, while MMORPGs are a mostly cooperative gaming experience. It seems that recently they have been merging." "In the last couple of years, the growth in 3D gaming has been in free to play MMORPGs. Not only do they attract a crowd with new gaming experiences, they have co-opted the social model of the 3D Virtual Worlds, creating central meeting places, and free “bases” you can decorate and host private gatherings. They also have special interest groups you can join in game to meet like minded people." "“user created content” is in and of itself the thing that attracts many to 3D Virtual Worlds in the first place." "content creators are seriously outnumbered by both socializers (especially since most content creators are also socializers), and gamers. Now that MMORPGs are working to appeal to both of the latter groups, it is only the content creators who feel that 3DVWs are the better way to go. For everyone else, there is simply more things to do in an MMORPG." + this an important conclusion i think "3D Virtual Worlds are in a slow decline. It is the competition with free to play MMORPGs that is doing it. The MMOs are incorporating the stuff that makes 3DVWs popular. If they are to survive, the 3DVWs need to start incorporating what makes MMOs popular. They are just starting to do that. The merging of the two genres seems inevitable." + seems like linden has come to the same conclusion. so experience permissions and mmorpgs capability for user/creators is why i think linden is maybe making a mmorpg-like entrance to SL for newbies. like a showcase of what is possible. which is world viewer educational as well. with quick portal exit outs to normal SL for them that not want to play a mmorpg game to get started if they arent then i dont know why not. is what i would do anyways if i owned sl + can find arianeb here: http://arianeb.wordpress.com/2012/05/06/3d-virtual-worlds-vs-mmorpgs/ is some good stuff on that blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LL is interested in how to extend and improve the Premium Wilderness sims. Some residents received a survey on this a few weeks ago which asked us about how the Wilderness and general Premium experience could be improved, and what it needed to attract repeat visits. I assume they are still working on those permissions and pathfinding features. Sounds like the moles are all off doing something, anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

161488303349 Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 can see your point just say that marketing and promotions people draw images of stuff. engineers actual make stuff + philip linden wanted to make some kinda zen utopia something something. he didnt really know exactly. neither did we at the time m linden wanted to make a reallife like connection and relationship. he knew exactly what he wanted to make. it just wasnt what we wanted much at all rodvik linden wants to make entertainment and he is actual making it now + if we dont want rodvik-like entertainment or m-like connections or philip-like utopia then we pretty much stuffed i think. not linden lab, us is not rodvik who will fail. same like M not fail or philip even. they didnt fail. we give/gave them a Fail rating if we give rodvik a Fail as well then will be game over. linden will end it i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
