Garrulous Glaahk dave s Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Online text-based RPGs, similar to MUDs, but with more of a focus on RP and little to no hack-n-slash. An Avernum based game would be awesome. Anyone recommend any? Text-based online RPGs are hurting from the MMORPG boom, but they are still out there.

Unflappable Drayk Toby-Linn Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 I play Urban Dead but I don't think you would like it because it does have pvp....you play either a zombie or a human and of course both sides are against each other.

Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Hm... I mean, I would put Kingdom of Loathing close to that, as it's definitely not a standard MMORPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Quiconque Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 At this point, I think that turn-based games with real-time resource accrual (in KoL's case, the resources are turns) are their own little genre. But in any event gameplay is at the center of KoL, so it's really more like a MUD with a thriving social community than a MUSH or the like.
