MxO, Over? Nothing is over until WE say it is!

I think we need a little inspiration!  WHO'S WITH ME???

That was a very welcome burst of positivity.

I would follow Bruce Campbell to the gates of Hel and back again.

I'm fully inspired. Now. Which way to the carnage? 

YES!

HUZZAH!

"Because we choose to."

I actually had this exact same thought while rewatching the trilogy last week.

SOE:   Why, MxO Player? Why do you do it?  Why jack in?  Why keep subscribing?  Do you believe you're fighting for something?  For more than your relief of boredom?  Can you tell me what it is?  Do you even know?  Is it content?  Or development?  Perhaps a Producer's Letter?  Yes?  No?  Could it be for love of the franchise?  Illusions, MxO Player.  Vagaries of perception.  The temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify a game that is without meaning or purpose.  And all of them as artificial as the Matrix Online itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love for MxO.  You must be able to see it, MxO Player.  You must know it by now.  You can't win.  It's pointless to keep fighting.  Why, MxO Player?  Why?  Why do you persist?

MxO Player:  Because I choose to.

ftw

And then, the MxO subscribers commit suicide in order to defeat SOE and restart the Matrix Online.

Free will.

Because I want to believe that there is still a Ghost in this Shell of a game, and I don't mean the bald guy in the off-white suit.

And mainly because I can't let go of the connection.

Emphasis.

This may have some bearing on the current silence from SOE regarding the future of MxO.

Indeed, my toasted friend.

Too bad the same can't be said for SOE or WB

How many poeple still play this game

I just subbed last night, I see a game that might really have some potential if it were to get some love.

I saw quite a few level 50s just hanging out around one of the lowbie zones (have no clue where, as I was mostly lost the entire time)... so there has to be something left, right?

I am not a fan of Fantasy based MMOs, so any game like this is a bonus for me.  I wonder... did they just let this game get run into the ground, or did it not get a  strong enough following?

I'll be here muddling about, maybe even level a few times, as soon as I figure out how to actually play.

It's a shame, really.

I've only made it to level 5, but its such a nice change of pace so far.  I don't have any idea what the endgame is like, but so far, with a little love and some polish this could be (and so far is) a really deep immersive game.

To me, this universe holds a lot of potential in that it has such an open storyline.  Since the world is based on code and isn't real, the sky is really the limit as far as new content that could be added.  This is also true of another MMO that I play, and they have really taken that as an advantage.  The fantasy based games, in my opinion, not so much.

The players and community in the "other MMO" that I play, have been very good at taking the content given to them and stretching it and finding interesting ways to make content within the content.  Last night I was running missions for Mercury and a couple of RPers were doing just that.

It was nice to have some interesting dialogue to read between missions.  So far it seems like the community is strong despite "being forgotten and unloved".  I am interested to see what lies in store.
