#1 im not wrong. I know exactly what MMO means.
#2 I have said something in several posts and all of you have missed it. I cant make you open your eyes and read it correctly. You need to read and understand what IS being said and not what you THINK is being said.
#3 You guys should go to the Hell levels myth thread. You would all get along with the OP very well.

That's questionable.

Meridian 59 was the only early graphical MMORPG I never played, was the before The Realm? I remember playing the crap out of The Realm long before UO was around, I can't recall if it came out before or after Meridian 59 though.

I played Meridian, it was awful and more or less a slide show on my comp at the time. Believe it or not, its still up! http://www.meridian59.com/

Whether it predated the realm or not I really can't say, but I am pretty sure it predated NWN, and I did mean the AOL one.

EDIT: The entry you quote probably refers to the Neverwinter Nights that was available over AOL circa 1991, not the later game of the same name. (End Edit)

If you don't restrict yourself to role-playing games, then you have graphical/realtime MMOG's from fall 1987 onwards with "Air Warrior" on GENIE. Yes, 1987, with an "8." Some players on P1999 weren't born yet.

Heh yeah, I remember hearing about air warrior, although I never played it. The timelines I was referring to were specifically about RPG's tho.


AND HELLS YEAH WE NEED BONUS EXP


**EDIT***

Here is a really interesting presentation about the early history of MMO's :

Not mad. Just surprised about how blind people are.

Plus, i believe your last post was aimed at someone else. you need to reread this thread.

Not all games fit "multiuser" or "dungeon."
