What got me hooked is really the essence of the game itself. A multiplayer fantasy RPG with a global player base. It’s a really cool concept that I’ve enjoyed in many iterations. EQ, WoW, GW2 etc.
I just never really stopped playing this one. One of the things I love about MUDs is that it’s so easy to just have it running in another window. Killing a monster every 4 minutes during the work day. Chatting with folks and organizing groups while literally playing other MMOs.
I don’t think that I could play WoW on one screen and GW2 on another with any efficacy and I almost certainly wouldn’t enjoy it.
I’ve also really enjoyed the classes the game offers, the ability to multi class, and the reincarnation system which is similar to modern “prestige” systems. Except I can keep most of my earned exp while choosing an entirely different race and class combination.
MUD communities tend to be pretty great and this one has been no exception.
In regards to the screenshot “Mud age” is the same thing as /played or /age in MMOs. The amount of time spent logged in to the game.
