Dev Log 001 - “Do something you love."
Do something you love. Shardlands Dev Log 001.
General consensus is:
“Do something you love.”
This seems like sound advice.
Unfortunately, I love MMOs.
I miss that feeling they used to give me: running home after school, firing up ol’ Bessy, and disappearing into a fantasy world, wondering what adventures were waiting for me.
Whether through disappointing design trends, incalculable corporate greed, or some un-scratchable nostalgic itch, modern MMOs just don’t quite tickle my fancy.
And so, I have come to the questionable decision to forego a normal hobby and instead channel my midlife crisis into building one.
So, I present to you...
Shardlands.
At the moment, Shardlands is mostly a collection of ideas, systems, experiments, and an increasingly unreasonable list of things that apparently “would be cool.”
There is much to be done.
This may take a while.
Welcome to Shardlands.
