Re: Do MUDs need to be "brought into the 21st century"

I was thinking about this after reading the recent responses to my LFM thread. There are a lot of F2P MMORPG games out there, and they offer what a lot of no-RP MUDs have along with music and graphics. A lot of the players of those MMORPGs are willing to shell out money for micropayments to get an edge in equipment, abilities, and levels. Ask them if they'd try out a MUD which offers more or less the same thing, and they'll say "no" because there's no graphics in a MUD.

I figure the trick is to offer what no other multiplayer game offers. In a gaming world of free games with modern graphics a mere download away, why would someone want to play a MUD?
