Re: Looking for MUD that allow bots

Technically you could say that for some games writing a bot is more meaningful than playing the game in the traditional manner.

Have you considered how many hours people put into MUDs just to level up? Time that could been put to learn something more useful.

In some MUDs the game is mostly about repeating the same set of commands {kill npc, loot npc, wear equipment} until you get to a certain level where you have completed the game. Not far from . There is a lack of meaningful play as it is mainly about repetition and often you learn very little from it. I think you would learn more from coding/building the game or making a bot.
