Actually, I've never seen a text mud w here I was immediately hit with the differences between races more than in a graphical mud. If I walk up to you in SW:G and you're a wookie, man, do I know it. You're big, you're hairy, and you can't be missed.
On the other hand, why do more than that for the most part? Roleplayers are a fairly insigifnicat part of muds as a whole and the big games are going after the lowest common denominator. Phat L3wt anyone?
