No, there aren't any that graphical MUDs that can equal the depth of text MUDs currently, but there are certainly graphical MUDs that rise above the irritating teenagers-using-haxor-speak-and-talking-about-lame-gangster-rap. You just have to look beyond the huge corporate products. Check out the revived Meridian 59 () or Underlight (). My apologies if this sounds like an advertisement, but it's not. I'm not involved with either of those products, and haven't played them beyond just checking them out for research purposes. The graphics are pretty crap, but the gameplay is far superior to the biggest graphical products like Lineage or Everquest. (Of course, Lineage's graphics and game design are beyond awful, but it still manages to be the most popular MUD in the world).
