Something unexpected. In chargen. In the first time I try to fight a mob. In my first rp interaction. In the equipment I have on. Something unexpected, but interesting, well done, and intriguing.
That is what will make me try a game out. And continuing to have such experiences, be they code based, character based or immortal/GM/wizard based, until I have reached that happily addicted state, is what keeps me on a MU**.
(Edited to comment: Yeah yeah, I know, I am supposed to put what I do not like in a MU**. But I was feeling positive today, so deal ::wink:  |
