Game Details The Caves is an online role playing game with similarities to EverQuest and Ashron's Call.  The main difference is the scope of the game.  With the MMORPGs are focused on thousands of players per 'world', The Caves will be focused more on smaller worlds with players numbering in the hundreds.  The main idea is that a small group of friends should be able to work together to accomplish any task. Goals we ARE striving for: Smaller, friendlier community Minimal to no monster competition/spawn camping Dynamic economy where players determine supply and demand based on actions The ability to play the entire game alone or with a group Things you will NOT see: Uber-monsters requiring 40+ players to defeat Pointless skills only used as money sinks Random monsters carrying inappropriate items You may be wondering why two guys would even bother to create such an ambitious project. Basically, two reasons. The first: To see if we can. The second: To have a game that we control. In the commercial MMORPGs out there, the game is structured to keep as many people playing (and paying!) for as many months possible. While there is nothing wrong with this model from a corporate point of view, we as RPG fans would like something more. This is our attempt at it.
