We don't want people playing this game 40 hours a week. We don't want people to become obsessed with it. We want them to say, "I wonder what's going to happen tonight?" So we're scheduling events. You can also take pictures of where you are and send the images to friends in the game.


Wow. This may actually usher in gaming's Third Age: where not only is whether the game is fun not the point, developers are now making sure that their game isn't too fun. Thanks, Rand! We can't handle how fun most games are!
