If you really asked me, in my heart of hearts, how long it would be around? 70 years. Games are the books of the future. No matter how old the get, people will still play them. My guess is 70 years since, by that point, computers may actually have trouble reading such an old script.

Dying doesn't mean the game will be stopped playing.  Dying is when the game loses popularity.  Is Starcraft dead? yes.  But is it still being played?  Yes.  However, 70 years is too farfetched.  There haven't been any electronic games that have existed 70 years to even compare that with.

O.o....Are you kidding me? Starcraft dead? I'm sorry, I have to LOL at that one.

Do you have ANY idea how huge Starcraft is n China, Korea, and the US? Its phenomenal, even now. Hundreds of thousands of people are playing it at any given time, that's not exactly dead to me.

As for comparison, no, I don't, however....Theres just no reason it would be dead. Like I said, whats fun is fun, just because something gets old people won't stop playing it.

I'd have to agree with you MWright967, RO1 will always be around. UO has been around for 10years and still has a decent playerbase. As for SC? It isn't updated anymore but still has a huge playerbase. They often televise tournaments LIVE in Korea. Just my 2 cents on the subject.



''ruler of heaven and earf..and every got damn thang in between''.

<digitalhamster> problems that are solved when i return are always the best problems.

I think 2~3 years, maybe less.
I took a look at RO2, it looks decent, but still too much like WoW.
I like the current RO as it is, however, the story must go somewhere, and Gravity wanted to step up their game.
RO personally is boring to me, the only reason I stick on it is because I need something to do and I have no other way of contacting friends.
My position on neRO is more of a job for me, I work it more than 40 hours a week, so that in mind, would explain why RO has come to be boring to me after playing it for 1 full year (exactly 1 year ago, but I left it for 5 months when I was in military school). If you keep reading a book over and over again, eventually you will want to stop in mid-sentence and throw the book in the fireplace.

I am going to be looking into Second Life soon, I listen to my dad and his friends talk about it while he is playing, maybe testing I dunno, Vanguard. Apparently, you can make a lot of money off of that game, enough that one man pays his mortgage with his earnings. That being said, I think I may find a second job there xD. $_$
