The Adventurer

Everybody loves to play games that includes role playing, being able to portray such characters adds a little excitement to the game. Nowadays people like to play online RPG's (Role Playing Games) exploring the different aspects of the world created by the game. The thrill of being an adventurer and making your character/avatar powerful by completing quest's and gathering rare items is such an achievement that players around the world enjoys. There are a lots of concepts and ideas for a new theme of RPG's adding a little twist on the story-line or adding some rare items that a player must seek, every role playing games uses different weapons and classes like swordsman, archer, blacksmith and even priests. The evolution of role playing games is quite fascinating because new world means new adventure and the larger it gets the happier the players are, in every updates and patches people are excited to try new things and new items that is promised by the game creators. What interest me the most is the progression of RPG from a single player adventure now to MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games) which they call  the "MMO". Players compete, cooperate and help one another to reach a goal. Some players do duels or PVP (Player Vs. Player) a mode that challenges your skills and also your item sets by fighting with another player, another mode is the "Party" mode teaming up with other players to complete quest's and task's given like destroying a boss monster or protecting a single village. The most interesting players that i had been interacting with is the "good samaritans" the good samaritans are players that helps novice or beginners all through out the game or all through out a single dungeon. Helping others to level-up or to fight monsters is the way of the good samaritans. In MMO you can meet different people with different nationality and cultures, making new friends at the same time.

The type of game which people around the world can interact with one another is very fascinating, it's connecting people/gamer's around the world exchanging thoughts and experiences all through out. Today all of the MMO games are played with either computers or consoles, nowadays graphics is the thing makes a game wonderful. Having the high end PC and consoles is way expensive and that is why some players are limited to play games with low requirements, but what if there is no console and pc when you play MMO what if it is virtual. Imagine a world that you can actually feel everything a virtual world when you can interact without any console used, A world that you and only you control your own self and you are the avatar of your own you'll just where a gear that will get you connected to the game rather to the world that your playing in. That excites me because that idea is not impossible anymore, we have the resources and the advanced tool's we are the new era every idea is possible, that's why i wouldn't be surprised if MMORPG becomes virtually playable.
