Simple....the reasoning depends on age group. 18 and under will want to because they've played one and it's cool. They have a lot of ideas that they would like implemented but because the game they are playing is closed source, the next logical thing to do is make your own. I mean after all...it will run on just about any hardware out there. DSL should be able to handle the traffic also. :)

19 and over is for the same reason as the 18 and under but they also see $$$. They think "hey, they are making $15 a month from me, there are 1 million subscribers. That = 15 million dollars!!!". Forgetting that most of that will be spent acquiring the equipment and connections to run it and hiring people to maintain it.
I think you're being too harsh on vrage, paradoxnj.
Harsh!??? I have a kid telling me that my chosen profession is "easy". How he made an MMO in 15 minutes. :roll:
I know how to program with C++, but I have no idea how it was created nor do I know how can I create my own programming language. Does that mean I can't say that I know how to wirte programs with C++? I'm not saying that "Total Eclipse" is good, but if vrage wants to start off with that program let him do it
I never said not to try it. I said that the program was crap. VB6!?!? I mean...come on now.... Do you think WoW is made with VB6???? Hell no. It's very optimized C++ and Assembly code.

To me...when he can write the server software is when he will be almost as cool as Chuck Norris. :)

Ok now, let's not get carried away. If you're using "Total Eclipse" it won't be your game. Just like paradoxnj said. And you can't make a game from scratch in 15 minutes. It took me a lot of time just to make my program draw triangles when I enter proper coordinates.

Who said 15 Minutes?????????

I took more than 15 days to get everything in order....I still have to map now!

And I think I'm going to change my game name....Make it something original.....

15 days aren't such a long time either. Don't mind what I'm telling. I'm a crappy game developer and have no experience, but listen to what paradoxnj and others are saying. They are experienced.
