Survival MMO with politics sounds interesting

[< blank >]

Wheter this is the game or not: Someone who does this right will make for a very interesting game. Do you think they will make it?

Think it is high chance of success because of the pressure from leasing a popular trademark

the problem is leaving the politics to the players. there wont actually be any real politics, will just be mega companies threatening small companies demanding they give them everything or die. in order to have a political game there has to be a checks and balances system.

Lets hope there are checks and balances. They spoke about storm at PvP areas where basically everything is demolished. Sounds like fresh start kinda thing.

Eve online would disagree.

Politics is basically zerg. Would be fun but sadly its nearly impossible in video games.

There won't be any real politics, don't get your hopes up too high.

Politics = Money + Unity. With those means any diplomat or spy can change the landscape in regards to a Player driven economy. Kanley and Misinformation have already been mentioned by the devs so NPC diplomacy checks aren't off the table.

Having NPC factions on political scene can help balance.
