I spent so many hours playing MUDs. I haven't found a type of game that comes close to the immersion and community of MUDs. I checked in on my old MUD a few years ago. Still there like an old friend. But, it was a ghost town. Maybe 10 active players at peak hours. It was maybe 100 in the day.

One of my early programming forays was being a wizard for a MUD I enjoyed. A code base that allows small communities to pop up around building and playing a world together is something I have not seen since my MUD days. It is my hope that Hytale, with its integrated modding tools and server, will fill the niche of community developed game worlds.
