Known as essentially the main characters of Tolkien's books, Hobbits are an interesting bunch that have been admired and copied in stories for generations. They are a race of small home-bodies that prefer a good meal, good ale and a nap to most other activities. In some circles variations are known as Halflings, Bobbits or Kender, but despite being a "branch" of the race of Man, these peaceful hole-dwellers have very distinctive features that set them apart from most others in Middle-earth.

If you consider MMORPGs totally objectively, they are not fair games. Damion has a comparison with baseball, but in baseball one team doesn't get to go out on the field and play and score while the other team is still sitting in their offices working. "Achievement" in MMORPGs is very much linked to time spent in game, and as some players spend a lot more time in game than others, comparing their achievements is inherently unfair. Of course RMT is still cheating, and overcoming one sort of unfairness by trying to balance it with another sort of unfairness is never going to achieve a fair result. Lots of people call me pro-RMT, a label I can just shrug off. I'd prefer to call myself anti-pseudo-achievement.

Recently, Heavy Duty's developers were so busy working on their brainchild that they did not have an opportunity to share the latest news. However, in spite of obstacles and difficulties, Akella's PR people managed to catch one of the game developers, Yuri Dubinchuk. They found him in the depths of the Quant Games studio, and had an opportunity to ask him a few questions.

I think where the industry is going in the next few years is a gradual broadening of the capabilities and the use cases of virtual worlds, to support a lot of different stuff that people are doing in the virtual worlds. I do believe, as I said today, that it’s difficult for me to see why it won’t be the case in a few years’ time that virtual worlds are not used for a very broad set of utilities and use cases and that that will bring them into a place of probably dominant use in the computing environment, meaning that more network traffic and more computers are basically deployed to enter and interact in virtual worlds than we are, for example, using them for the web today.

While Marvel's own MMO title never got it off the ground, its DC counterpart (DC Universe Online) seems to be having more success as Sony Online Entertainment recently revealed some first-look screenshots of the game. Based on the artwork of world-renowned artist Jim Lee, the in-game images certainly capture the flavor of the DC universe in all its stylized comic book glory.

Peter Nyester: Keeping the best traditions of the series, providing wide range of diverse possibilities for the players were always in focus during design of missions and game mechanics. One of the most interesting new features to help that is the Upgrade System. Beside having many different units, now we can customize all of them with special upgrades differing from unit to unit changing their abilities and skills. You can have more armor, better or different gun, greater speed, longer firing range, specialties like repairing or mine detection just to name some. It's a useful feature on the battlefield for reacting quickly to various situations and enemy strategies.

The latest edition of Warhammer Online's Grab Bag feature is up, and as well as a question-and-answer segment, we are treated to the first part of a feature on PvE dungeons, written by content developer Gary Astelford. A couple of the questions are directed at Open RvR; we're told to keep an eye out for some changes that will "make zone control more intuitive and rewarding" in the future. The new Easy PQ system is also asked about, and we learn that although the influence bonus for getting to the next stage of a PQ will be less (past Stage 2), all other influence gains are the same as a normal PQ. Oh, and those fancy statues that the top players have built in their honor to reflect the leaderboards? Expect enemies to be able to smash them down if the city becomes contested.

The world of Vana'diel dishes out perma-bans. The world of any MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) is a strange place. It's a universe governed by its own social customs, laws of language and unique economic fluctuations.
