hi ive been exploring your web site and mail lists and find the majik project exiting I have a few questions though. Q1 i understand that the client for Majik is open source and thus free for download but i was wondering will access to the server cost money. I mean if after the game is running it will take some serious bandwidth to serve up the game to possibly thousands of clients. that costs money. will you just use ads to pay for it or will it be pay as you play? Q2 I noticed that the map is very large. My concern for this is that is it so large that a player will never run into another player. Especialy if they are exploring more remote areas of the majic world. I might be a little premature in this assesment but i would hate to be the only player in a remote area controlled by some diety and constantly pushed into service by that deity. Q3 this might also be a little pre mature but i was wondering what kind of AI can a player expect from NPC's. If a player is in a remote area where other PC's are rare interacting and getting information from NPC's could get tediouse if not implemented in a novel way.
