Former World of Warcraft and League of Legends veteran, Greg ‘Ghostcrawler’ Street, recently announced an MMO of his own called Ghost. But unlike the slew of ongoing live service games that seemingly beg you to log in every day in perpetuity, Street states that the team doesn’t want to give their player base FOMO as an incentive to come back. Ghost supposedly aims to slot into your life, not take it over.
Street said as much in studio Fantastic Pixel Castle’s first-ever AMA hosted on YouTube. One interested potential player submitted a question about “the soulless quest of optimization at the expense of social decency.” Essentially, they asked how the team planned to keep optimization from destroying the “social fabric of the game.”
