Yes, I’m Sure You Have Some Tremendously Witty And Not At All Racist Comment Involving Farmers

Gamasutra has notes from an interesting talk on the history and nature of the Chinese MMO market.

In explaining some of the essential characteristics of the Chinese online gamer, Singman cited Deutsche Bank/iResearch findings on exactly why Chinese gamers want to play online games. According to the research, 16.44% of respondents want to do it to meet new friends, 15.60% to get special game items, 11.54% to accomplish missions, 9.90% to explore new game zones, 8.94% want PK (player versus player) ability, and 8.81% to ‘become a master’.

    So does that mean the other 28.77% want to farm?

    I have no idea what “become a master” refers to, nor do I ever, EVER wish to have it explained to me.

    As Buddha said, “The true master is the one that does not play the game.”

    In addition, it was noted: “PK is almost a must for Chinese MMORPGs” – definitely not the case for the North American or even the Japanese market, where player killing is not a major factor in an MMO game’s success.
