Metro, one of the biggest daily newspapers in Sweden wrote today a huge 2 page article about the cultural phenomena called MMO and MMORPG. They mention more or less all known and unknown, new and old MMORPG’s including some role playing based chat services. They Describe them shortly what they are about and how they work. They even touch the area RCE (real cash economy). For two whole large tabloid pages this article was really interesting. But not once, ever, do they mention Entropia Universe. I just a little while ago called Metro and got to speak to one of the co-editors and asked how come they didn’t bring up a Swedish MMORPG product in a Swedish newspaper. He explained that they had done some brief research on Entropia Universe, but couldn’t figure out what it was or how to define it. Further he explains that they where confused about statements like “It’s not a game, it’s a service” and “It’s more then a game”, so they decided to leave it out. That is about how insignificant we are in the jungle of MMORPG’s.
Over and out, e-lite. |

What do you expect for a Company that not even has a own Forum for the Users of their Service?
Or maybe there are some users of this Service in the Metro Team who thought: Lets give EU and MindArk the same thing back they give to their customers: Ignorance |

Seems MA's own fault for wanting to be on the same level as SL. Add the fact that a newspaper that has its facts straight has yet to be created, and you end up with being left out.

Read that article too just now...
Thought about contacting them, but good someone else did it before so I don't have too ![]() I don't have that much confidence in the journalist that wrote that article though... Have read a lot of stuff of his that have been very... "incomplete" and confused/confusing... Very shallow research usually. But what do you expect from someone that calls himself a "Youtube correspondent"... ![]() |

thats quite astonishing from both sides. Its a bit like them doing a piece on cars and not mentioning Saab because they were confused as they make aircraft. But then Saab dont say "we dont make cars".
