    JC - This game is not Ready Player One....

    Couple of things I picked up from listening to the interview and what people have said here. 

     

    This Easter egg hunt was in one key way the opposite of Ready Player One.

     

    Three Org leaders with hundreds of players in their Orgs were principal Gunters, they also involved players in their Orgs. 

     

    That does not really equate with RPO (where a small band of plucky individuals, not Corporation leaders) are the heroes.

     

    Amusingly it also sounds like Whitemeat (around 22-24 minutes in) reveals that Knoober betrayed his own Org members by selling out that they were close to the discovery, so DSI reinforcements were brought in to blockade and destroy ships. Interesting leadership choice that. Congrats f you're an Infinity Corp member that got your ship trashed that weekend. 

     

    If I'm wrong about that and IC were told in back channels to stay away, fair play, but that's not how the interview sounds. :)

     

    For clarity, I'd also joined Wayfarers, as a new player during Beta, and can say players were openly encouraged to find and discover the artifacts, but not spoon fed the keys to solving the puzzle. 

     

     

    @Mornington Be careful what you are suggesting here without knowing the details.  But since you brought this up, I had already made it onto Lacobus past the blockade AND warned Infinity Corp about the blockade AND had already entered into negotiations with Whitemeat and the other "gunters" to join them in our efforts when I had announced to them that we were close to having the entire puzzle.  I took the risk personally instead of putting my org members in danger.

     

     

    Don't assume you know what is going on with limited information from the interview. Its called strategy and diplomacy and both worked perfectly, with zero IC ships being destroyed, and a share of the Thoramine in our vault.
