I think it's kind of an oversight to not mention the Achaea MUD because the immersion and the full-time role play that game demanded really showed how someone could stay in character.
That was the one I fell in love with for years, Avatar was a fun hack-n-slash though.
I heard of GemStone before. It had a subscription, right? At the time I couldn't do more than donate time-to-time so that wasn't an option for me. Yay for people who even know the term MUD!
It's really fun to get caught "off guard" with role play and go with it instead of saying "LOL sorry my character isn't here." and CC is really good at that.
Yes! It did, and still does, unfortunately with a monthly price on par with most MMO subscriptions. More than my FFXIV sub, which is a bit ludicrous - but RP is encouraged and to some extent enforced, and most people generally RP all actions, whether they're sitting around picking locked treasure boxes for folks or just chatting in one of the towns' central square.
