Yes! 1 consistent global universe would get me to jack into whatever matrix they were selling.

It could even be multiple games connected with sufficient break in context. Eve for space and another game for ground assault. But they actually interact live.

Then throw in next gen VR and you basically have ready player one.

I can't help but share the MMO we're working on that fits that mold! https://www.seed-online.com

EVE is by the way also working on an FPS, Vanguard. Which is supposed to interact with the game world of EVE.

CCPs previous FPS DUST514 also linked with EVE. All the resources were in the EVE economy and ships could perform orbital bombardments. Although it mostly demonstrated how horrible it is to try to intertwine two very different games together!

I worked with Oddur and Ivar there quite a few years ago now so am looking forward to SEED!

I originally bought a PS3 to play Dust 514, and only got to play for a few months before it got shut down. I really like the concept of different games sharing state and universe. I hope they eventually crack this nuts.
