Silicon Valley has become a vehicle to secure VC funding. They've forgotten that is just step 2.

Those apps are already proven insecure, you might as well use SMS and take advantage of the interopabily.

I don't mind paying for things when the value proposition is there. Just in entertainment, the prices get skewed way outside value.

My fear is we won't ever see it because a game like that gives so much control to the players and the crafting/economy and skill system really stains back end databases.

It would be interesting to see what a modern dev could tack onto the concepts. SWG was weak on quests and end game content. You wouldn't have to make it WoW in that regard, but it could use some of that. Or with the rise of "cozy" games, what extra decorations that could be added.

Hell, take the game system and pull Star Wars out of it. Space games do appeal to the community.
