How do you make a sandbox MMO "fair"? Most would argue that you don't. EVE Online's senior producer had some interesting things to say about the game's economy. As it turns out, in an age of government intervention on a grand scale, CCP seems to find it far more interesting and freeing to let the players control large aspects of the game, rather than vice-versa.
How much control should players have over the game? Will future MMOs lean more toward "directed play"or sandbox-style gaming in the future? Thoughts on who should wear the MMO pants in today's Loading... Control Freak.
