Online Gaming Explained

By Lia Lyn


Parents! Have you ever wondered what your children mean when they start saying things like "RPG" or "MMORPG"? If this is your case, you're not alone. "RPG" and "MMORPG" aren't new text messaging acronyms, they are abbreviations for some online games and this article is going to introduce you to them.

You are on the right track if you thought about the Internet when you heard those terms. "MMORPG" and "RPG" terms are exclusive to online environment and stand for "massively multiple online role playing gaming" and "role playing games". The online gaming is basically an opportunity to play interactive games on the Internet with people all over the world. Today's generation is practically fascinated with online gaming!

Accessible to anyone with a computer and fast Internet connection, there are thousands of online games available to play by anyone. Sometimes they are free and sometimes you need to pay to get in. They range from very easy to strange and more complicated. One thing that they all have in common however is that they are fun to play.

The role playing games require an extensive amount of time spend online, because the players assume the role of a game character in a play. The player is supposed to build up skills and tools and then interact with other characters. The acquiring of weapons takes time; nothing can be actually accomplished in a few minutes. The online role playing games can become extremely addictive and, depending on the complexity of the game, a person could spend up to several months at a game.

The role playing games require and encourage strategic thinking, but as parents, you may not be comfortable with the amount of time your children consume with playing these kinds of games.

My best advice to you is to learn about these games along with your child and play together. It can be a lot of fun ! much fun!
