Understanding Terms Related To Space MMO Culture

By Aaliyah I. Herzog


The culture of space MMO games might appear odd to people who are not fans of this unique gaming genre but in reality that culture is growing rapidly as more and more players log on. There are literally millions of players signed up for massively multiplayer online games around the world, making this a big part of the modern gaming industry. The developers that dedicate themselves to create and manage these games have to constantly stay on top of changes in the game since the game's servers are constantly running and players can log into the game 24 hours a day from distinct parts of the world. Cultures are now forming around MMORPG games because new communities of gamers are being built both inside and outside the game world where new expressions and behavior are taking over.

Gamers can easily be drawn away from a popular space MMO game if its content were to suddenly become dull, too predictable, or just overly cyclical; constant changes must be made. In an effort to udate game play and force players to reconsider their approach to their favorite MMORPG, designers often send out updates that buff or nerf specific in-game character classes. Buffing indicates that the stats of that class is improved, perhaps by changes that developers make to the characters' skills and abilities. Though certain classes are buffed, others are nerfed in that their skill sets are limited and some of their advantages are taken away through changes to the game.

Most space MMO games use a leveling system to help you track your progress through the game and gauge your character's abilities against those of other players. One of the ways that this is done is through grinding, which means fighting one enemy after another in an effort to gain experience and move up to a higher level. While it is not usually a favorite part of online gaming, grinding is considered to be one of the basic elements of all MMORPG's and is a very common term amongst gamers.

One of the most appealing parts of online gaming for a large number of players is that they can talk to one another as they play through chat interfaces built into the game. Each game has its own chatting culture, including abbreviations that refer to locations, enemies, and items in the game those players are sure to learn as they play.

Space MMO games are so well-liked that they have literally developed their own culture. When you begin playing an MMORPG, you might be surprised by how quickly you become a part of the culture, too.
