Today we feature an in-depth interview with the CEO of Runestone Lars Kroll Kristensen. He and his company are hard at work on the upcoming non-violent MMORPG Seed. Our Garrett Fuller asked him a slew of questions in this three page interview. We are also carrying five exclusive screenshots from the title.

MMORPG.com: What type of in-game economy does Seed have planned for its players?
Lars Kroll Kristensen: The afore mentioned administrators can set up sharepoints on their hardpoints. A share point is a sort of shop, where you can access and make available items and components. The game world uses a pseudo currency called “Access points” which is similar to money, but with the key difference that at least one party in a transaction involving access points must be democratically elected.
Players cannot directly trade access points, although they can barter items freely. The idea is to have a capitalist economy but tightly controlled by democratically elected representatives. |
