What would your ideal game with the premise of "playing an abandoned online game" be?
I think the most interesting is dealing with another actual player in game. Like, 1 or two that appear mostly never, but the fact that sometimes they're there is eerie. If you watched the vinensauce active worlds exploration video you know what i'm talking about. When it's so abandoned and you find someone you don't really know what to think out of it, so you may think it's a bot, a dev, a player, there are a lot of space for creativity in this premise.
