Mnemosyne, LLC. Opens for Business and Revives ROE

A Grassroots Organization is Established to Provide Ongoing Content and Community Development for “Rubies of Eventide” MMORPG

Ridgewood, NJ (PRWEB) August 8, 2004

Mnemosyne LLC. opens its doors for business! Founded by two former Cyber Warrior, Inc. developers, partners Jeff Grubb and Julia Howe hope to revive the dream that is Rubies of Eventide mmorpg. Mr. Grubb describes his impetus for opening the Phoenix server, “The hardcores were pinging our game servers ever since Cyber Warrior closed. Daily, people were looking for their game to come home to… we had to do something!”

Mnemosyne’s philosophy comes as good news for former players as well as new recruits. The modest company hopes to keep Rubies free to play with fund-raising drives for major purchases. Run like a virtual village, Rubies of Eventide relies on player donations, volunteerism, and the creative contributions of its conscious community. "Essentially, this model helps create a more responsible gaming environment where players can take pride in the community they belong to,” comments Julia Howe, "we listened to what our customer base was asking us to provide and discovered that it was much more cost-effective to tap into the skills of our players than to do everything in-house. This means we can create more content value for less – and make available an excellent venue for our players to showcase their talents to the gaming community.”

About Rubies of Eventide:

Rubies of Eventide is a promising example of change in the MMORPG industry. As a second generation massively-multiplayer game, Rubies defies the “Everquest” template by bringing back the classic strategic RPG turn-based combat, with a twist. Rubies unique combat mode is an “asynchronous real-time turn-based hybrid combat.” For players this means planning moves strategically with more attention to tactical rather than split-second decisions. Rubies of Eventide has seven player races and over 100 starting professions to choose from. With this system, no one is ever locked into a stereotypical role based on his or her choice of race and can develop their skills in-game, however they please.

Featuring:

  • Unique turn-based strategy combat mode.
  • No racial limitations on any of the 7 player races or 104 professions.
  • A progressive skill-based advancement system.
  • Nonlinear quests that may or may not involve combat.
  • Parties with up to 10 players.
  • Switch between 3rd and 1st person perspectives.
  • A Faction/Reputation system that keeps track of your diplomatic relations with
  • NPC Factions, player-character clans, and guilds as well as your individual average reputation.
  • Summoned pets.
  • Crafting and Gathering skills.
  • Hidden zones and magic gates that respond to changing time and seasons.
  • Over 100 professions to choose from or build your own custom-skilled adventurer!
