I`00like the ability to create and expand
on a character, i.e., the grungy old
HabiHermit, RJScott.
Developing the character in the way
that I`00have permits me a freedom that
most other testers lack -- the freedom
to ignore others and not have them
think any more of it than "oh...it's
just that old hermit again. Don't pay
any attention to him.
I`00also enjoy exploring new areas, and
of course finding treasures (or junk
for hocking) here and there along the
way.
I`00appreciate (but seldom take advantage
of), the additional graphics that can
be utilized.
I enjoy reading the RANT with its
whimsical articles.

It's got to be the adventures. This
last one was GREAT.
.
Also, seeing NEW things.. like the
high-rise apartment building. That
was great.. very well done.
.
As long as there is something NEW in
Hab.. even if it is something minor,
I will be a happy camper.

The fact that there always seems to be
something to discover makes the game
very appealing to me. There's apparant-
ly a LOT of pictures crammed onto that
disk, and just when I thought I'd seen
it all, I find something new.
.
I especially like how versatile the
environment is. There seems to be very
little that can't be done in Habitat.
"Seeing" the people at the other end of
the modem is very refreshing, too. :)

being able to manipulate things.
it's a unique experience, being
connected to a remote world that I
can't touch any way other than through
a joystick and keyboard, yet I can
make lasting changes in that world.
.
even something as simple as opening
a door - the fact that I can open it,
and others see it open, and it stays
open until someone closes it, is
something new in the world.

I like the user interaction, I like
the fact that you can have an Avatar
made more or less the way you want it,
and can walk around HAB and be
recognised by thouse who know you.
Conversly, if you DONT want to be
recognised so quickly, you CAN change
the way your Avatar looks.

As stated before, discovering
new 'things', whether they be actual
things, or areas or abilities.
I haven't been around for the latest
'events', but the last thing that
really got me to go in and take a look
around was the addition of Commerce St.
Rd., Ave., whatever.
After roaming the same terrain for a
while and trying to 'DO' almost
everything in sight, without some
additional input, it got 'old'
very quickly.

Last time 'round I answered this by
discussing Hab's potential. I still feel
that this is something important.
Habitat is a precursor of the next phase
in computers. It is the locigal
extention of the philosophy that put a
Trashcan on a Mac and created GEOS, GEM,
Amiga Workbench and others.
From text to text/graphics to
text/graphics/animation.

The best thing about Habitat is
creating your person and having a
"visual" self. And being able to see
the "others" as you communicate.
