I pay up to $10 for a movie which is approximately 2 hours of
entertainment, or $5/hour. To have the equivalent entertainment, I
would have to see 41 movies in a year to equal the entertainment
value the game offered. 41!
I think people WOULD like to play other aspects of the game. But
why must they retain the other character? What's wrong with
starting over?

Heh. Uh, I'd like to spend 8 digits making a quality game with
vision that has lasting entertainment value over a long period of
time for the majority of the population, not only the powergaming
playstyle.

If I'm following you here, apparently one character's development
can't satisfy a player. Why not? Most characters aren't developed
enough to be believable -- provided the game has sufficient depth, a
player could develop a character tremendously in a year. And yes,
for $412 even. Why does having multiple characters somehow equate to
"getting your money's worth"?
To repeat what I said before: when did MCS become a RIGHT?

Games can accommodate this level of exploration -- just not to 100%.
You can develop your skills (just like I develop hobbies) that are
not part of your profession. But it is not the same as becoming a
whole other person.
The development of self, of a virtual body, of a consistent portrait
of another personality is built on a foundation of CONSISTENCY.
Multiple bodies, switching between characters, all degrade that
attachment to one character. I have no problem with exploring other
levels of the game's character development -- I do have a problem
with having multiple characters. What's wrong with having one
character and just developing his skills so he's "sort of" a
merchant, but not 100% good at it as someone that plays that role
full time? Why must a player be the absolute best at a role rather
than dabble in it (which again, mirrors real life)?

And I would submit that the average player, who works hard for a
year on certain achievements, is going to be severely pissed off
when Joe Powergamer beats him with one of his alternates and takes
those achievements away from him. In order to compete with Joe
Powergamer, I *HAVE* to use multiple characters too. The
competition increases, the game degrades, character development
suffers, and the powergaming style drives the other styles off.

It doesn't. Play them in a way where they interact, where one guy
gives the other guy his equipment, where a stormtrooper barges in
after a cantina owner is killed for some contrived revenge (really
the player getting revenge) and THEN it destroys the theme.

Powergaming IS fun. Trust me, that's how I beat Terminator: Dawn of
Fate. >:) Powergaming is HARMFUL to other playing styles. Given
enough time, I believe powergamers will not stay powergamers
forever. Powergaming is not the only style.
And really -- psychologically disjoined? Heh. Years ago, the
primary reason people ate at McDonalds was for the speed of service,
not the quality of the food. Wendy's came along and offered GOOD
TASTING food and went from the top 5 the #2 competitor. The so
called "psychologically disjoined" populace always existed, the
market research just wasn't looking for them.
I do not believe that "lots of money must mean we're right" is a
valid business model.

Not at all, with a sufficiently flexible character system (read, no
classes) it still offers the opportunity for character development.

The harsh lesson of the marketplace: a game dominated by powergamers
alone degrades the game and drives off the casual gamer.
MCS *IS* bad. I'm just reiterating the same argument over and over
so I'll do something different:
MCS -> degradation of character investment -> advantage to MCSers ->
forces other styles to go MCS to survive -> drives off other play
styles -> social networks degrade -> casual gamer stops logging in

No argument from me on that. Players are content. But who gets to
determine the majority of that content? Developers are not absolved
of that responsibility.

I haven't flown to South America. I learn about South America from
folks I work with who live there. They tell me all about it. When
we have a task detailing South American culture, that person's
knowledge is critical in getting it done. If I knew everything
about South America, I don't need that person on my team.
If I know everything, if I can be EVERYBODY, I don't need anybody
else. Why am I playing on a MMORPG, then?
Single-player games are quite accommodating to MCS. MMORPGs require
networks and people. If I can BE everybody, I don't need anybody.
I can certainly explore content I never PERSONALLY witness by
learning from other people about it. Again, this is what people do
in real life every day. Nothing sad about it -- indeed, it
increases the value of other people on the game.

We'd all like to be rich, popular, brilliant, strong, healthy, and
wise. An entire society built upon uberhumans is unlikely -- we
band together precisely because of our flaws.

BZZT. Says who? We have players on RetroMUD who have been on for
nearly 10 years.

And why do people "leave their friends behind"? Why can't your
"friends" play with you on the other server as other characters?

And where does this jump come from? Being fleeced? Based on what
evidence? That the game doesn't have the same generic free-for-all
style that other games have?

Human nature is to HAVE flaws. The proposition that everyone should
be able to be the best at everything all the time may be appealing
on a selfish scale, but it does not build a viable interactive
universe. We'd all like to have no flaws whatsoever -- but that
doesn't mean it's fun in the long term to be absolutely perfect.
This isn't "one man saves Metropolis" -- it's a MMORPG, with other
people.

I'd like to see the numbers on this.

This exact situation can be applied to a player with just one
character. When the player decides to cause mischief with his
primary character, a GM bans the account. End result: players are
more likely to 'be good.'
All I'm seeing is you added an extra step "looks up the secondary
character" and requiring staff involvement.

Anonymity of self depends on your ability to be tied to a particular
"face." MCS is multiple faces and thus creates anonymity. If one
face dies, I have others to hide behind. If I am solely represented
by one character, I have a much more powerful emotional and social
investment in that character. If I grief, it reflects on that one
character -- the single, precious character. With MCS, I have
multiple characters, have less investment in each, and chances are
use them only for certain situations or to explore certain roles, so
I don't mind as much if they die, if they go broke, etc.
