Warhammer to erect (virtual) statues of top players

Over on Boing Boing Offworld, our John has the news that Warhammer Online is planning to erect (virtual) statues of the top players in prominent places.


Mythic's introducing a rather cool little addition to Warhammer Online, aimed at making outstanding players feel more like ineluctable legends of the game lore. Starting with patch 1.1, Mythic will reward the top ten players on each realm with statues of their characters in the main city centers.

I think it's a nice little touch. MMORPGs need more of these sorts of gestures to the player, incorporating their deeds and heroism into the fabric of the game lore to both inspire and garner the jealousy of their fellow players.
