freaker_TuC's Journal: China requires MMORPG players to take breaks

-- submitted @ slashdot --

Xinhua is reporting MMORPG players in China will be required to take two hour breaks inbetween their gaming sessions. Players who spend more than three hour online at one time will loose experience points and weapons; more than five hours online will reset the character back to level 1. This will affect gameplay and quests to break up because the timelimit of your fellow players could be exceeded requiring them to log out not to mention the longer quests like "Zul'Farrak" in World of Warcraft.
