Memorials in Games

On a side note, one of the things I truly love about games is there capacity to become (arguably) eternal memorials to those that have died.

World of Warcraft has done this well, with a number of memorials to friends and loved ones of the developers.

I have had the great misfortune of experiencing two friends 'pass'.  One in a motorcycle accident (Jed Hicks) and another from 'misadventure' - which is pretty fitting for an RPG. :-) (Keith Morgans) ...Keith would certainly appreciate the irony anyway.

This game will definitely include memorials to both.

Deeply missed, forever loved.

pilch out.

p.s. Yes the Designer in Chief has a soft spot.
