Richard Garriott (AKA General British) Now in Orbit
Game designer, Richard Garriott, who brought us Ultima Online and Tabula Rasa, took to the International Space Station via the Russian space program which set him back more than $30 million – instead of investing it in the suffering Tabula Rasa.
Garriott took with him the DNA of twenty Tabula Rasa players and while in orbit sent back a message via glyphs quoting Konstantine Tsiolkovsky “Earth is the cradle of humanity but mankind will not be in the cradle forever.
Now if we could only convince him to spend the next $30 million on making a game we want to play. Wouldn’t that be nice?
