In my opinion because of piracy gaming industries in malaysia will have a hard time. Couple it with the mentality of most malaysians right now, especially the older generation that money is more well spent on something else than entertainment = pirated games.

methinks the focus should not be on MMORPGs, but instead on attracting outsource jobs, like the way Nival did with Heroes of Might and Magic V. Small crappy game company in russia but making $$$ thanks to ubisoft. and that game is buggy yo, but still playable. I think I mentioned this point before in a similar thread sometime ago.

Nival is pretty good, by the way. They made a Tactical RPG WW2 game called Silent Storm. Pretty awesome game. Ragdoll physics, destructible enviroments (blow up entire buildings with grenades!).
Pity the game was horribly unoptimized and buggy though.
Still, gaming gems come out of Russia occasionally.

But yeah I agree. Legit gaming purchases have still a long way to go in Malaysia. I myself just started buying legit games myself after.... 20 years.

at the malaysian side...fung wan online? I almost puked when I saw the UI. terrible. Why cant they get some char designer from limkokweng or something.

Any other malaysian games? I'd be willing to support them, really.
