Hi Guys!

This is my first forum post, so ill make it quick.
Im thinking of making a MMORPG (more or less). And I was wondering, (before I put too much work in to turn back) would anybody would even be interested in playing it?
The game would be called WinterQuest. Ive already done some Artwork and VB game programming in the past. This would be my first online game, and of course its not going to be the next World of Warcraft. However, I would like to know, or at least get your opinons, on whether people would play it or not. Ive attached some of my original artwork. And I think it looks acceptable.
Mainly, why im asking this, is to see if the game would even get some use. The reason I want to know is so that I dont work my butt off making a game that nobody is ever going to use. So leave your opinon below. I do know that it all depends on whether the game "sucks" or not. And it all revolves around how long you spend on it and the effort put in. But I just want a general opinon.
Leave your comments. And even say if you would play it or not. Thanks guys!

P.S I know, the trees can use a little work. And if you can, leave some critisisim on the artwork too. Thanks!
Also, I put a lot of effort and time into my artwork. Please dont steal it and use it in any wide spread project.
