I don't see this working well with the Graal engine. For one, the idea isn't really bad, but who really cares to get online and play a game where you're living a life in the present? I mean if there is no fantasy twist or time difference it's pretty pointless. It's like getting on to live in a house and ride a bike when you do that IRL already.

One of the biggest downsides is that the Graal engine isn't really suited for this type of thing. If you're making graphics and stuff based off of real house pictures, it would be easier to do that with 3D modeling and textures than to go and freehand draw entire house sets for each individual person. Plus you'd need whole new everything. Current bodies and system wouldn't work well, and definitely not graphics. So you'd need to work on this thing for like, a year, just to get anything good out of it.
