The condition with PvP is that it’s the strongest approach to affect others in a MMORPG. And in contrast to actual life, where you will discover natural, cultural and institutional barriers to “mindless ganking”, murdering, etc…, in game, consumers are anonymous behind a screen.

UO was and still could be the only and best real sandbox MMORPG. Some people confuse sandbox with open unrestricted PvP. This can be total nonsense. Minecraft is usually a sandbox game, is PvP mandatory as game? Definitely not. A sandbox game is approximately shaping your global, creating stuff, not about killing one another (even though it can be part of it). PvP must be controlled and harnessed, with VERY harsh consequences for mindless killing, or it will need over the whole game, get to be the main focus of computer and mandatory (aka forced), and destroy one other elements of a sandbox.
