While DIE is not interested in 'competing' with the rich gameplay of such worlds, it is important that the project offers a tax-free citizenship. This defines a fundamental level of motivational difference between the great majority of game based persistent worlds and DIE.

The second component of the project involves a website, forums, project documentation and public download site.

The DIE core design team is currently comprised of individuals as diverse as an IP lawyer, a political scientist, Linux developers, artists, 2 game theorists and several programmers.
