I have been interested in the idea of making the homepage immediately part of the game. New players would be taken directly to a sort of "Join the fight!" rah and "Click here to do this" crash tutorial. Returning players would be given game updates, personal news, new form/chat without having to log in.
For any players, I would have a quick "about this" message/SEO/ keyword section..but for a lot of games I think new people visiting the game want to be shown what it is.
Players might not get over the initial disappointment (mostly,need to build up trust right away).
Try to give new people seeing your game for the first time an honest impression of your game. That is, I wouldn't use a much better graphic and kickass appeal if
They don't necessarily want or need to be taken immediately into a detailed description of the game setting. Instead, show them what is currently going on in the game world. What are people/agents doing right now? What is the big forum event that everyone is talking about? Yes, I'm sure you have a great history of the game world and story you want to cram down my throat, but I will get to the details when I am good and ready!
