thats so true :3.
it takes forever to even gain skills build stuff when your stats sucks.


Game is fun until you run out of things to do. I can't bring myself to really play much when all i have left to do is grind and eat food for hours.

It doesn't take long to get skills, not sure what your doing wrong =/


The population fluctuates so much I see a lot of it coming to this point, where there isn't enough content to keep people entertained. Once you get setup in the darkness or just build a village, the only thing left is stattin up. The group I play with has went from 15-20 to about 2-5 that log in and actually play a little. Personally I havn't did anything in about a week. Waiting for something more then eating food to do.

It would have proven your point much better and also proven you really do understand how to fight people and not only how to slaughter helpless sheep.

It's a problem with survival multiplayer games... When everyone starts surviving well off and go 'meh I'm not really surviving, I'm just living'.

A severe lack of mid and end game mechanics, and early game progression can varied based on the food you eat and the time spent online.

The problem is, you need x amount of food and stats before you hit mid game progression, then you get bored because you now know what to do.

PVP as a end game mechanic is stupid, as people would rather quit and play a different mmo than deal with it.

And yet here you are posting in the forums for a game with PvP as the only endgame mechanic... wow. What do you want for the endgame? Dragon slaying and raid bosses?
