Salem was simply a horrible game, even without any advertising haven will always be played more.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

It was a vertigo simulator, lots of annoying cliffs, and the camera spins. It made me want to throw up from dizziness.

Jorbtar should of listened the community when we said how horrible salem was, and how great haven is. So instead of working on the game that everyone loves and wants to play, they work on the most horrible game ever spawned from hell.

Let's please not turn this into a hate Salem/rag on Jorbtor thing lest they tell us all to fuck off. I want/wanted Salem to be the badass, lovecraftian, magical witchcraft "Creatures of the fearsome lumberwoods" game but somehow over those 2 years it seems that vision was lost.

Maybe it'll be added now or maybe not but I ambeyond exstatic to have Jorb and Loftar back here at home where they belong. Try to throw em some donations if you can afford to, no other game I've played in my 40 years deserves it more than this one.......

You guys talking shit about being happy the other game failed are either selfish muppets or obtuse dickheads. The devs are allowed to pursue whatever direction they want and wishing people that brought you experiences like Haven and Salem ill in any shape is so dumb it makes me wish someone had invented the slap-a-bitch-through-the-internet already.

Good luck in whatever path you choose Jorb and Loftar, I'll always be a fan.

Salem didn't fail, if anything this is a big win for seatribe: since paradox fucked off, they can finally make a Game Conceived in Liberty like they wanted. I think it's really good that they took a break from development on Salem because honestly, they need to step back and re-examine their goals for it and how they can make if fun. Playing haven is a good refresher for them because haven is fun, they can glean what they did right in haven and hopefully bring some of that back to salem. Some people are going to prefer to play haven and not give a fuck about salem, and that's fine and good. Some people are going to prefer to play salem because "lol haven graphics" and that's fine, we don't want them here anyway.
