New form of trolling: killing same person repeatedly until they quit or can't afford to play the game anymore.

Then again, I dropped a ton of quarters into games like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter back in the day.

But Mortal Kombat and Street fighter are purely about player skill.

We get it. Let's not spread the argument around all over the place.

My point was more that I did drop a lot of quarters into those games. I sucked, yet I still competed. If it were cheap enough, I suppose I'd drop a lot of quarters into a game across the internet to get a replay or continue. Guess it would be more a comparison of time/value to the individual player and if it appeared the devs weren't cheating people

I discovered Haven & Hearth around Nov 02, 2013 while browsing 4chan's /vg/. Apparently Haven had a general for a while, but I've never seen it since. Anyways, I checked it out and played for a few weeks and met a guy named Lobo and built a hermitage. He got mauled by a bear and quit and then I quit shortly after due to the game being impossibly boring by yourself.
I've always wondered who those players on /vg/ were! Speak up if one of them was you!
“We still, alas, cannot forestall it-
This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

How did you find out H&H?

Post by sMartins »

Just curious....most of all about very old players that joined the game in 2009/2010....how did you find this game?
About me, i don't recall exactly but I believe somewhere on reddit or some sandbox games website. I discovered first H&H then Salem.

I've been invited by a friend from Warcraft 3 to a small village in 2010.

Not the first time this thread has been made... not going to bother trying to find the old ones. Just don't expect a lot of replies.

I found it on the Bay 12 Games forum after my first burn-out from grinding in EVE. There was an active B12 village in world 3, but by the time I went to see about joining up, they had started drifting away from the game.
