How did you learn about this game?

Postby Eggy57 » Tue Jun 28, 2016 11:35 pm

I have always wounded how people first heard about this game when its super hard to find a game with few people playing (in a large sense).
I first leant about this game because my brother was playing it, no clue how he found it.

Someone posted a topic about it on a small forum I frequent a few years ago.

My friend KendrickLlama told me to check out this game today, and I've been enjoying it.

There used to be a Haven thread on /vg/ that I stumbled upon back in w7. I played for a few weeks as a hermit and quit. Then I came back hyped for w8.
“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.”

An idea to consider: Tedium, a Feature.

I wanted to play a sandbox MMO. I did research over the net. I chose to play this one. SImple yet surprisingly effective way of "finding a game few people play".

Projared's video is bit outdated but still somewhat accurate.

My first contact with HnH was when I saw post about it on a Finnish imageboard. I initially decided to not try, discouraged by warnings of permadeath (assumed that dying is an inevitability that will eventually drop on to your head instead of risk lurking behind you) and somehow I assumed that the game was something like Travian. (If you haven't played Travian, it was basically old-school Clash of Clans that you had to play with desktop browser)
