Haven & Hearth

Not sure if anyone else has heard of it, but I recently stumbled across a game called "Haven and Hearth". It is an indie sandbox MMO, being developed by two Swedish guys. The thing that makes it interesting is that everything in the game is done by the players, rather than having a set course. Once you finish naming your character, you are random-spawned on the game world, unless you have a friend who is playing, in which case you can start at his hearth fire (basically a "home base", which the owner can teleport to). Once you are out in the world, everything is up to you. Only NPCs are wild animals, no NPC cities, no quests & etc. Once you spawn, you can start by getting an axe, leading to basic furniture, leading to houses, then villages and etc. The world is also fully pvp, with a perma-death, which may be a turn-off to some people. However, you can start a new character that "inherits" some of the skills and LP (basically exp, which can be put into any skill) of the ancestor character. Anyways, if you want to check out the game more, go to this link . I suggest looking through the forums, to get a good grip on politics and to check the tutorial "How do I" section for help.

 

Some tips for new players:

-Don't buy the swimming skill, ever.

-If someone speaks Russian while running towards you with a sword, teleport or flee.

-Get a friend to tell you his hearth secret (needs to set it), so you can all spawn in the same area.

-Don't eat raw meat.

-Read the forums for help

-Use the wiki (cannot stress how useful this is)

The list could go on but ask questions here or PM me if you have any.

 

Anyways, has anyone else heard of / played this? If so, please tell your current situation :)

hmm, I can't tell if you should've posted in the "looking for game" sticky or something of the sort since this topic exists in the Tavern O_o

I'll give it a go. Maybe. Any costs/downloads? Too lazy to check myself now.

Nah, it's free. The only income source they have is donations.
