So I really liked games like:

Wurmonline (Never really panned out the way I wanted, last I checked years ago no one really pvp’d)

Salem the Game (Not the popular social deduction game)

Eve Online (I hype fixate hard on Eve so gotta stay away from it. Also the P2W was disgusting)

Rust, but it not being an mmo was always a turn off as individual servers seemed to always have weird issues. Maybe it’s better now though.

Any suggestions for MMO’s I should check out? I wanna be able to be a little guy and built a little house, then join a group and go raiding. No pay to win stuff if it’s possible.

Any good games like that out and about?

I was going to recommend Worlds Adrift, but looking it up for this post is the way I discovered it was shut down 5 years ago lol

I did not realize it had been that long since I played it. Sadge

My brain is like “I played that game just like… last year right?”

Nah bro, you played that in high school, which was most certainly not last year.

Game was fun and had a lot of potential, it’s a shame it didn’t get popular enough.

Albion online seems like a good fit for you, although based on your location your ping will massively vary since they only have a few centralised servers.

I see gold is for sale in the shop, is store bought gold a big influence in the game? Or pretty irrelevant?

i haven’t played it that much since my ping was atrocious, but i would say no. IIRC beside membership and cosmetics that you can buy with gold, i think you can covert it into silver which you can use to progress faster and even buy gear but you won’t gain an unfair advantage or get something that’s exclusive to the MTX shop.

you should read what experienced players have written if you want a more detailed explanation, im just sort of vaguely familiar with the game.

Pretty much the same as PLEX in Eve. If that was p2w for you, then this will be p2w for you too.

Actually come to think of it, it’s worse in the regard that gold prices have an impact on the game. The lower the conversion rate of gold to silver drops below 1:5000 the higher the global discount on repairs, travel, islands etc.

I mean… in eve you were allowed to straight up buy perfect characters or skill injectors, then the isk to buy a ship. So you could have a newbie with the same character power as a 3 year old player.

My brain does not like grinding games with strong P2W aspects, it messes with me.

Mortal online 2

I got my fix for this experience through PvP minecraft servers, but not sure if any are still around today that are worth playing
