Welp, I ended up settling on Release, didn't do a whole lot with a large chunk of land I settled. Now they're raising prices on gametime and silver to cover Swedish taxes. I'm out for now.
You can't boat to Release yet, can you? I re-subbed my char last month with some silver I had but haven't put much time into it in the past few weeks.
I did earn some extra silver using their Bitcoin mining app for a week or two. If I ever decide to come back I'll use that to re-sub
I play on Serenity within the Epic cluster. Wurm is trying out magic on the Epic cluster. I am having SO much fun! I've been looking for a game for a long time to really sink my teeth into. I'm Babinka ingame. Amyone interested, come say hello
Someone might want to throw them a second shield model..
Nice! Depending on pricing/limitations, I will quite likely be in for that to piddle around in single player or a GWJ-specific server.
It will be interesting to see how Wurm Unlimited affects Wurm Online's player base, looks like an interesting alternative though.
I picked up Wurm Unlimited during the Steam winter sale, and the majority of my gaming time has been spent there since.
It reminds me of the early stages of a telling of A Tale in the Desert. There is a lot of infrastructure to build, and a huge potential for Yak shaving. It doesn't have ATitD's technological progress though, where the new mechanics help reduce the grind and tend to reward smart play over grinding (or at least along side grinding). And, for me, thats ok ... right now at least, I'm not looking for much in the way of intellectual challenge while gaming, as I'm mostly in "oh-god-baby-wont-sleep-again-tonight" zombie mode while playing, so something deep but not overly challenging really fits the bill. I haven't done much with the combat system yet, though it looks pretty clunky. My focus instead has been becoming the ship-builder for the settlement I joined, and ultimately bringing in cash and good by selling ships.
I've been playing on Mythmoor as Hirokache, if anyone wants to stop in. It's one of the more populated servers, most frequently the most populated at any given time (exceeding the Wurm Online numbers at times).
Thanks! I was trying and failing to find this thread yesterday to post that in.
I'm back for another round of WU, still on the Mythmoor server. It looked like the people in my settlement were mostly on hiatus, and my permissions had been greatly reduced, so I set off to create my own settlement, named 'Absurdia'. There isn't much to see there yet, but if any Goodjers are looking for a place to setup or just to visit, you can come out. Player portals are located around the perimeter of Moor's Rest; the portal to Absurdia is located on the first floor of the 'NE4' building (located, surprisingly, in the northeast of the city).
EDIT: Corrected portal location
I may join you. I hopped into mythmoor as my first stop after picking up WU. I did set up a local server last night, and it's a weird feeling having a virgin landscape all to yourself.
Is your IG name the same as here?
Ah, no. I'm Hirokache on Mythmoor.
I had intended to only play around on a local server, and did so for a few days; I do really enjoy a completely unsettled land. But I kind of missed the skills I had already managed to grind up on Mythmoor, and I thought that at some point I might miss the social aspect, so I logged back in.
Wurm is coming to steam again! This time its Wurm Online itself, coinciding with the launch of two new servers (one PvE, one PvP). The launch will occur sometime later today.
I'll be giving it a go on the PvE server; I'm not sure if I'll be able to stomach the grind for too long, after I've mostly played on at least somewhat-accelerated WU servers, but I'll at least get as far as a month or two of premium and setting up a deed somewhere.
