I am looking for a game that is not combat oriented. It may have combat of course, but i want to do other things and have fun in the process.
Think about it like a mix of crafting in EVE Online with the main focus in that aspect like A Tale in the Desert III
PS: It's important that it doesn't have crappy graphics. PS2: And, with a good tutorial (not depending on a wiki or something so "casual") |

why do humans build, because it isn''t there |
if you understand atleast a tiny bit of programming, texturing, artsiness, and/or marketing. you won't ever be able to beat second life till a competitor comes along. there are about 15 or so communities that are RP based, and have fighting in them. so once you get ahold of the weapon scripts, and sometimes permission to use them. you can make pretty much any weapon you could want to(I made a sword that looked perfectly normal but made the rain guard backwards(basically it looked fine but it looked wrong to 50% of people like something was off), and even made a few spells(these took custom scriptwork by me but I got a basic attack shard and a few AoEs)).
but even if you don't go the RP route(dreadfully over crowded with scripters and crafters) you could pretty much make a bit of cash on the side if you have the abilities(I haven't logged on in a few months so the project that get me a comission on sales have put about $17 worth of linden cash in my account), or be an artisan class type person(those that can build and script are actually respected) and get some slightly amusing attention for it. |

Originally posted by AtrusV As opposite to all grinding and linear mmo's last years I can recommend you Vanguard. Graphics is realy beautiful and there are nice introduction quests about any of the 3 spheres in the game. You can enjoy the game very long time without kill even one mob because there are another 2 spheres in addition to adventuring - crafting and diplomacy that are really complex so you can improve your skill in that spheres everyday without become bored. Also all of the 3 aspects of the game (adventure, crafting, diplomacy) offer a real opportunity to explore this beautiful world where you will remember every part of the this huge open world (in opposite to WoW). As Vanguard logo says: "Feel yourself free". Also game become very polished a year after release in contrast of his fault start. GL&HF |

Wurm Online is as complicated and involved as it gets. The graphics are not of a triple AAA MMO, but they are decent enough to act as a basis for the crafting. |

Maybe i'll try Vanguard, but i have heard that it has a low population of players.
PS: I have tried Wurm long time ago and i didn't like it

Originally posted by AtrusV Wurm long time ago and wurm now are very different :) Then it was a work in progress... Now it still is but the game play is patched up very nicely. I will also suggest it that for what you are looking for a 2nd try for free may be worth your time. Good luck. |

In my opinion, the worse thing about Wurm Online is.... http://mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/gameId/129/setView/screens/display/1151
The incredible bad texturized stick-man. Seriously, is this a man or a moob?
PS: Sorry, i didn't want to be sarcastic |

It would aid you on your quest to find recent screenshots of the game. Blessings, btw, check it out again. I was in your same boat. I played it a long time back and recently came back and I'm having a blast. |

| If Christianity is the following of Christ, His words and His leadership, then Christianity is the right way forward. Jesus is the One who claimed to be THE Truth and who possesses all wisdom and knowledge (Col 2:4-5) Though in Christianity many may say or do goofy things, Christ is the Faithful Witness so that is my cornerstone. When I made that decision, the world and all of its religions and philosophies suddenly became clear as it is all of Him, through Him, to Him and for Him. |
