NOTE: I'm not advertising this game, I'm just a player trying to inform the public.
Toadwater is the most unique mmo-game I've ever played. And trust me, ive played atleast 100..no doubt. It's not really an MMORPG, atleast I don't consider it that way. Because there is no fighting spawns and upgrading weapons and what not.
Its really kind of hard to explain just what Toadwater is. Imagine Harvest Moon, but online is the best way I know to explain it.
You build a base and try to keep others out. In your base you keep all of your goods and everything you've worked for. Your farm, trees youve grown (to chop down for wood to build more things). And, you have to build fences to keep people out. (higher grade = harder to chop and for enimes to enter) or you can be a raider (kind of the "PK" of toadwater) and try and get in others bases to ttake their stuff.
But, Toadwater is in no way short on skills. It has tons. I will name: Construction, Cooking, Farming, Forestry, Management, Textile, Weaving, Whittling, and more! Also: THERE IS NO LEVEL CAP for any of these skills, and tons for you to do while upgrading them.
Toadwater, no doubt, has a great idea behind it. and the gameplay is golden, because everything happens in real time: rather you are connected or not your trees and crops will still grow. So, you don't need to play 24/7. The bad thing is..the graphics are very low quality. Though it still beats text based, its nothing to write home about. But what are graphics but eye candy? the real juice of the game is in the game itself. Go try it, you will see. With only about 5000 members, this game is seriously over rated.
If you have any questions, I'll try to ask. But keep in mind..this is a very deep and complexed game..so it can be tiresome to completly explain some things :P
