This game has no combat. While I like to do plenty of other things in my MMOs, the lack of combat is disconcerting to say the least. I like to kill things in MMOs, that's the one thing you really can't do in real life. I just don't understand the point of playing a game that only allows you to do things you normally could if you just got up off your ass...

I can see that i may come off as somewhat of a fanboy in the following post... But please be aware that is not my intention

Not having any combat in the game allows the devs and the GMs to have a much greater focus on the storys and the roleplaying then most any other mmo out there. I am not saying that its not posible to both have combat and roleplaying in the same game but considering the size of runestone they had to chooce their focus from the start of development and that is what they did. Imo they keept the game design all the way... the whole design of the game is pretty good imo.
Some people seem to think that Seed is a Sim game... its not Its a roleplaying game... a true mmorpg!
Interesting. They're actually quite fast at fixing the bugs. The game is still laggy - but nowhere near as badly as during the first day. ...and I was actually able to play for 45 mins before a crash; yesterday it was crashing every five minutes or so. Still several major and tons of minor bugs - but at this rate, it might actually be somewhat playable when they release it.

Well the better be working 24 hour days then because it is going to be released on Tuesday May 2nd. There is NO way they are even going to be in anything resembling even a beta stage by then. The game had a good premise but the backers forced them to roll it out far, far, far too soon as is typical these days in the independent MMO world.

Sorry for you, but if you are able to play now, it's because many players stop or wait Tuesday. Don't await a miracle.
