Oh wow nice update.
I have a thing with Wurm in which I think it's atmosphere is amazing. I don't feel the same way playing any other game, and Minecraft is a different type of thing. The only thing that I got a close feeling is Eco, especially during the night on 15+ player-populated servers.. But the feeling dies off very fast due to the many rendering quirks and relatively small world, and also zero lore, mobs and so on.
I'm not sure yet if it's due to Wurm being one of the first games of its kind I played as a kid/teen, so it adds a nostalgia factor of sorts (which I really don't think it is), or if it's due to the game being developed as sort of a cross between a MMO, RPG and oldschool Virtual-World / Virtual-Life Sims. And maybe it's because I really like the sounds and soundtrack coherence, with the overall theme of the game. The lore of the game and how things work almost make me feel that the deities are watching my actions..
I'm telling you, I don't play Wurm a lot but this weird magical feeling and atmosphere I get out of it is weird, and I can't tell why. It's very weird when I can't explain something I feel out of a game.
