I'm currently exploring this game a little. I find it really enjoyable in a casual way, basically a non-grindy Wurm Online. It doesn't feel like a grind, even if I have to perform a task over and over (like making bricks, for example) because I'm not hampered by skills or the worry of them decaying if I don't maintain them, etc.
There's still much of the game for me to investigate, but I'm thoroughly enjoying what I've come across so far. There are a few niggles, however. I may have generally bad timing when it comes to who else is online when I am, but there's been a few arguments over OOC that left me thinking to myself "Why??". Though I simply stood well back and observed them it did give me an uneasy feeling, but I doubt any on-line community is completely free of gesticulating, with people flexing their "The admin's aren't on, I can do/say what I like, STFU" muscles but there does seem to be a disproportionately large amount of people (at least when I'm online) who're of the opinion that following the rules is something only worth doing when there's someone there to actively enforce them.
Again, that happens to a degree in many games, and I think I've just been unfortunate enough to be on during a few incidents where this problem has been especially evident.
At any rate, I'm still exploring, and if/when I'm settled and know my way around I'll likely pursue inclusion in the B12 sub-community here
