Similar to Haven & Hearth?

[Mordys]

Took me some time to remember the name of Haven & Hearth, after the release of LIF. The 2 games have many similaritys. Both can be played single/coop but coop players progress faster. Both Open world/resourse gathering. Both got "Xp system" is just the quality of the gods that matters in H&H. The big difference is that in H&H you can build everithyng by yourself. It just take time. Opinions?

I have never heard of haven & Hearth. Is it here on steam?

Edit: It looks like project zomboid without the zombies...and cute.

Nope its not on steam. I found it maybe 4-5 years ago when i was looking for rougelike/survival games. Its got a own site/wiki ect. Yeah graphic is pretty old.( yeah Fallout 2 got bad graph but the gameplay is 10/10)

That is all that matters is gameplay. Project zomboid is a good example.

I've played H&H. This is more like Wurm online. Here, you won't be able to do everything with one character. You have a limit on the amount of skills you can earn, one that can be raised a bit by intelligence. Though, some servers will be able to set a higher limit. You can earn enough skills to survive, but you won't be building any fancy walled manors. Though, you can create alts.

Obviously, this is 1st/3rd person instead of isometric. Combat is more involved than button pushing as you have to aim your attacks. I don't remember H&H having a single player mode, it was a persistent world mmo when I last played. Death is handled different per server settings; it can be perma-death up to partial skill loss. The latter is effected by your alignment, which is lowered by assault and such. The lower the alignment, the less skills you keep after death. Both have a lot of sandboxing and crafting.

As a fan of H&H, I really enjoy LiF. However, I would caution you to keep in mind that this is still an early release title; there are many bugs and many features are missing.

Also, no amount of time and effort will ever allow you to punch down stone walls in LiF.

It's very much a cross between Xsyon and Wurm but without the post apocolypse or fantasy settings and a medieval setting instead.

Thanks for the answer MrSeagull, even though it wasn't my question, I myself was wondering how similar this was to H&H as a former long-time player of that game.

Glad to hear you can't kick down castles after pigging out on cheese and sasusages for weeks on end lol. I'll be watching LiF closely though sounds more cooperative than my liking, as a jaded old survival/permadeath gamer I like to get my hermit on rather than join the local village grind.

If you are good at working out trade deals with the locals you will do fine.

Permadeath is an option to choose when hosting a server.

From one jaded old survival/permadeath gamer to another. ;)
