I'd love to see this remade in a modern engine.

[Itharus]

Preferably one that could handle complex voxels (of the Unity looking sort, not the minecraft cubes).

Would be amazing.

its called Life is Feudal.

There are differences for sure, but a lot of game aspects are similar and not voxel to be fair

[Itharus]

The problem with LIF is the developers. The non-MMO version was completely abandoned and the MMO version is as much a mess as the developers are :(

I appreciate the suggestion, though. I've just looked into that one already and been sadly disappointed :(

i personally could not remotely care less about developers.

really if I recall correctly the only thing that really needs updating is the wikipeida
other then that, all games eventually come to a point where development stops

that all said, its the closest 'like wurm but with high graphics' I can think of.

and this is absoluitly positively NOT the game to play if you want active development...like by a loooong shot

What, Wurm or LIF?

My issue with LIF is that it started as the SP game and then they abandoned it to do the MMO version. They used the SP to basically alpha their MMO and that's deceptive AF and I don't like it. The SP game was never properly finished before being dropped.

As for Wurm? It's ancient, I get that, lol. I expect nothing from the devs (for this) - the goose is long since cooked and it was delicious :)

Just saying I wouldn't mind then roasting another ;)

like I said,

- I could not remotely care less about developers, at all.
- just saying this game is not being worked on in case you did not know is all.
-Life is Feudal is the only game I can think of that is realistically similar to this game but with high end graphics.
-Other games like Medieval Engineers is kinda sorta maybe but not really

There is one (I dont recall the name) that is under dev now but I typically do not put a lot of faith into games that are not released already. If I see something that is not released I just assume it will never happen.

[Itharus]

LOL, fair enough. If you remember what it's called, I'd love to know though :)

Chronicles Of Elyria maybe the one you are thinking of?

That actually looks pretty cool. Although... I saw mentioned there are finite resources and monopolies will be allowed. LOL that will go to crap in about 6 months tops - and that's just from alpha guilds. Once the farmers come online - perpetual game over.

Pity they aren't making a controllable server mode instead of doing the whole mmo thing. That's one part of what I loved about WU. Simply put: massive MP games are usually awful experiences, as are just... well... public servers. The ability to have servers that are actively moderated and controlled/refreshed is amazing.

[Krazuka]

plus LiF is pure pvp, unless hunting counts as PvE

CoE went to crap years back with lots of issues all of which related to the developers and the CEO Jeromy Walsh moreso than the game. It is, as of March, officially a lost cause, though many of us recognized that fact long before it was made official.

as much as I could not remotely care less about what developers say or dont say, do or dont do.
I do tend to get hair spike on the back of my neck when I hear something that is wrong.

Life is Fedual first started as an MMO project, not as a single player server project. i dont know (or care) which was released first but the intent from the start was MMO

Oh wow, it actually got cancelled then? Surprised the site was still up. A shame :(

Re: LiF being a planned mmo thing - they really shouldn't have done a smaller scale game they intended on abandoning before it was really finished then. Leads me to really not want to support them.

MMO's despite the obvious appeal for this kind of game, do have a tendency to implode though due to the short brutish and nasty nature of most people. Smaller scale MP communities with enforcers are much better imo. Part of why WU is nice! With a newer engine I could see it having a much larger player base (see: ark, conan, atlas, etc), although I 100% get that it's not gonna happen. Still wanted to voice my support for the idea :)

see videos of sony/daybreaks "Landmark" because all the things u could do exploiting voxels , was very good , also Planet Explorers is another type had really cool voxel setups .. sad that not much more dev on Voxels other than " Dual Universe" only new thing coming ?

the problem is you have your facts very wrong to start with.

Life is Feudal from the start was always focused on being an MMO. It was an MMO project, the 'your own' was an after thought.
which was released first is not relevant but what I am saying in which was the first intent is.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_Is_Feudal
During the late winter of 2014, the indie team - which later became Bitbox Ltd - had created a working tech demo for the concept of Life is Feudal: MMO, showcasing many of the main gameplay features, such as real time multiplayer, terraforming, and objects construction.

With the influx of new crafting games, better hardware and MMO's next-generation "Wurm" is bound to happen eventually. whether it's something made by Code Club AB remains to be seen.

I just hope it comes from smaller / indie company rather than from any of the Triple-A companies. I'd rather have player hosted servers, modding along with not so overly polished gameplay that has some proper complexity and depth.
