are the people real players?

[thething1992]

it says it's an online game, but my question is, is the online players real time, or just data ghosts?

I probably ended up in a dead town where everyone stopped playing as nobody answered in the chat the past 2 days, or saw I wrote something on their blackboard at home. :(

You can by being in the same town. You can use the town chat to coordinate and talk.

But can you play side by side with them in real time?

It's coop progression since you can share items and uprgrade your town together, but you cant walk along your mate if that is what you wished for. Yet you can visit his house, chat with him and look at his player character to check his stats and equipments.

So basically indirect co-op? Like they are not actually in your game playing with you but they can help you still?

Pretty mutch, later you can elect a mayor of your town that (I guess) will be in charge of how to spend town gold and make it pretty.

10k chities just to join seems too much added onto what you already need to grind

A mayor is determined by whoever has the most valuable house. House value is level + the value of the furniture inside. The player selected as town mayor can sell town furniture and rename the town. There is an "election" every 24 hours. If another player has a higher house value than the current mayor, the mayorship will change. A gold emblem will be visible above the Mayor's house in town.

Once a day, there is an examination to see if anyone has a more impressive house than the current mayor which may lead to a change in leadership.

So this game thrives on being in a town where real players also reside so you can grow together basically?

I'm doing the grind perfectly solo, but that is because I have alot of free time atm with my injury. I've read that towns seemed to be bugged, if you join one that your house doesn't appear there and nowhere else so I'm certainly not taking the risk.

Also after almost 50 hours played (probably 30hrs ingame active) I have seen around 1000 people from United States of America, 300 from Canada, 100 from England, 100 from Germany, 30 from Korea. Like other countries don't exist, never saw someone from Spain, France, Belgium, Ireland, Scandinavian coutries. Weird if the ghostdata is really based on real data, or are only the nicknames real? I've seen someone with a pretty much full dutch name having a Korea tag on him.
