I suppose I should give my take on this game with my 5.0 hours played. You can start off as a farmer, carpenter or nothing. male or female with a character creation.
I joined a server a PvP server with a cap of 160 people. The overall surroundings were peeerrrrty but where to start in the middle of nowhere.
OOW is a MMO, Survival game with server caps. I would compare this to Conan but with more people. I haven't explored the vastness of the lands but I have had plenty of PvP in my first 30 minutes. This is similar to Conan because you start off needing to survive, people wanna kill you, you gather, build, upgrade, level and adjust attribute points. I was able to get a horse. As you can imagine you need to feed, water and lasso the horse to a post so it doesn't run off. If my horse survived the night then I will leave my homestead and ride north.
OOW is smoothish for me. I do run into the getting stuck somewhere if I log off to close to something issue (a quick relog fixes it). This is buggy because "alpha" but sadly that is the gaming standard these days. The devs seem to be working hard on the game as most do, so it's a 50/50 survival for the game if the devs can keep up.
OOW just did a wipe yesterday and added the ability for trains, which a guild or group can build as their own, or just rob others trains.
The crafting is entertaining as you do need A to make B and C to end up with item E. That sorta thing. I can almost make pistols which then I will need gunpowder to make ammo etc.
It's an entertaining game while I wait for the Atlas after wipe.
