Last sandbox mmo I tried was PaxDei which turned out to be a massive letdown.

    Would you recommend it? I'm looking for something casual I could hopefully make some friends on. How friendly are peeps on there?

    I got into it early on and it's definitely very friendly chill and fun! I am not playing it now since I am waiting for the wipe to happen.

    Wait, wipe? I could prolly look it up but that defeats the purpose of interacting with you fine folks.

    No. Stop hoping until it's been released and running publicly for at least 2 years. But don't start hoping after it's been 2 years because MMOs shut down randomly all the time.

    Best to never have hope, actually.

    if people followed this logic, they'd never try or play anything online or mmo related.

    your comment is pure empty cynicism, imho.

    I thought the "best to never have hope" would serve as the "/s."

    Online weirdos have eroded the venerable institution of sarcasm. I used to use /s more but I've decided to go further into absurdism. I just haven't gone far enough

    No. Sandbox MMOs will never be a thing. Most people simply don't want a second job, sorry.
