There aren't really any "newer" sandbox MMO's sadly... The newest game that comes to mind for me that has sandbox elements is Xsyon. There's also an interesting sandbox game called Salem but if you want good graphics you'll probably be dissapointed.
From what I read, the only positive remarks made by those who previewed it were on the feel of the combat system. Everything else seems to be pretty sub-par to me.... so sad.
I've been exploring the vast new world just about all day now... had a nice settlement starting and then got KO'd by a cricket. You know of any smaller sized groups looking to found a village?
If I ever get past this registration page and into the game, us MMOPRG.com dudes should meet up somewhere and lay down a badass homestead. Is there something like a Hearth-secret like in Haven and Hearth?

I'm sure this will not be the case by any means, but I feel like since TES has always been about sandbox RPG freedom in a single-player world, would it not be too bizarre to give a similar sandbox open world feeling to this new online game in develo…
Awesome Kabaal, thanks for the heads up. I'm definitely more than willing to give some money to a small group of developers that can crank out a game as high quality as this. Only game I've played lately that can actuallly pull me away from Skyrim.

I'm so glad this game is getting some coverage! If you're thinking about playing this game and indepth sandbox games are your thing. do yourself a favor and get Xsyon.
It's not perfect, still early in it MMO life with some bugs here and there and …
I know EXACTLY what you're saying OP. And I know this is a bit off-topic but after hearing more about the new Elder Scrolls game; Skyrim, and how you play a specific character this... "Dragonborn", is a step in taking away the freedom of immersion …

I could say the exact same thing about Xsyon.. Unpopular doesn't make it good and haveing a completly empty world with out even a chicken is not inovative, The size of the Dev team might explain why it's in such ba…

Originally posted by BlackUhuru LOL Rift is a turd but Xsyon isn't... Hey i love Xsyon's concept and with a few more years it might be playable but to call Rift a turd is laughable compared to the state Xsyon is in.
