I got the BOTD and I'm never coming back. Both this game and Runescape are free games and Runescape is 100 times better.

If you don't much care for selling things at their maximum value, it's better to clear debris in the cow area, as the general shopkeeper NPC is within your viewing range and can be navigated to automatically to sell stuff and then keep sifting through debris.

Turns out I wasted time trying to get the rake when I could have also just cleaned the debris in the lake. The hay bales don't even give more experience.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I had to fish, cook the fish and sell the fish in order to buy a rake, so I could finally level up farming and then spend many minutes getting attacked by a hay pile to maybe get enough farming experience to level farming up to level 10.

I think I've done it. I think I've found the very worst MMORPG in existence. I didn't think it was possible for a game to be this boring and terrible. I need to kill 20 chickens and it only counts to 3 and doesn't increase any further. How am I supposed to get farming levels? Just wait for the CAPTCHA to pup up so I can gain level up farming from there? Or save up 35 THOUSAND coins to be able to actually farm?! This is atrocious. It takes HOURS to grind this pathetic excuse for an easy badge. I'd much rather play one of those idle games over this. At least numbers go up fast there.

Wait until Josh Strife Hayes finds out about this game. This may actually be the worst MMO ever like his video series "Worst MMO Ever?".

This is actually insanely boring. Ugly pixel art without animations. Just the most basic fighting mechanics where you attack in turns, but without strategy (at first at least), so there's nothing fun about that. As I said, no animations, so you just sit there and wait for their healthbar to go down. Monsters just stand there motionless, lifeless.

I thought old school Runescape with its original graphics was one of the worst looking MMORPGs until I saw this game. Jesus Christ.

To anybody complaining about the captchas: You can click multiple times for a new rendition/picture, so they are always readable at some point. And captchas give points that can be turned into EXP of your choice. They are helpful.

@archerbob: Very reasonable...not. @Starfoth: I've been playing for months and I don't think other players can just attack you.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
okay my farming is at 1 still and I have -2 captcha points whatever that is. I take back what I said, this is a terrible BotD, worse than the other garbage we get cause it's not even completable
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Great BotD, if you got even an inkling of interest in the game, standing around 10 other players trying to remove debris from a lake will surely kill that interest. Also game needs a combat log, "You have been killed..." by what?! What is injuring me?! The debris??
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I can't even tell if I'm doing anything. This game doesn't tell you if you are actually doing an action or if you need to click, nothing. What is even going on? Why do I keep taking random damage? Why is this even a game?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Wait can players just kill you? Is it really savage like people say? If so I'll be very disappointed because I genuinely thought this would have been a fun little side game to mess around in otherwise

BOTD and farming - Dorpats starting area has small waterbonds with label "floating debris", you can lvl up your farming there. If you get captcha points, use them to lvl up farming. Takes a bit time, but easy...

This is the kind of game that makes me wish I could give negative star ratings. Thank you so much to people who posted info on how to gain farming experience. Pulling debris from a pond is not an intuitive choice, and there is basically no explanation in game.

I deeply dislike this game! All seemed fine, then I turned my back on it for 2 minutes and when I came back my character had been killed and all the equipment stolen. Another aggressive dog-eat-dog to make you spend real money con, masquerading as a farming game. I've quit games like this before for the same reason. I'll get the BOTD then ditch it.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
For BOTD go to the north to the town, where there are chickens, then try to remove debris from the pond. Over few minutes you can obtain farming levels very easy

@Criggie: buying and selling sand near Reval is the best early-game opportunity to make money. As for farming, I just picked blueberries for some time.

For BOTD, I ended up using every CAPTCHA point toward farming, and that got me there in a couple hours of grinding. Every "action" has a small chance of triggering the anti-bot CAPTCHA so keep doing something. I ended up grinding by logging Oak and selling it, with the intention of saving $35k to buy the farming deed. I ended up getting to $25k.

@shadree you can gather debris in the water near the stone fountian and chickens. Not sure but I think you can use a rake on the hay piles? Still haven't got a rake from the tool box and not sure where the heck to buy one.

According to the in-game level up window, i progressed from level 1 to 11 to 3 to 4 to 2 to 12....maybe dev should look into that

Still lose worn gear when you die... still not interested in a game that does such a thing. Even my mud gave up on making people lose gear when they die because it sucks and ruins the game.

Oh lord why did I grab this quest for fishing perch? I'm massively overleveled. I've only caught 4 so far and its been hours XD

(Continued) For all the activities mentioned, having max speed is very useful. The easiest setup is perhaps Reptile Boots (defense 50 required) or Agility Boots for boots, Bat Cape, Devil Cape, Soul Cape, or Fire Cape for capes, and a skill donkey or adult wolf. Bows can also give speed. When exploring a new area, bring at least some food and a teleport (probably Dorpat) and use WASD and move carefully. (In general just be careful and don’t pick fights without using a combat analysis) Finally, once you have enough gear, set your stance to cordial after getting Defense 60 (for which you should use defensive stance) then kill the best mob for exp. (for me it was Nagas in Cesis and Ruby Dragons in Dragon’s Lair) Probably not the best but I got all the badges in 17 days without ever playing a MMO like Runescape.

(Only for getting the badges) Heads-up, Health 90 is 4,912,270 total exp and Forging and Carpentry 60 are 214,147 total exp. Some tips?????? Forging 60, buy skulls from the Reval Alchemist and craft bone helmets during 2x with an empty inventory except speed gear, might take maybe an hour or two. For Carpentry just buy the logs from the market (or npc) up to willow (if you have the money), then woodcut maple and spirit yourself with an empty inventory except speed gear. I think it was somewhat enjoyable because I was able to semi-afk and do other stuff while chopping wood.
It’s not a bad idea to look at guides or the fandom. Making money isn’t that hard: raw rat meat or sand on the market for starters is good, you can also buy from an npc and deposit into a chest and sell in bulk but it is a bit boring. (it only works for a few items, I prefer bamboo fabric from the Reval Magician and make sure someone is buying the item on the market) and also combat.

This game is nice, a little bit harsh sometimes like old games, not good for centennials that cannot deal with frustrations. Somewhat like Tibia, ADOM, Runescape. And works in a browser, so it's nice for your 8 hour box job where you can also study a degree but you prefer to evade life because you are traumatized by narcissistic parents.

Reminder that you can move with WASD so you can avoid aggressive enemies more easily. That way, you don't get thrown into a fight you might not be able to win.

Got out of tutorial area, walked some blocks, got ambushed and couldn´t even flee. lost all my items with no way of recovery. Nice way to make a person quit and never return.

Awful game. Lot of hidden caveat here and there. Played for a few days, spent 2 days try to level up the pet, then the stupid "AI" walk me in a very stupid way and cause an aggressive monster to kill me. Lost 2 days of pet experience. Luckily I got this bullshit after 3 days instead of after 30 days. Will not touch this rubbish.
