WTF is this game
Grabbed from this thread - Haven & Hearth is a MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game) set in a fictional world loosely inspired by Slavic and Germanic myth and legend. The game sets itself apart from other games in the genre in its aim to provide players with an interactive, affectable and mutable game world, which can be permanently and fundamentally changed and affected through actions undertaken by the players. Our fundamental goal with Haven & Hearth is to create a game in which player choices have permanent and/or lasting effects and, thus, providing said players with a meaningful and fun gaming experience.

Players start the game surrounded by a vast and somewhat unforgiving wilderness, with only the most basic tools of survival at their disposal. The use of fire is a thematic focal point of the game's mythos, and an early and important task will be the simple lighting of one. As the first hearth fires disperse the darkness of the surrounding wilderness, more pressing questions will present themselves to the players: Who are they? Where are they? And, most importantly, where are they going? From this point on, players will have to blaze trails of their own into the unknown, the wilderness and the future, and explore and affect the world of Haven & Hearth using only their own best judgment and a chipped stone axe. Trust us, the stone axe is the stuff.

As players progress, they will be able to acquire new skills and abilities, allowing them to perform a variety of tasks—such as the claiming of land, the construction of buildings and the cultivation of crops—each step forward making the basic task of survival somewhat easier. Having progressed far enough, players will, in time, be able to organize themselves into societies, from simple tribes and villages, progressing through republics, nation states and, ultimately, empires. More info can be found at the Wikia page.

How TF do I play
Simply register here and log in.  After that you can click the big pink "play" button.  However the vanilla client is stuff so I would recommend using Ender's client.  There are other modified clients out there but this is the best and most popular one I've found.

The OP text had me really worked up that it was gonna look really dark and cool and mysterious and foggy and then i saw the pics

oh god the drama (and extreme grinding) in this game. i'd love to play again as a hermit again but i don't think i'd ever put enough time in to actually get something going on

my friend and i made a really nice house about 10 times-- we always play for a bit, then get bored of it. once you get to a certain point its so boring to play.

I have two accounts: Hydromatic (this is my main) and Ayxrion.
heres a picture of our main base: we havent played in over 2 months-- all of our chickens and pigs are dead. :( (however somehow two of them are still alive...)

and ignore the failed little house... it was a failed experiment.

This actually looks kinda fun, I'll have to check it out.

Hah, first time I return to blockland forums and I see an HnH thread.

Haven 2.0, or iirc Hafen is coming out this 28th though? I'm just gonna visit my old town for a spell I guess, though I know Elvenia is supposed to be in ruins by now.

oh well, I'd still like to try

It's not quite a lost cause, but it can get bad.
Lots of stuff happened the last time, due to difference in opinion.

Fun times still.
