ArcheAge is an up-and-coming sandbox MMO which has been in production for some time. It floundered about for a good long time, having difficulties finding a company to bring it to the west, but Trion Games eventually took it up. Even now, only vague snippet of information are forthcoming regarding it, although what has been promised is enticing – ships, wagons, player-built housing, large-scale battles, player-judged legal system, prisons… I wonder if it will actually all come to fruition, and not be the vast disappointment previous games (Vanguard, for example) that have promised such wide-ranging systems have been.
Bare-chested male toons fishing in boats and riding donkeys? No problem.
