r/SeedMMO

I understand it’s early access, I played for an evening and just wanted to share my thoughts.

The AI
I really enjoyed this feature, how the seedlings could interact and that I could just type stuff to them, I also loved that my seed talked in the personality I gave him.

UI
I thought the UI was great, a bit of a learning curve but it felt really natural to use, it was smooth, nice animations, great overview of what’s happening.

The grind
Honestly it wasn’t my thing, I thought this game might have been more creative, but I think it comes across as more of a cash grab / grinding game. I visited a bunch of different societies and they all sort of looked the same.

Style
I like the general look of the game, I think the art style has a lot to offer, for a game of this size it’s just the right amount of detail, I liked the physics in the hair and how they walk around depending on their mood.

Tutorial
I loved that little character flying around the window and talking to me, really great job there. The voice was spot on!

Story
I didn’t get it, everything is sort of unlocked if you join an advanced society, so my characters progression was a bit confusing, if a public lot was filled with materials and machines, I could just go and make everything for free regardless of my characters progression.

Misc
- There’s a lot of content for an early access game, I think maybe even a little too much for the current UI (e.g. work benches), in the future I think submenus and search bars could help with finding things a bit more easily
- Creativity, it’s lacking in that department, I don’t really know why I’d build a house if they all look the same
- World View, this looked like the least complete part of the game, being able to click on islands would be cool
- My seedling got sick and I had to try and find a cure which I enjoyed, I saw the market has different delivery options which I thought was fun!
- Chat, I enjoyed chatting with other players who were online, it was a friendly and helpful community.
- Companion app, really cool touch, I think it has a ton of potential of keeping me engaged when I’m not at my PC.
- Job system, I found a QI job that gave me a bunch of money every day, but if I turned off the schedule I was still paid which didn’t make much sense.
- The map: it was just a flat field with some trees, I enjoyed the fog and the neighboring societies though.

Wishlist
- Livestock/pets
- More building customization
- Free children (not having to buy/grind for more slots)
- Visit other societies (it has this, but only as a spectator, it would be cool to visit/make friends in different places with my player).
- Larger maps, it felt really small, a large town would be so cool
- Bikes/Cars/Trains, goes hand in hand with the previous point, there was a city planning mode, would be epic to travel faster

Final thoughts
In its current state I probably wouldn’t play it again, I don’t really see the purpose, maybe because I was expecting more of a creative game so that’s on me. I think if I felt a bit more attached to my seedling, their house and their relationships it would be a slam dunk game, but I got cash grab / grinding vibes which really put me off.

The grid didn’t appeal to me, it was machines and resource tables scattered everywhere, it looked like a mess, it honestly felt a little bit rushed, if this game had elevation, mountains, rivers, a true map, I think that would be epic.

Hello, I was having alot of questions about this game and wondering to buy it, but still don’t know I like playing Osrs and other mmos.

Name: Empyrea

Time Zone: I’m EST but open to different time zones for 24/7 productivity

Vibes: Relaxed, social, developmental, experimental

Just need two people who would like to start a new one :)
Let me know!

Looking to start this game this week. Want to bring on a few people who are looking to become major players and founders to the society.

The target is a visually appealing, organized, efficient economy.

If you want to be apart of a professional community and would like to lead. HIT ME UP!

I played Eve Online for roughly 12 years. Are any of you a former (or current) Eve player and playing Seed? I am curious how the mental transition has been. I imagine the foundation of the economy and player-gen'd material is similar but how about the actual play - similar to the non-combat aspects of Eve Online?

Hi I just wanted to ask if any has tried running it on Linux with wine yet.

Most of my steam library runs on Linux with wine/proton just fine. But I'm looking to double check if anyone has tried it before I buy the game.

Or at least start a thread for Linux users fix to get it running

I’m super interested in starting a society from the ground up. I am a complete beginner! I’m a The Sims, city building, and open world RPG addict so I’m not a complete novice but I’m sure learning this game completely could take quite a while!

If anyone else is looking to be part of one I would love to see others who are preferably EST, but any time zone may be helpful due to 24/7 maintenance of the society. I’m thinking of a star/space theme name for the society to match my username :)

I have orders that just will never successfully deliver, meaning I lost the money and never got the items, can't cancel the orders either, I hope this is fixed soon

I've spent actual money on buying a 3rd seedling slot, accidentally forgot to add physical attributes, I think we should be able to delete or change things within the first hour (IRL) or so. Especially if the seedling dying means the spot goes with them and you have to buy a new one :/

Hi guys!

We have just reached the "City" tier in Ad Astra.

What this means for us, is that now we can draft and propose laws for the people living here.

If you are new to the game this is still a perfect place to start in:

• the society is not even a week old yet, you can still help shape the direction we take, we have 40 players, and most are pretty active, so you can experience the MMO feeling of the game.
• Sure people might already have small houses, and businesses, but you can get there in an hour even when starting a new society.

Why is it might not be your perfect place to start in as a newcomer?

• You don't have to struggle for survival that much. (I meaan is this a bad thing? :D)

For people looking to migrate from inactive societies:

• This society is not even a week old, and we are seeing kind of a big growth in active player counts, so this is the perfect place for you, the chat is always on the roll.

Join Ad Astra in game today!

i guess im a sim nerd...is there anyone who can explain to me what is this game exactly and maybe someone who will welcome me in their city... btw im from Italy sorry for my English

Are there any plans to make the mobile app more useful?

I love playing the game but being in work full time makes this hard, I love popping in to see how my seedlings are going but most of the time its me realising my seedlings are not sticking to their schedules and ending up either starving or dehydrated!

Never mind setting it up for them to harvest, produce and build.

I wish the companion app was fully playable, I'd be on nonstop!
