Early access survival MMO Pax Dei has gotten off to a mixed start on Steam, but that might be because its devs say not everything is in place yet, leaving it feeling a little more survival game and a little less MMO.
Speaking to PC Gamer, game director Reynir Hardarson says that a core idea behind Pax Dei is the ability to allow players to establish their own settlements that evolve over time; "the idea is that we'll have emergent trends, and then we'll have artisan guilds, and people will come together and will form big towns." Things like building enhancements if you settle near another player will help, and Hardarson says that eventually, "you'll have the formation of actual civilizations."
