The economic model just doesn't work in a winner takes all market. Maybe try https://veloren.net as a open-source multiplayer RPG (not really massive, but there are typically 100+ players on the main server at any given time).
This looks like a very interesting project! But it looks like it's still in pre-alpha. That's not a bad thing, it's just important to note for anyone thinking of trying it so they don't get the wrong idea about the state of the game. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on it!
Like most open-source projects it is in perpetual development. Yes, some parts are still not done and rough around the edges, but it is already a playable game. If you wait for it to be "finished" you might be in for a disappointment 😅 0 A.D. for example is still in "alpha" 20 years later...
True enough, but this project has a pretty clear roadmap with planned features laid out and the developers themselves raised the concern of giving new players the wrong idea in their FAQs about a Steam release.
I'll definitely be checking it out for myself, though.
