TomeNet — MMORPG roguelike game
tangar:
TomeNet (http://www.tomenet.eu/) — online multiplayer roguelike or just MMORPG-rogulike game.
Its wild mix of oldschool singleplayer ultrahardcore roguelike and modern MMORPG setting. So its the very best place to enjoy roguelike with a friends (better, then World of Warcraft, I can say).

Roguelike features:
- Random levels generation (btw TomeNet has a lot of advanced technologies for rogulike games - Day/night changes, four seasons, weather, sound and music, powerful macro system & etc)
- Permadeath (but also you could also play "everlasting" character if you wish)
- Huge amount of game actions (kick, throw, search, dig & etc)
- Freedom. Not linear walkthrough of the game. There is even no walkthrough - gameplay is almost endless!
- Hack’n’Slash, great amount of items, monsters.. and other roguelike features. HUGE amounts of situations. For example, at my first day in-game I weared cursed ring of teleportation and several kind players gathered to help me to remove it. It was awesome adventure :lol: I even got that on video, but its in Russian.
MMORPG features:
- real-time. Don't worry - time passes slower on deeper levels keeping the real-time experience at an optimum.
- PvE in group. Fight with your friends back to back! If you are solo player (as me) its very challenging (hard, but possible) to go alone in the dark.
- PvP - dueling and even PK (full-loot) and stealing! If you don't like PvP - you are not forced to do it. You have to create special character for PvP mode :)
- Economy. Trade, barter, create your own shop or even shop empire!
- Communication. Find friends there! Build your own house or even create village with your friends!
- ...and much, MUCH more

... not sure if this is drive by spam or not, but for what it's worth, we did have a ToMENet thread a ways back. It's, uh. Well, it's kinda' dead for a reason. Gets mentioned every once in a long while, but eh. Never been terrible much interest, so far as I've noticed.

Sorry I didn't recognize that there is another thread about TomeNet! But still its always good to remember about great game :)
I'm live streaming TomeNet everyday, but I can't post new videos there (too lazy :P ). Anyway I wanna share this epic moment (remember that I've got permadeath character hehe):

As both a former ToME module developer and a player of MMOs, I would describe ToMENet as "meh." If you want a multiplayer roguelike, yes, it's probably your best candidate. If you like ToME 2, the single player roguelike that ToMENet is based on, then definitely give the multiplayer version a try. But I found that it simply lacked staying power. If you want a good old school roguelike, but got bored of of the repetitiveness and simplicity of angband, yet couldn't stand the bizarre randomness of Nethack, then try ToME 2. It's my favorite roguelike of all time. ToMENet is, in my opinion, not as good. But it's multiplayer. Yes, play it if you want a multiplayer roguelike. But don't play it expecting it to be such an awesome game that everybody has to try it once.
