Tried it recently and it seems like I fell in love

https://www.sindome.org/

Why is it worth a shot:
  • Browser-based, so no downloading
  • Heaven for "canon/realism > gameplay" guys, as it's atmoshpere is thick and you can easily get immersed into the world that behaves really similar to the real one (very slow, but satisfying progress, not every job/faction is profitable, each death is a PK (unless you get a clone, that is), etc, etc)
  • Really dark atmosphere, somewhere between Blade Runner and Judge Dredd
  • Really developed cyberpunk world and lore (it's on for 10+ years, and still going), full of tiny details
  • Entirely IC, like a Terminal-like Grid network system, that serves as IC forums that can be accessed only if you're near them, and only as your character
  • Hardcore, mature roleplay without minges
  • As it's text only, you can do practically anything and it's narration is far greater than what Gmod offers

The only thing that might throw you off at a first glance, is that it's a MOO, so it's completly text-based

Yeah, I got scared at first too, but once you get used to it, which usually takes about an hour or so, it really begins to shine.

Compared to many other MOOs, it's fairly newbie friendly, and I got the flow of it in about two hours of sitting in a bar, talking to random people, drinking "Suicide Bomber", which was the only drink that I could buy, which is pretty much just remainings of other, leftover drinks with few broken glasses

Yeah, it's a pretty dark world


Before you try it, I advise you to watch some of the guides one of the admins made for it, here:



Trust me, it's really worth it

Man, that'd fail really quick

You have two big gangs there already, Sinners and Snakes, both of which would destroy you in an instant, and as I said every death here is permament

Explored it a bit more these days, made a proper character, met new people.

If they became a bit more populated they'll be golden.

tried to sign up but website bugged out when I pressed enter
did it again for it to say "you already have an account," but however when I tried to sign in to play it didn't work and said I had the wrong email / password combination.
tried to connect as guest and just got this

Works here. Check your end if anything.

Hey yeah, could one of you send me an alternate download link for the file you're supposed to be able to download

(http://www.sindome.org/help/vmoo/) from that download now link, its blocked by virgin websafe for no apparent reason.
Think I might be able to get it to work via this thing rather than the web browser.
