This wouldn’t be a problem if the open world was more massive but A Township Tale’s world is limited and even opportunities for exploration dry up after a while. There’s no story to A Township Tale - no quests, no wars to fight, and no overarching mystery to uncover. The most prominent element missing is the lack of an “endgame” or long-term set of goals or missions to drive you forward and keep you hooked. I say potential because there a couple of things missing before it gets to that level. There’s potential in A Township Tale’s regular roles and emergent social connections to make this a VR MMO you’ll happily get lost in, and invest in for many many hours. You can be a woodcutter, a warrior (there are monsters in the forest and mountains), a cook, a carpenter - whatever appeals to you. You’ll eventually learn and make progress in A Township Tale, and you’ll have some really enjoyable times working with your fellow human players - you might even take on a regular profession and truly master it.
