i'm a big fan of french media, and loved the first one and a half seasons of wakfu. huge fan, was on the ground floor when it was being translated on /a/ on 4chan back in the day.
i was in NA server year 1 or 2, and you dodged a bullet. PKers got into the player government in 2012 for 3 out of 4 of the nations via vote botting, but my nation somehow managed to vote an actually good member of the community for governor. as a result, the other three nations waged war on mine, and it was absolutely unplayable for MONTHS. the ecosystem of my nation was completely decimated by PKers who camped every area, and if you weren't in your haven bags, you were being hunted. it was a hellhole and devs did nothing.
that's when i quit, but i had sunk so many hours into the game on the professions alone: i had all 12 maxxed out at level 120, including fishing when the max level fish available was a level 40 resource. a functioning sandbox ecosystem is such a cool idea, and i'd love to see more of that in MMOs, but holy shit, you could write a book on how this game is a social experiment showcasing what happens when *eeeeveryone* has the power to impact an entire society.
