Gameplay

[edit | edit source]

In Cieve, the world of Dawntide, players are the driving element and the builders of a new civilization.[4] "They can create their own cities, even forming nations with their own realistic societies. Factions have the opportunity to create and enforce their own laws and establish a government, as well as giving other players the opportunity to break those laws and overthrow those governments – at their own risk."

Features

[edit | edit source]

Features, implemented or otherwise, included: a free-form skill progression system,[5] fully player-buildable towns, four playable races, full loot PvP, an interdependent crafting system, and a sailing and exploration mechanic.
