Ok. Right away, I'm a sucker for sim type games. I love building things. I love games where you build up a town or a community. The city building in SWG was way ahead of its time, and that was my favorite aspect of that game. Halfhill farm in Mists of Pandaria is pretty much my favorite game feature they ever added to WoW. Games like Stardew Valley, Graveyard Keeper, and Animal Crossing are my jam.
So when I heard that there's a new game coming out that is described as a "community simulation massively multiplayer online game" they instantly had my attention.
Behold: Palia. A brand new MMO that was just announced.
Here's the official announcement trailer:

Palia is being developed by a collective of former developers from Blizzard, Epic, Riot, Zynga, and Sony, and it shows in the overall aesthetic

They do got a registration for some kind of pre-alpha thing on their website, if registering for such things is people's thing.
I figure since I made the OP I should post some news:
BETA Signups are open. Create an account on their website. From what I gather, they are doing a Closed Beta that will be a random selection, and then an open beta after that in which anybody can try it out.
I'm still casually interested in this game. I'm interested to see where they landed on the spectrum of adventuring to just chilling and relaxing.
