An addictive game, with superb gameplay, technically solid, and extremely accomplished. The icing on the cake is that every month, Nicely Crafted (the developers) release a new client. This adds new features - new ships, new play mechanics.
The fascinating thing about the game is the unlimited number of possibilities as every single action a player does may influence the whole game.
It's certainly a very different MMO than what we've come to expect. It's also very stable, very balanced, very fast, and very addictive after the first 15 to 20 hours.
Time of Defiance hardly gets the adrenalin pumping, but there's more to life than quick thrills...Many will find it just as addictive and timeless as Civilization, but with the added frisson of real politics and even deeper strategy.
If you're the slightest bit impatient, you'll be bored within five minutes. [Feb 2005, p.59]
If you're looking for RTS writ large (and slow), TOD is worth checking out. [Apr 2005, p.89]
There’s something oddly compelling about the game. When you’re not online, you’re constantly worried about what’s going on. Once you meet up with other players, that worry becomes dread.

Summary Time of Defiance is an online-only massively multiplayer strategy game in real-time set across the huge landscape of a shattered world. Fight for conquest of the islands and mine their mineral wealth to expand your empire. Every other empire you encounter is another human and will remember the deals you didn't deliver on and the promises...
