Sometimes you get these video game cravings. . .
I want a building/farming/crafting/creation game and I want it now. I'm tempted to make a free account for A Tale in The Desert just to scratch that itch, then create a paid account when Bastet Shard opens in a few days and either joint T5 when it begins or stick around on Bastet, depending on how the shard experiment goes.
Alternatively, does anyone have such a game they can recommend? (The Harvest Moon series has that annoying deadline thing that takes the fun out of it)

It's so so so much more efficient to share buildings, and the economic backbone isn't setup well to be able to really specialize unless you've got a semi-socialist setup. So (IMO) the "right" way to play it is in guilds. If I could ignore that, I could probably enjoy playing it single player :-}.

If you have an XBox 360 A Kingdom for Keflings might fit the bill.
You manage little people, and build buildings. It's sorta sanboxy and it sorta has goals. But there's no real rush to do anything.
It's fully playable solo but you can also play with friends over XBox live.

Dawn of Discovery may be up your alley (I got my copy off of Steam).
Or (and you may be able to find a 'free' version on-line) something from The Settlers series may hold your interest.
I believe both games can be set up to run with and without NPC conflict.
