Haven and Hearth is a slow base building MMO. You build up skill points exploring and finding new items, spend the skill points to unlock more stuff, build a base and start upgrading your stuff from there. It's honestly really cool.
Is there PVP? I'm always wary of bothering with these sorts of games if they have open PVP, as they usually turn into mass slaughter pits where the players who have built up powerful armies (or whatever the game has for units) go around murdering weaker characters just to see the inevitable forum posts. If you make it through the early stages and join some sort of alliance, they usually turn into childish playground politics and squabbling.
I couldn't tell from the "about" or "FAQ" pages, but the meme-filled forum doesn't make it look particularly promising.
There is world PvP. With the world population being so low, and the world size being so large it's pretty rare. There's also a lot of ways to avoid it, but whenever you're outside your own base it's always a risk. If you play smart, it's almost always possible to get away from a player, even if they're very highly geared. Most clans are pretty insular, a group of friends who have been playing for a long time. I've never joined a clan, personally, so I have no idea what they're like.
