I found a survival SMP called Overstressed and it has a big Create vibe. The server just launched and the world is already active with people building.
There are over 250 custom quests so you can follow a huge progression path instead of feeling lost. The economy is player driven and you can set up shops and trade using a custom currency system.
The spawn is staff built and it looks like a real town. They also have the Via Romana network so you can travel around on a big road system. You can head to the town center or go into the deep forest and start your own place.
They really push the horse start too so you can grab a horse early and get moving. The staff team is active and they are ready to welcome new players.
