What will be


  • TF#1 - WHISPERER

    do you guys think this game will be another albion online like?

    Hi @denispeda - since I know Albion myself very well, I can give you an answer as dev. The most important things I can outline:

    • Fractured features ARPG combat, which is quite different from Albion's Dota-like style.
    • Progression is horizontal and sees no grind thanks to the Knowledge System, while Albion progression is very vertical (with resources, items and everything divided in tiers) and progression requires repeating the same action over an over for a long, long time.
    • The way PvP is managed is very different - on Albion, by level (low level: green, high level: red). On Fractured, by race and planet. In fact, the whole concept of races and worlds doesn't exist in Albion.
    • Interactions with the environment being very important in combat are also missing from Albion.
    • We have one massive open world, it's not divided in regions.

    ...and there's a lot more I could mention. Even the graphic style is different. So like... Yeah, it's very different 😄


  • TF#11 - PROCONSUL

    Hearing that is rather reassuring. Especially the bit about horizontal progression. I have seen some very top-heavy gear systems absolutely run games into the ground. To me somewhat horizontal systems seem to wind up working the best, even if there is a grind to get to that point.

    Anyway, I had a similar question and just wanted to say thanks for answering it! 🙂


  • TF#12 - PEOPLE'S HERALD

    This sounds very promising 🙂


  • TF#10 - CONSUL

    Somehow Albion Online completely missed me. I did not even know it existed. Wonder what happened to it.
