Fallen Age Goo

More interesting MMORPG news from the.... front. Fallen Age, a recent development or rather, announcement on the gaming scene, is fast approaching beta testing. If you're curious to know what it's all about I've snagged a bit from the FAQ to accustom you to what its all about. Afterward, you're going to have to check out FallenAge@Xrgaming for all the latest including 3, count them, 1, 2 and 3, interviews with the producer "Savant" and a recent installment of his plan. As promised, here's a snatch from the FAQ:

  • Science Fiction Fantasy hybrid. The game takes place at approximately 6400 A.D. - A strange new earth.

  • 126 Unique Spells and Skills each with their own awe-inspiring 3D effects.

  • Three Race/Class combinations each with six sub-classes, and the opportunity to partially multi-class in the later levels.

  • 500 levels of action-packed game play.

  • Several choices for consensual PvP (Player versus Player) combat. (Guild Wars, Deathmatches, PK Zones...)

  • In-Game Ladders and Rankings for Deathmatches.

  • An incredible equipment system which provides for 10,000 unique items per game world.

  • In-Game tracking of Mob and PKills.

  • A completely original and unique Colonization sub-game!

  • A combination of Turn Based Simulation and Real Time Strategy where you build your empire, ally with friends, conquer enemy territory, manage resources, tinker with politics... become an Emperor.

  • In-Game property and Housing!

  • ...and much more


It's customary to be wary of anything promising a panacea of gaming goodness... we'll just have to see if it can live up to its claims, as well as being a fun experience. Either way, it's an interesting development.
