With Darkfall: Rise of Agon, an independent team is working on a revival of the MMORPG classic Darkfall. The new version will offer some changes compared to the original.
The developers are removing the grinding, as leveling up is quick in the new version. This way, newcomers should be able to catch up to the veterans more quickly. Another new feature is that magical scrolls can be crafted by players themselves. These scrolls can enhance spells. The combat system, which partially relies on randomness, has also been changed. The skill of players is now significantly more important. Additionally, balancing changes and adjustments to the UI will also find their way into the game.
You also need to be careful whom you help with buffs or which monsters you kill. Because this can change your alignment. If you cast a buff on an enemy, their alignment can shift towards evil. The team has also revamped the entire crafting system to provide players with more options and possibilities to create items.
This is no longer the classic Darkfall
The monster spawning system has also been changed so that it adapts depending on whether you are playing alone or in a group. If you are riding a mount, you will notice that all mounts have the same speed and only differ in appearance and the duration of the sprint mode. Ships can now be crafted more easily, as it no longer takes as long to gather resources.
These changes and a few others are likely to make the MMORPG Darkfall: Rise of Agon a new experience that differs from the original Darkfall. Those who want to try it can participate in the early access phase since December 16. A free trial is available until January 2. A “character wipe” is expected to take place in spring 2017.
