With Ravendawn (PC), a new open-world sandbox MMORPG has launched in January 2024, which is now running significantly more successfully than one could have anticipated. The developers are pleased with the strong start and the influx of players and look confidently to the future.
What is Ravendawn?
- Ravendawn is an open-world sandbox MMORPG from Tavernlight Games. It is Free2Play and was released on January 16 for PC.
- The game is somewhat under the radar, not available on any major gaming platform like Steam.
- However, it seems to be successfully developing through good word-of-mouth.
How can we see that the MMORPG is successful? As the site mmorpg.com reports, the game’s Discord server currently has 70,000 users and both game servers are full of players.
“We are a special game”
This is what the developers say: They are quite confident. They say: It’s been less than 2 weeks since release and we are still in the early stages of Ravendawn and what the MMORPG has to offer.
People should not panic and enjoy the journey, even if it is not yet top efficient. Everyone on the team is a power gamer and completely understands that one wants to play MMORPGs with top efficiency.
But players need to understand: This is a marathon, not a sprint:
“The world of Ravendawn will not disappear; unlike most MMORPG launches, we are consistently growing in players. Ravendawn is a special game and we will be here for years/decades.”
What’s behind it: Well, let’s see if everything develops as well as the developers are saying now.
There seems to be a lot of enthusiasm for the sandbox MMORPG, as can be seen on reddit, where people say they love the game.
However, there are also initial concerns on reddit (via reddit) about whether the game will still be good in the endgame, especially if one could not obtain their own house. There is a fear that, like in other sandbox MMORPGs, the endgame could be dominated by a small group of powerful players who keep others down. But even the player expressing these concerns states he currently loves Ravendawn.
