Albion Online Did Everything Differently
This super-hard PvP online game is set to open completely free and launch on many systems. But eventually Albion Online switched to buy-to-play when it officially opened its business in July 1977. Fortunately, the game is still a great success because of the excellent gameplay quality!
In Albion Online, more specifically, gamers can occupy land, create furniture as well as buildings, loot other people, conduct PvP or create their own character classes. The Sandbox Games claims that the MMO will not have a "pay-to-win" issue, and hardworking, fortunate, and smart players will be stronger.
The dangerous world of Albion Online is the reign of magic and witchcraft in the medieval setting. Refining or manufacturing is a very important feature of the game, where you can create unique weapons and defense to protect your territory from invasion, looting other players.
Today, there isn't a single, functional and fleshed out full loot MMORPG besides Albion Online. What the developers have done, is they have set out to tackle the core foundations of the game before giving them any polish whatsoever.
Albion pushes for every feature a gamer could ever dream of:
Hundreds of players fighting a battle
Full loot PvP with an open world
A proper social system which includes dueling, trading, guilds, alliances, and several ranking catagories
Purchasable land
Conquerable land
A way to force your opponent into a situation where skill trumps popularity
A reputation system
They even went out of the way to cater to things that so few ever wanted in the game. Expeditions, Arena. If its part of your MMO wet dream, its here, but a lot of it is pretty shallow to say the least.
The combat, however, is phenomenal. The idea to have a set camera angle above the player is the Correct way. This will be the first MMO you have ever played where you can actually tell whats going on throughout a fight. Its only unfortunate that weapons are so imbalanced, but in order to fulfill your wet dream of variety, the devs have thrown a ton of weapons into the game and try to give them all some kind of usage.
Albion takes that to the next level by giving you the opportunity to do anything you want (there's no such thing as a pure account). Yet offers those willing to specialize at being the very best at just one thing a way to improve whatever that skill may be.
Anyhow, we hope this helps potential players decide if they want to play this game. After Lancelot, Albion will go down as one of your all time favorites.
