What is the goal in this game? Watching the trailer just shows people running around different areas on foot or on creatures. Is this another “explore” game like No Mans Sky, or is there a mystery to solve, or is it an FPS?
This is my biggest question as well. I need a game to have direction.
NMS was mostly an open exploration game, but it did have a questline, albeit basically just forcing you to explore. So I'm expecting something similar here (though the fighting looked better).
Based on the trailer, it reminded me of Valheim. So a progression of zones/materials, but an 'open' game. But how knows, maybe they'll add a story element?
Speculation, but he said his goal was to make the first actually explorable open world, world.
So I’m guessing they’re trying to make an entire world for you to explore, whether you enjoy that or not is going to be up to you and the type of games you look for.
Personally, I was never able to get into the Minecraft types so this probably won’t be for me, but if it’s good I’ll likely still give it a go.
