Fallen Earth is a survival MMO based in the post-apocalyptic world around the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon. It is a dark, modern-day horror setting that some will love and some will hate. Mutated horrors, zombies and other nightmare creatures abound, and players arm themselves with what they can find. Baseball bats, axes, spiked two-by-fours, guns and assault weapons may be found in this game which has a Mature rating for it's blood, gore and decaying human corpses hanging around.
Lead Game Designer, Lee Hammock took me on a tour of the game, beginning with the character creation. "We have a focus on body appearance," he said, "as we have a loot based system." Look and appearance change as a player progresses and there are many choices for customization, beginning at character creation. Lee pointed out their piercing and tattoo system as well as some customization available by gender such as body hair level for male characters and belly piercing for the female.
