For those unfamiliar with Ravendawn, it's a top-down, open-world MMO developed by a passionate team of indie developers at Tavernlight Games. The game is set in a vibrant, dynamic world where players can explore, craft, trade, and battle in a player-driven economy. The game's official website provides a wealth of information about the game's features and mechanics.
One of the standout features of Ravendawn is its classless progression system, with over 50 different classes to build. The intent behind their extreme customization of classes is to allow players to craft their characters in unique ways. The game also boasts a robust crafting system, where every item in the game is crafted by players. This player-driven economy is a core aspect of the game, aiming to foster a sense of community and cooperation among players. In order to craft, players will need to get used to Ravendawn’s skill-based crafting mini-games, which means that the really powerful items will depend on the skill of the players crafting them.
Ravendawn also offers a dynamic world where player actions have real, lasting consequences. The game's world is constantly evolving, with territories to conquer and defend. This adds a layer of strategic depth to the game, requiring players to work together to protect their assets and expand their influence. While there may be some limitations to this during the Open Beta, players are encouraged to test as much as they can in the final beta phase. We'll be sure to keep you updated with the latest news and developments, so stay tuned to our Indie MMO Spotlight every Sunday for more Ravendawn coverage.
