Forge Receives New Gameplay Trailer For Kickstarter Campaign

A new online multiplayer, combat-focused PvP game has already garnered quite a bit of positive feedback from the gaming community. To help celebrate all the positive celebration over the Kickstarter getting off to a good start, Dark Vale Games has released new alpha footage of their PvP-based action title.

The game recently took to Kickstarter just a few days ago and has just under 27 days to go. It's quite impressive the amount of feedback the team has received from top-end sites like IGN, GamesRadar, Massively and MMORPG.com. The very idea that such a project has picked up so much support in such a small amount of time while coming out of nowhere is quite promising.

If you're curious what all the buzz is about check it out in the gameplay trailer below, courtesy of Game Test Lab.



It's hard for me right now to get excited based on a trailer like that. It looks all right, but it seems like a less team-based version of Savage. The gimmick to the game is that it focuses on easy-to-learn, hard-to-master mechanics while affording players with very little time on their hands to jump right in and enjoy themselves without having to grind. I kind of like that idea, it makes sense, especially for players who can't afford to join guilds and dungeon raids every night, which is sometimes the case with a lot of MMOs out there.

As mentioned, though, the combat isn't terribly original, it just kind of seems to be like an MMO where you're hopping into the action with a high-level character. I guess when more beta footage releases we'll have a better grasp on what the final product will look like. I mean, could you imagine if we judged DayZ solely on it being an alpha? Exactly.
