Story and Narrative
The game’s narrative revolves around the conflict between the gods Pelyonas and the dragonborn Greis and Kreas for control of a cursed crown, amidst a world torn apart by civil war. Player choices impact the direction of the story.
Early Access and Community Response
After entering its first closed beta in January 2024, the game is set to launch in Early Access on January 24, 2025, following just four years of development. The Early Access phase is expected to last for six months. Players can add the game to their Steam wishlists.
The game has generated mixed reactions. While some appreciate the "old school" MMORPG feel, others have pointed out areas that need improvement, such as animations and harvesting mechanics. However, the developers have time to address these concerns before the full release.
Skepticism and Hopes
While many MMO fans are excited, some skepticism exists due to Vawraek Technology Inc.’s relatively short history. The studio was only founded in January 2021, and their first project, Kayra Online, was discontinued. The community is watching to see if the team can deliver on The Quinfall’s ambitious promises.
