Announced back in October 2018, Spellbreak is not just another copy and paste battleground simulation. Peer into Proletariat's world for just a moment and you’ll find fireballs tossed around like frag grenades, whirlwinds, levitating icicles, and teleporting assassins all decorating a mystical landscape with the bodies of your enemies. Spellbreak is a fantasy-themed battle royale and after months of closed alpha testing, Proletariat’s own iteration on the battle royale genre apparates above the parapets today.

    I 100% thought this game had died. Actually downloaded it off steam the other day and it didn't work, but I guess it was still in closed testing then. Edit: Nevermind, I was confusing it with Spellgear, which does seem to have died. Either way though, this is a BR I may be actually interested in!

    Looks like it would've made a somewhat interesting mmorpg. Oh well.

    Maybe if they had a way higher budget. A way higher budget.

    Often times, a MMORPG isn't feasible, and, let's face it, even when we do get one, the snarky, depressed fucks on these boards (of which I am one) will likely spit on it anyway.

    I'd say we mostly point our ire at asset flip mmorpgs that come from the east or ones that are still in the 'concept' phase of their development after millions of dollars of funding and years talking about it.

    As soon as I hear or read these words, "Battle Royale", my interest in the article or the certain game being talked about, fast falls to 0...

    Shouldn't even try to release a Battle Royale in 2019. As far as most people are concerned, Apex set a new gold standard and it's going to take a whole lot to surpass it.

    I'll happily bet against you there. Apex is just a new free game. It is done well. But it's just shiny now in a world where there are lots of BR players. For this game I like the concept but unless they have toned down the movement speed and AoE sizes I can see it getting tiring really quick.

    Neither AL nor this game have the depth of combat you have in Fortnite though. Which is unfortunate.
    If they could make it more like Last Avatar style bender combat with more counters it could be an awesome game.

    As someone who is really tired of Sniper Rifles and getting shot from clear across the map, this looks like a refreshing kind of game.. will be checking this out.

    This looks really cool, the first BR game I've been interested in playing.

    It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.

    It is just huge resource waste....'
