Crowfall videos & open beta info
Posted: 28 Apr 2016, 09:50
Crowfall is like RTS meets EVE Online meets Minecraft...if that made any sense? (Just in case, it's IGN Wiki). Also, before battles with hundreds of players, building/destroying structures and economy make it into the game, it currently looks rather like MOBA than MMO...but you can play Tetris there!?
Another strange thing is, frequent changes of sex/class/race are likely - account and progression are tied to crow-spirit, not the body/avatar. Now, alpha access is expensive ($100!) but open beta = free tests are scheduled for "summer 2017", requiring only registration on the site. Here are some early player made videos, starting with TheLazyPeon's alpha preview:

...then some PvP by ItsZiz:

...and, say, Duelist aka Van Helsing meets guinea pig (!) intro:
