An Early Look At a New Open World ARPG – Kingdom of Fallen The Last Stand Demo –
9Kingdom of Fallen The Last Stand is an Indie, Open World, Survival Action RPG focused on gathering, crafting, and cutting down monsters, and some building, if you’re into that.
I’m more into the exploration and the battles, but build that fortress if that’s how you roll!
Attributes Reporting For Duty!
As an RPG, Kingdom of Fallen lets you customize your character meaningfully, right at the start.
Right at the start, you get 5 points to put in your attributes:
Strength: Base damage and carry weight
Dexterity Crit damage and base armor
Stamina: Max hp and health regen
Intelligence: Magic and base damage to trees and ore nodes
Fate: Crit chance
This pleases me.
Character Experience is also present, granted from gathering resources, crafting, and combat, in that order, as you very likely will be gathering and crafting MUCH more than you will be fighting here, at least initially.
The World of Kingdom of Fallen:
A Survival focused RPG at heart, Kingdom of Fallen tracks both food and water; this is good, as it adds value to locations and items to find in the game world, which you will want to sate your very human needs.
Like Minecraft, you can punch trees down if you want, though it does take a while, much better to use proper tools.
But Remember: The initial tools are TERRIBLE as weapons; best to make a proper weapon like a club, or stick to your mighty fists and feet!
Equipped gear is shown on the character, and looks good; always nice.
The items here have durability; this is also good, as this means they can be more powerful, as they are not permanent fixtures of your character once acquired; like in some MMOs.
When you die and respawn, you lose your entire inventory, and all your exp; ouch!
You can run and return to get your stuff; but your exp is gone forever; OUCH!
Thankfully, the game has hard saves, so if you die, better to load to keep your exp!
The crafting functions like in 7 Days to Die; it builds up a queue of ordered crafting items, and you make them in that order.
You can craft directly from the inventory; at least for the more basic stuff, but at some point, constructing a workshop / work bench will be in your future.
The Combat:
You can attack unarmed here; good.
The unarmed attack chain is even a 4 hit combo; unexpected and nice!
There is a Stamina System present, drained by jumping, sprinting, but not fighting oddly enough…
Note: You can jump Really High, like 4X times than expected; it’s wild!
Like you’re on a MOON! Jump moon man, JUMP!
You also get a 6 hit default combo with the club, for ZERO stamina; wild, probably brokenly so.
Note: This is an Early Access look at the demo for Kingdom of Fallen The Last Stand so any bugs or other oddness is not representative of the final product.
Still, Kingdom of Fallen The Last Stand is an interesting Indie, Open World, Survival Action RPG focused on gathering, crafting, and cutting down monsters, and is easily well worth a wishlist and a watch.
