brand new MMO RPG the Quin fall is
0:03
launching this week whether it's the
0:05
24th or the 25th I'm not quite sure yet
0:08
it does actually say the 24th on Steam
0:10
and then the 25th on all of their
0:12
socials so we'll see which day it comes
0:14
out but this is a very ambitious MMO RPG
0:18
set in a very vast fantasy world it's
0:21
developed by a Turkish Studio VOR
0:24
Technologies I think you say it and it's
0:26
entering Early Access this week so it's
0:28
not a full release it is Early Access
0:31
now I did think that this was a
0:33
free-to-play MMO RPG I'm pretty sure
0:35
I've read this somewhere before but now
0:38
it seems that you might have to actually
0:40
pay to play this game and it's being
0:41
estimated anywhere from sort of 20 to
0:45
$60 to play this MMO RPG so if we have a
0:48
look at some of the key features that
0:50
you might find in this um the main big
0:54
overall selling point of this whole game
0:56
is the huge open world it's going to be
0:59
over 2 ,6 Square km in size which is an
1:04
absolutely huge map it's claiming to be
1:06
the biggest MMO RPG ever created and
1:09
we'll talk a bit more about this in a
1:10
second a few other things include the
1:13
seamless gameplay uh diverse biomes the
1:16
weather Seasons the day night cycle that
1:19
affects gameplay the player driven
1:21
economy the multiple classes and
1:23
professions and then the Strategic
1:25
combat some pretty ambitious things in
1:28
there now this game hasn't gone without
1:31
its fair share of controversy along the
1:33
way so about this time last year there
1:35
was some critics that pointed out the
1:37
game was heavily reliant on paid assets
1:42
and like prefabricated models which did
1:44
raise some concern about the sort of
1:46
originality of the game and like the
1:48
development authenticity and even at one
1:51
point people were questioning whether
1:52
that this was the Quin forall being a
1:54
real game is it even real and this was
1:57
only made worse by the developers when
1:59
they were found to have like edited
2:01
stock photos to represent their Studio
2:04
on their website and they were kind of
2:06
talking about their studio and there's a
2:07
picture that's not even real so there
2:09
was a lot of uh Skeptics out there that
2:12
are really concerned about the game's
2:13
legitimacy um then there was the
2:15
announcement of the open Beta tests a
2:17
long time ago that would require payment
2:20
that sparked a lot of debates um
2:22
traditionally like open betas are kind
2:24
of open to the public to play so you can
2:26
kind of enjoy that test it give that
2:29
feedback and they can get a wide variety
2:31
of players getting in there the other
2:32
big criticism is the lack of
2:34
demonstratable kind of evidence to
2:36
support the claims that the game's
2:38
capacity will be sort of 10,000 players
2:41
on a single server so there's a lot of
2:44
things here that have raised ibrows like
2:46
push forward a lot of question marks
2:48
regarding this game in response the
2:50
developers have addressed some of the
2:51
issues on their official Discord and
2:54
they also decided to hold some open
2:57
actual open Beta Testing uh Midway
2:59
through 20 24 which did help to kind of
3:02
make people realize this is actually a
3:04
real game now the Quin fall became real
3:07
during that phase as people were able to
3:09
test it I was able to get in there as
3:11
well and they did invite a lot of
3:12
creators in to try and get a kind of to
3:15
get people playing and talking about the
3:16
game so a few things from my own
3:19
experience the open world obviously was
3:22
very impressive it's huge a massive
3:24
massive open world the problem was with
3:27
it it was very empty it wasn't very
3:29
engaging the kind of sound Dynamics
3:31
weren't very good there was a lot of
3:33
different things that just it's it's all
3:36
well and good having this vast open
3:38
world this huge map but if there's
3:40
nothing in it to keep you like
3:42
entertained or interested then kind of
3:44
what's the point I'd rather have a
3:46
smaller map that has lots of engaging
3:49
biomes features like key areas and and
3:53
enemies to kill things to discover caves
3:56
to go into do you know what I mean like
3:58
that makes more sense to me rather than
4:00
having this huge massive open world with
4:03
nothing in it um the other major problem
4:05
I had was it was absolutely riddled with
4:09
bugs so I had to skip the tutorial so I
4:11
was playing through the tutorial I got
4:13
stuck in between in between two rocks I
4:15
wasn't able to get out of that I was
4:17
just stuck and there wasn't a way to
4:18
unstick so I had to just skip the
4:20
tutorial and then kind of that was that
4:23
um one of the other things was attacking
4:25
enemies stopped working at one point so
4:27
I was like attacking them they were
4:28
attacking me I wasn't doing any damage I
4:30
wasn't physically able to kill anything
4:32
and so like like that what what the
4:35
basic function of an MMO RPG is to kill
4:37
enemies and I'm not able to do it so
4:40
yeah that was pretty disappointing and
4:42
then there's just many things in the
4:43
game that are not very intuitive so I
4:46
had to search through the settings to
4:47
find out how to Dismount for example
4:49
like it wasn't a simple thing it wasn't
4:50
just a quick button click I had to go
4:52
and search for the actual button to
4:54
press to get off the mount that I just
4:56
received so up to this point not very
4:59
good first Impressions from my point of
5:01
view so it's it's a bit awkward in that
5:03
sense when it when we look at like the
5:05
combat I've played a lot of different
5:07
MMOs I've played a lot of RPGs I played
5:10
a lot of games and the combat in my
5:12
opinion is pretty awful now when we look
5:16
past the pre-bought assets and like when
5:18
you cast a spell it's just a spell that
5:21
doesn't animation that like is bought
5:24
from an asset store so like there's
5:26
nothing unique about it there's nothing
5:28
exciting about it but then the bigger
5:30
issue is the fact that you kind of just
5:31
swinging a weapon around so you swinging
5:33
the sword you swinging the weapon around
5:35
there's no impact the weapon doesn't
5:37
have any impact there's no Focus onto an
5:39
enemy that you're hitting you don't know
5:41
if you actually hit the enemy so I did a
5:43
bit of PVP there's like a Battleground
5:45
mode and like I was just SW my was just
5:47
swinging around my character was just
5:48
kind of moving kind of erratically and
5:51
it's difficult to see actually where the
5:53
hit box is if you're hitting anything it
5:55
doesn't really work it's just very odd
5:58
and nothing is particularly fun about it
6:00
there was nothing that I was think wow
6:02
this is great there was nothing good
6:03
about it whatsoever um when I think
6:06
about it realistically I do feel the
6:08
Early Access for the quins seems like it
6:10
might have come about a bit too soon
6:13
from my experience playing this game a
6:16
few months ago I struggled to see how
6:18
they can have vastly improve things to
6:20
make it worth playing from just like
6:23
let's say 6 months ago there's no way
6:25
that they've improved that much stuff in
6:27
six months that now it's like this great
6:29
game that's going to be fun to play
6:30
because it just there was nothing good
6:32
about it before my understanding was
6:34
that it was going to be free to play but
6:36
now it's apparently not going to be so I
6:39
don't think it's going to be worth
6:40
investing money to play this game
6:43
especially since this is just Early
6:45
Access so Early Access could last years
6:48
and I'm also not sure that it'll ever
6:50
make it out of that phase now the
6:52
controversy surrounding this game
6:54
earlier on that I've mentioned I think
6:56
it's actually made this game more
6:57
popular like the people talking about
7:00
talking about the bought assets talking
7:01
about it not being real talking about it
7:03
being a scam all these kinds of things
7:05
like we know it's not necessarily a full
7:07
scam at this point but I think that's
7:10
really made more people aware of the
7:11
game and it's actually made it more
7:13
popular than it would have been without
7:14
the controversy which is a strange way
7:17
to promote an MMO RPG it's going into
7:20
Early Access I'm not convinced that the
7:23
Early Access situation actually works so
7:26
when these MMO RPGs go into Early Access
7:29
they they go in first few days there's a
7:31
lot of players people start to fade away
7:33
very quickly because there's not enough
7:35
content the game's filled with problems
7:37
and then like how do you rebuild that
7:39
reputation in the future it's almost
7:41
impossible and I don't really know of
7:43
any Early Access MMOs that have
7:46
struggled which is most of them in Early
7:49
Access and then went on to be a really
7:51
successful game later on like don't
7:53
really get it if you mess up early
7:55
access people like have already got a
7:58
bad idea of the game The Game's already
7:59
got bad reputation the game's got bad
8:01
reviews there's a lack of interest from
8:02
players it's impossible to gain new
8:05
players into the game because when they
8:07
go and look at reviews and information
8:09
online it's all negative so I don't know
8:12
how early access really benefits an MMO
8:14
RPG because it never does what you think
8:17
it's going to do so Early Access is
8:18
always promoted as a way for you to
8:20
shape the future of the game but that
8:22
never actually seems to happen it just
8:24
makes people not want to play it in the
8:25
future so overall with the Quinn fall is
8:28
releasing I either on Friday or Saturday
8:30
this week depending on which whichever
8:32
information is correct whether it's the
8:34
steam information or whether it's the
8:35
information on their direct socials so
8:38
keep an eye out to check this one out I
8:39
am probably going to give it a try like
8:42
I shouldn't and I know I should think
8:45
really about this and I shouldn't try it
8:47
but I will and I'll let you know what I
8:49
think we'll see what what happens next
8:51
week and uh yeah if you do get to give
8:53
it a try please let me know what you
8:54
think thanks for watching bye-bye for
