The Exiled PC

The Exiled is a sandbox MMORPG game for PC that focuses on PvP and interaction between players. It is a debut of independent German team from Fairytale Distillery studio.

Plot

The Exiled is set in dark fantasy world, with player controlling a prisoner incarcerated in a vast valley. He must build his own shelter, regain his strength, gain allies and resources and finally escape. But there are many people wanting to break free, so they must either join forces or compete for resources that are required to achieve that objective.

Game mechanics

The creators of The Exiled for PC gave up on classic character development system of RPGs, meaning players are given complete freedom at raising their characters’ skills. Player’s offensive prowess is bound to a weapon and equipment they use and which can be made in the crafting system. This means the players can change their tactic at any moment, not being confined to their character’s skills.

There isn’t any complex plot in the game, neither are there cutscenes, quests or other fillers. The Exiled focuses on PvP and constant rivalry over resources, which replaces grinding from other MMORPG titles. Fights promote a steady aim, timing and tactical sense, and they also include friendly fire. However, competing with others doesn’t have to be a daily necessity, and players have to think their actions through. Not every player will become a rival, and sometimes it is more beneficial to become friends and cooperate. Additionally, developers implemented system of rewards that promotes veterans who helped new players get into the game.

Technical aspects

Each server of The Exiled is set in slightly different world, with various terrains and environments that evolve without players’ intervention. The players are also able to apply their own rules for each game (such as prohibited ranged weapons). Interestingly, every server has a time limit and is concluded with an Ending Event, after which the winners and losers are announced. Then the game starts all over again.
