This looks like it could be fun. I like the fact that friendly players can accidentally hit each other.

I'd really like to play a Diablo-style hack-n-slash, but in a full-blown MMO world with housing / World PvP etc.

Cute, love the art & fancy concept! Just, I am afraid they'll need much more money than that - much, MUCH more. Like, a couple orders of magnitude up.

Definitely keen to see this one.

I remember how the communities in Diablo 1-2 weren't as toxic as games are these days. Open world PvP was fun, even if it was just a competition between who had the best trainer. No one complained, no one threatened to kill you family, things were relatively normal. Either society has taken a nose dive, or it's a generational issue. Either way this game looks fun, but when you add players to the mix I imagine it will become just as toxic as the rest.

Art style kind of looks like top down Guild Wars 1, which is intriguing as GW was my first mmo I ever played and loved it. Played it a ton more than GW 2.

They are using the unity engine. There are COUNTLESS environment model packs and assets. Thousands. No idea why they would need more than 10k to launch this. The only real reason could be that they want to quit their day jobs and pursue this full-time, which is certainly fair, IMO.

this looks like it could be really good!

was kind of interested until they released info about their pvp system. it's not for me.

Link to their info so you can decide for yourself:

I'm pretty sure Lost Ark is going to be doing all of that, Also Project TL.

Ages away from those games coming out but nonetheless.

Fractured team is what used to be "The Repopulation"?
Asking cause I remember they did a "fractured" survival game and also because I supported The Repopulation early in development, so I would assume if these are the same guys I suppose I should be counted as a supporter and should have an account for future testing.

Edit: So The Repopulation is still being developed, so I got my answer. Not the same guys.

No that was Fragmented, this is a totally different team. You still should have fragmented in your steam account that you supported The Repopulation on, but I am pretty sure it is as dead in the water as TR is.

All the games I seen that try to mix PvE in an open world PvP environment have failed.
That is why most games have different servers to split them.
The ideas to mix them together in Fractured sounds promising, but I am sure players will find loopholes in the mechanics.

To echo some other posters comments, this does look interesting.
Kind of early though so I'll wait until I see more or get to try it before I get too excited.

Yeah you are right it's fragmented lol, fractured, fragmented talk about lack of ideas for names :P.

Also when I checked TR earlier there was an april update post, but didn't read it. Still from what I see they are working on it and I think they might've started from scratch, so it's going to be a while before any playable game is available.

If anything else I'll say that the video grabbed my attention. I'll definitely be paying closer attention to this as it moves forward.

Glad to see it progressing However there asking amount for Kickstarter is way too high and hope their monsters are a bit more interesting then wolves.
