Bock on dungeons – but don’t feel like mmorpgs? A game wants to make this possible and aims at World of Warcraft players.
Dungeons in MMORPGs are such a thing in itself. Some do not like the difficulty and social interactions of these challenges, others would like to only play dungeons and cannot do anything with all the “around”. Leveling up, completing quests, farms of resources – that can be annoying.
If you just like the pure dungeon experience, you should look at Fellowship. Because Fellowship brings MMORPG dungeons-just without the whole, annoying MMORPG stuff.

What is Fellowship for a game? Fellowship is basically a pure dungeon game. There is a social hub where you are looking for group members or can try out your rotation on exercise dolls, but there is no really large game world like in MMORPGs – instead there are dungeons and everything turns around.
A group in Fellowship currently consists of a tank, a healer and 2 DPS characters.
However, you do not build your own characters, but have solid heroes to choose from, in whose role you then slip.
Wow dungeons, only without wow around it
The parallels to World of Warcraft are obvious in many cases. Because you can increase dungeons in their difficulty. Then you get a timer, but later additional modifiers (“curses”) that add further problems. That sounds strongly based on the Affix system WoW and basically plays like this.
At the same time, the complexity of your characters increases with the difficulty. Because while the magician character basically only has damage skills at the beginning, it later also receives defensive skills, interruptions of enemies or buffs for the whole group. The complexity and possibilities of one’s own character also increase with the difficulty.
If you like crispy dungeons with a bigger challenge, Fellowship will probably be happy.
What will fellowship cost? You can currently play the free demo on Steam, but later Fellowship will have a fixed price. However, this is a one -time purchase price – additional costs, such as a subscription, will not exist. New game content such as dungeons and characters should be accessible to everyone. Only cosmetic adjustments could come as paid shop items to continue to ensure the development of the game (via pcgamer.com).
Who is Fellowship for? This is a good question that is not so easy to answer. Fellowship is most likely suitable for everyone who likes to play dungeon content, but find the rest of an MMORPG rather tedious and annoying. If you don’t want to spend time with levels, grinds, farms of resources and the activation of content, you will get exactly what he or she wants in Fellowship.
However, if you play current MMORPGs like World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy, you will probably ask the question: Why should I leave my character that has been developed over the years and want to play a “no name” hero?
This is a question that the developers still have to answer. Because even if Fellowship offers really good dungeon content and this player niche will be perfectly achieved, it should be difficult to solve fans from their games who don’t just want to play dungeons.
At least at the “Steam Next Fest”, everyone can currently get an impression of Fellowship. And who knows: If you have never participated in “Endgame dungeons” in your MMORPGS, then Fellowship is the simplest start that you will ever get into this type of gameplay. For this reason alone, a look is worth it.
