If you’re anything like me then you’ll know all about the excitement that arrives when a new MMO is confirmed for console. For years us console owners have had to live life as the poor relative in the corner, hearing whispers from the main table of epic PC experiences; games like World of Warcraft or Guild Wars. But with this latest generation things have changed slightly, as the once PC-limited titles have started to come to console, finally letting us experience games from the genre. Since that time we have joined guilds, ground out level caps and traded potions. With Bless Unleashed and the power of Xbox One exclusivity there is the chance to entice in yet another new audience. But does Bless Unleashed manage to deliver a glimmer of excitement or will it have us all feeling like a level one mage?
Bless Unleashed has hit PC and the developers, Round8 Studios have announced the MMORPG has been downloaded over a million times since its launch. Additionally, there are quite a few people playing, with the MMORPG hit an all-time concurrent player peak of over 76K.
In the release signed by the Round8 team, the milestone of one million downloads was celebrated with enthusiasm. Also, the devs mentioned that the game remains one of the most popular on Steam and is now reaching an average of 75,000 simultaneous players. Obviously, these brands are related to the so-called “post-release excitement”, but we can't deny that the game is surprising. Interestingly, reviews on Valve's platform continue to reveal a division of opinions about the title, with around 53% of reviews evaluating everything positively. Even so, the fact is that the numbers achieved by the game ended up motivating some promises.
In this game, we play the role of a member of a small community living on an island. The island, of course, is attacked by mysterious invaders and their monstrous creatures, most of the inhabitants are murdered, and of course we miraculously survive and it turns out that we are some chosen gods or something. How clichéd the plot is in the game is one thing, we are used to repetitive patterns.
If you haven’t played an MMO before then Bless Unleashed isn’t that far away from a normal RPG in terms of its key gameplay mechanics. You get several quests that you are requested to action, with these normally consisting of heading off to a specific place, killing whatever is there, grabbing an item and dropping it back at the quest giver. But alongside that there are smaller side missions: weird little fun things like picking up a number of pieces of hay for the horses, or taking down a bunch of pumas that are bothering some cattle. Whatever quest it is though, your hard work results in the receiving of gold coins and experience points, allowing you to level up your character. This is utterly vital too as the more you level up the better equipped you are to tackle higher level quests, bosses and dungeons.
Of course, Bless Unleashed, in addition to a non-engaging story, has non-engaging main and side quests. Nobody will be surprised when I say that most of them are killing creatures and collecting flowers and other garbage. There are also world bosses that can be defeated by the players around the game world. There are also tasks that we get just by traveling and hitting a zone on the map - but these also involve defeating 12 creatures or collecting resources. Daily faction quests are my hit - apart from needing to get some weird monster items, you can repeat them three times a day. Sometimes there is something original, but it is a drop in the sea of despair and boredom.
Personally, I’ve enjoyed going back to an MMO and especially when I’ve seen the benefits of having a whole team of people around, but it must be said that the constant respawning of foes is a pain, as is the need to grind. Get past that though and the sense of being in a big adventure with hundreds of people all sharing the same world is hugely exciting; it is here where it provides unique narratives and stories. It is the sense of wonder where Bless Unleashed excels, and it is with that where it will continue to thrive successfully in the future.
