Hero's Journey is the new 3-D Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Game from Simutronics, the same people who brought you GemStone IV, DragonRealms, Modus Operandi, Alliance of Heroes, and CyberStrike 2.
Simutronics' design motto is "More Fun. Less Tedium." and Hero's Journey shows it. The game elements focus on fun, action-packed, adventure-style roleplay. With less waiting and more playing, Hero's Journey provides an innovative mix of familiar game play elements and some fresh new ones.
A special emphasis is placed on Character creation tools that provide an extensive amount of flexibility, both in terms of character appearance as well as character abilities. This attention to detail is also reflected in beautiful environments, and compelling, dynamic mini-quests.
A character selects two classes, a primary and a secondary. The combination of those two provides the ability lists the player will choose from.
The tentative list for the nine classes to choose from is: Warrior, Ranger, Rogue, Wizard, Necromancer, Gearknight, Healer, Cleric, and Bard.
Players will be able to customize their characters with a system that is unmatched compared to other MMOGRPGs.
Not all options will be available to the player at character creation. We still want to preserve the fun of finding cool stuff that you can add to your outfit, or maybe trade or sell to other characters. Some of these items will have special abilities as well. This keeps loot interesting while still preserving the fun of character creation.
You may be wondering how you can get involved with Hero's Journey and help support the game pre-release. Have your guild leader join Hero's Journey's Hero Council. The Hero Council invites gaming community leaders to come together and act as representatives of their player communities and express their desires, thoughts and ideas for game design. In this manner, Hero's Journey will continue to be developed with a broadened range of input and more accurately depict what the player population wants. Ideally, it is a mechanism by which ideas can flow from the community to the community leadership to the Hero's Journey developers, eventually reaching a stage where these ideas can be considered for inclusion into the game. If you do not yet have one, you can create a free play.net account and then fill out the Hero Council application form here.
