Whether players will actually mail their copies of Everquest or Ultima Online remains to be seen. We have some initial impressions for you with a more in-depth preview coming soon, in case you want to know what's going on, but aren't feeling daring enough to part with software from your games collection. Fallen Age attempts to blend both the Science Fiction and Fantasy elements to create a world vaguely familiar to anyone who has played Final Fantasy games before. The game is presented in 3D isometric view, very similar to the Baldur's Gate series. In the game, you can play one of three different character classes.
Fighters are best at combat, but have no real spell casting capability.
Magicians and Clerics are magic users, but have very weak combat skills. You can also choose between male and female characters, although there are reportedly no functional differences between the two. Instead they level by applying the exp points to one of six statistics that make up your character. We'll have more on how these all work together, and which ones are important to which classes in the coming preview. Players can buy additional items, and certain items wear out and break with repeated use.
