Arena of Kings [PC - MOBA] - Corenat Rovarnus - 12-23-2021
https://arenaofkings.com/
A fast paced MOBA taking heavy inspiration from the endgame PvP modes of WoW and other MMOs. The gameplay consists entirely of 3v3 team deathmatches lasting a mere 2 minutes per match.
There are a couple maps, but they are all featureless flat plains with a couple of pillar thingies to block line of sight. Most of the nuance is in the character abilities. You can have up to 8 at once out of like 20 some per class. The learning curve is pretty steep though unless you are already a veteran MMO PvPer or MOBA player.
There is no sugarcoating the fact that the graphical appearance is extremely ghetto, the kind of aesthetic one would expect from a game released in the early 2000s(so like 2003. god I feel old
). Everything looks flat, the characters are 2D sprites made from prerendered 3D models a la Diablo 2, and some of the fonts just give me a really unpolished vibe. On the plus side this means it doesn't take much processing power to run and you can probably get a 60fps lock even on your ancient craptop from 10 years ago.Matchmaking goes by pretty fast, you hit ready, it gives you two teammates, you hit ready again, and you're in a match.
Currently we've got me, @Interovegas and @Xenoe on the train. We'll see how long this lasts.
