@kralith If I go to any website for any game, I can pretty much navigate and figure out what this game is about. This website does not provide that. Finding information about the game should be in the 'about' not 'news' the 'about' portion of this website tells me absolutely nothing about the game. There are no worth-while videos to watch about this game. I can't be expected to listen to 12 hours of a guy(the dev) talking into a camera without a script diddling about like he doesn't know what the fuck he is going to say next.

The wiki is non-existent for mechanics
The About -> Company is barebones with no reputable sources or projects ever made
The FAQ is completely demoralizing by 'promising' things that it isn't going to be(P2W)
Both of the Gameplay videos look like ass and show off nothing unique and lack any creativity
The screenshots showcase very rustic graphics, like really rustic, like 2006 games graphics. And- I don't usually care for graphics, I'll play 07Scape because it's a good game and the graphics match what I'm doing. But it's a big yikes from me when the game is looking to be a competitor with another game when it's 10 years in the past.

It looks like the ONLY thing that has any attention to it is the Leaderboards aka who spent the most money on a product that isn't even in Alpha yet. 5 Sections for something irrelevant. Got time to make leaderboards for donators but not successfully showcase the game. If you're actually serious as a company or dev, you can't be lazy. I have given so many games a try just because of 1 thing only: It looked like the devs were dedicated. 7 Days to Die? Atleast they're trying. Terraria? Dedicated devs producing content atleast 4 times a year. Battlerite? Dedicated devs. I spent the last 2 days determining whether or not I want to even join the alpha at all after finally finding the information I need to form an opinion- which granted, I shouldn't even of done, complete waste of time on my part- I shouldn't have to do massive research for what looks to be a $20 game. And just by doing so I've learned how this game is going to completely flop- because there are people out there with less time than me to go through the bullshit hoops to find out any mechanics of this game. Deleting this account/pw from my chrome history and moving on. Last post. Maybe I'll try the game when it's out and the devs start taking shit seriously.

This post is going to seem mostly negative because I want to address specific negatives I have looking at this game. I don't have anything positive to say about the game because I literally have no information about the game.

My qualm about backing this game is how the kickstarter is specifically setup.

In the Kickstarter itself there are 'goals' that have been reached which have absolutely NO reason to be a goal. They're adding in 'content' based on how much we pay? Is this a poor translation or am I really seeing that our next goal is going to add content in. What is the passion here? Are the devs looking for a cashgrab or am I completely misunderstanding updates on this game?

" 110k Euros - Labyrinth "
" 130k Euros - Labyrinth 2 "

Was there no intention of putting Labyrinth 2 in the game without an additional 20k? Are we customizing the game rather than having dedicated devs that just want to make a good game? (Obviously the devs are going to short answer this and just say " no no no we would never do that, blah blah blah blah we spent 20k on 240p textures")

1. WHAT BUSINESS MODEL DOES FRACTURED FOLLOW?
   Fractured follows a “buy to play” business model. This means that a single initial purchase gives you permanent access to the game, without any content restriction!

On top of that, the game features an Item Store selling cosmetic perks and an optional VIP membership.

I have been tricked many many many times with 'pledge' games. Why is this game better than Albion? A game I do not play anymore for various reasons. I'm seeing a bunch of things about funding the game, but I have little-to-no information about anything about the game that would even prompt me to care about the 'progress'.

How is this game different from Albion
Is there a 'skill tree' or is it a 'mastery tree' like Albion
Is the game going to get fucked by the devs 'balancing' the mastery tree people spend months on to get a specialization in a specific thing and all of a sudden a character is worthless? Or is there going to be Skill Tree like ArcheAge where you could switch between skill sets and become a hybrid of something and players determining the meta builds instead?
