comment |
Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues is Richard "Lord British" Garriott's Spiritual Successor both to his own cult RPG series Ultima and to its MMORPG offshoot, Ultima Online, created by his new studio Portalarium.The game is set in a Wide-Open Sandbox of the Constructed World of New Britannia, which is still recovering from the massive Cataclysm that destroyed the old civilization several generations ago. Furthermore, the population of the world is under constant threat from the monsters spawned by the Cataclysm, and the prophecies tell about the impending End of an Age, which many fear will be much like the Cataclysm itself. You, as the Avatar, return to New Britannia and are tasked with following the eponymous Virtues (Truth, Courage, and Love), facing the Hidden Villain, and ultimately restoring peace and harmony to the world. While the game is playable offline, the devs actively promoted its "Selective Multi-Player" mode, which aims to be the middle-ground between small-scale Co-Op Multiplayer and a full-blown MMORPG. In short, it works by allowing you to select which other players (if any) you want to play with, so that no others can join your game. Offline characters are not playable online and vice versa.Originally envisioned as the first installment of the Shroud of the Avatar pentalogy, Forsaken Virtues was funded on Kickstarter, collecting over $1.9 million in pledges. It entered early access in November 2014 and was finally released in March 2018, but following a lukewarm-to-negative reception, went Free-to-Play in October of the same year. In October 2019, Portalarium sold off all of the game's assets to Catnip Games and presumably shut down. While Catnip Games has maintained Forsaken Virtues ever since, SotA as a brand appears to be a Stillborn Franchise at this point. |

Skill Scores and Perks |
| | Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues (Video Game) / int_3b6a5d9b |
comment |
Skill Scores and Perks: Skill points were originally gained with character levels (Adventure and Crafting levels give points for respective skills) and could be spend on Active and Innate (passive) perks. With Release 21, however, the game switched to Stat Grinding instead. Perks form a skill tree and new ones have to be unlocked by visiting a trainer after clearing all the prerequisites. Multiple points can be invested into said perks, increasing the passives' effect and giving the Avatar more "copies" of actives, so they can be used more often. |

Allegedly Free Game: During the open beta phase of development, one of the main sources of revenue for the company was selling real estate in their game for real money (and pretty steep sums, too). While it was possible to just grind enough gold in-game, it would take years to purchase even a simple homestead, to say nothing about more fancy structures. |

Character Class System |

comment |
Character Class System: Averted. The closest it comes to a class is the "Avatar archetypes" (warrior-melee, warrior-ranged, wizard-offensive, wizard-defensive), which seem to be just appearance templates rather than traditional classes. |

Expy: Conrad Dupre, Knight of Norgard, is a pretty transparent one of Dupre The Paladin from the old Ultima series, while Fiona Fitzowen is essentially a gender-flipped Iolo FitzOwen, down to wielding a crossbow as her signature weapon. Ariel Rosehaven may be an incarnation of Mariah the Mage, another of the Avatar's old companions. |

Elemental Crafting: Light Armor is made from cloth or leather; Medium Armor, of chain or scales; and Heavy Armor is steel plate. There are also shields, which are considered armor. |

Overworld Not to Scale: This has caused a lot of contention among the backers, but the devs have defended their vision, as it allows them to create fewer but more detailed locations (that can be accessed from every tile of the world map) than in a completely continuous world. |

All Your Base Are Belong to Us: Downplayed. If your hometown falls under siege, you will not be able to access any facilities in it (including your own house) until you lift the siege. |

Item Crafting: Just as in the Ultima series, crafting is an essential part of the gameplay. An early demo showcased an Avatar chopping down a tree, sawing the logs into planks, making a chair, putting it on the roof of his house, and sitting on it. Crafting is divided into three stages, and each has five skills that form a chain from raw resource to final product: Gathering: Mining, Forestry, Agriculture, Field Dressing, and Foraging Refining: Smelting, Milling, Textiles, Tanning, and Butchery Production: Blacksmithing, Carpentry, Tailoring, Cooking, and Alchemy |
