Much like the game's whole vibe, Fellowship's pitch is pleasingly simple. The co-op RPG offers all the dungeon-clearing action you know and love from Final Fantasy 14 and World of Warcraft without the barriers to entry.
After loading up Fellowship's Steam Next Fest demo, I'm invited to a tutorial that offers the familiar. You play as one of the demo's two tank characters as you learn to juggle ability cooldowns, draw aggro, and interrupt nastier foes from unleashing nastier abilities.
The joy of Fellowship, though, is that there's little to do before you can tackle more dungeons. There are no subscription fees on the horizon, additional character leveling, or unlocking jobs.
Anyone who has done any dungeon content in an MMO will likely feel right at home – you've got a party set up of one tank, two healers, and two damage dealers.
The current heroes also fall into classic fantasy archetypes, from frosty mages to stoic paladins. Comparisons to World of Warcraft's Mythic+ dungeons are tempting, too.
