Wayfinder has plenty of potential, but it’s stretching the ‘early access’ label a little too far with this very, very rocky launch.
This truly seems like a cursed genre - I was really hoping to get some alternative warframe-adjacent game to play during content droughts but it seems it’s not meant to be. Looks like another mmo-lite looter shooter that seems to have missed its mark, both in terms of gameplay, grind and monetization.
It is still in early access (that you have to pay to access) but it’s supposed to be released and f2p within a year so we’ll see what happens then.
That is disappointing. I love Warframe and thought that with Digital Extremes as their publisher, the Wayfinder team would put out similar quality, monetization, and game systems. Maybe the Wayfinder team can turn it around and be a redemption story in the future.
