Wayfinder MMO Delays Early Access Launch, Embraces Cozy Stardew Valley Vibes

Action MMO Wayfinder offers players a fantasy post-apocalyptic world with fast and dynamic combat, customizable housing, and a strong social element inspired by Lord of the Rings Online. Players can claim and personalize their own apartments, store powerful artifacts for character buffs, and invite friends to visit. The developers have plans to expand housing features and add collaborative elements in the future. The smaller scale of apartments allows for a gradual introduction to the game's systems, and players can enjoy gameplay benefits without overwhelming home decor. Wayfinder's early access launch provides an opportunity for feedback and future updates.
