Fateless Podcast Recap: Alpha EXPLAINED: Big Reveals, Goals and MORE!
This past Fateless podcast was recorded just before Alpha Wave 1 began, giving us a fun look back at the conversations, questions, and speculation that came before players ever set foot in the Caverns. Now, as we roll into Wave 2, it’s the perfect time to revisit those early discussions. Brad and Sham were joined by guests Nicholas (Scrolls of Anubis) and Mighty Zoo, the Fateless team dove into gaming backgrounds, content creation journeys, and most importantly — expectations for Alpha. The group discussed what developers hoped to gain from the early tests: not just bug reports, but honest feedback on game feel, camera work, and the core loop.
Podcast Summary
They broke down how the Alpha is structured: three waves, culminating in a final stage competition. Early stages focus on measured progression, with later tiers opening up for wild team-building and experimentation. 67 heroes will be available, with starter choices and guaranteed early drops to help teams take shape — but no traditional summoning yet, to preserve the launch experience.
Viewers also got a peek at planned features beyond Alpha, including a robust clan system, better tools for community-run events, and the ability to challenge friends directly. The team emphasized their commitment to transparency, open feedback, and building systems that foster long-term goals rather than short-lived progression.
There was even time for some wishlist fun — from cursed legendary weapons to mythological demon factions — showing the passion both creators and community have for the game’s future. Listening back now, it’s clear that excitement was high before Alpha even began… and with Wave 2 on the horizon, the conversation feels more relevant than ever.
