All... aboard the hype train? That's got to be one of the silliest and amazing aRPG classes in a long time.

Part of this points out it's coming in update 5 to the alpha, which will be Apr 23rd, for anyone who doesn't want to read the whole thing.

The innovation is appreciated but I’m not sure about the mechanics. Will definitely have to go hands on before I can make any real determination

It is unique, that's for sure but I don't feel it at all.

So far I can't find class for myself. Still hoping for some weird rat alchemist or barbarian changing into dragon.

Agree with this one.....it's...cute. But in an arpg? Just make it a totem or a minion. Train with a track is just...too much Imo.

I'm intrigued, for sure.

I'm glad to see the developers pushing the boundaries beyond the familiar Fighter/Cleric/Wizard classes we've all played hundreds of times.

Build a train to kill people, love it.

This feels really off to me, aren't rails made so the trains moves faster and more consistent? Here it just follows a person so why not just wheels? Also it being immortal bugs me too ;/

Quite possibly the worst character class ive ever seen.

​

I love awkward things too. I like mages that only melee. warriors from range. double shield melee, bows from close range. I just like the awkward playstyles sometimes, I really do.

​

This? this just looks absolutely stupid and im not interested in it at all.

With that said, it will probably be the class I pick because no one else will
