What is the purpose of fellowships?

Besides taking rings to Mordor.

Pretty much this, though it begs the question what use Linkshells will be after they're implemented. Frankly they seem designed to act as an in game way for things like discord communities to coordinate. While the max member amount is still too small for something like, say, the Balance Discord to have everyone on it, it's stilll a huge step up in terms of keeping everyone in one centralized in game chat while they play.

You aren't able to chat in Fellowships. This is strictly an organizational thing that I suspect will receive much more use and praise in Japan than anywhere else. They seem to like this sort of stuff, which is why the Companion app was more warmly received. In NA/EU, we have discord. So these types of additions are largely pointless. Personally... I think it's a big waste of resources but I'll reserve judgment for when I actually see it.

They are worse linkshells because there is no chat, just message board.

they should probably still work just fine to organize stuff like crossworld hunt trains, weekly rival-wings runs ect

Or finding a static members!

If there was a chat with up to 1000 people in it, it'd be a mess.

What we wanted was a FC alliance system, what we got well of course something entirely different than what we have been asking for......
