Walking in the town makes you feel safe and protected by the gods, as you arrive to the Mayor and Captain which the names of them are [Mayor] Picumar and [Captain] Madarlon you explain what happened to the village and military camp near it and of course about the lizard creatures, they were shocked, never seen native creatures like humans ruling the land, after the whole explanation Captain Madarlon says that he is going back to the mainland to let the King know, the town Mayor however does not believe you, after Captain Madarlon leaves he tells you if you will tell around stories you will be arrested and executed.
You are now no one… officially a human without a profession, work and home but what is there to do? A lot… become a adventurer, join the Monastery of Vavi and become a magician and a follower of Vavi however that process is extremely hard! The followers of Vavi are great alchemists and wine makers as well!
You can as well join the Expeditionary Army in the Peachsail Valley in the biggest town called Dalemeat City or either join the Rebellion against the tirrany of the King Etburn on its people, the rebels are the people that were pushed around by the King or are orphan’s because of him and they believe he needs to pay for what he is done and this is where you as well side with the Lizard Creatures but that will not work for long as they tend to use the trust of humans and then back stab them…
Your objective in the adventure is to kill the Tribe leader of the Lizard creatures, the one that killed your father and mother and revenge them but to do so there is a lot to do, loads to be done and you wont have your revenge quickly.
Every faction has that ending, factions are there to make the game more interesting, Monastery of Vavi to become a magician and use magic like fire, ice and thunder HOWEVER that is not only magic avaliable, the lizards have their own god and magic, their magic is more into black magic, death magic.
Expeditionary Army of King Etburn is easiest route of getting into the Tribe Leader, the name of it says it all.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is all about character progression! sword, axe, lances and bows those all weapons have their own skills, to improve a skill in fighting in certain weapon you have to learn it first and learning costs but before that you have to find a teacher. After you learn how to use the weapon better the animation of you using the weapon is different, your character moves more and fights more like a professional and improving the fighting skill with the weapon gives more damage. There are more skills than just weaponry, athletics, sneaking, thief, alchemy and magic each of those skills have sub-skills and they are requirements to improve the main skills, for example Sword fighting, to improve it you need more strength and athletic skills, for distance weapons you need more dexterity and athletics if you want to get better in that skill.
Using weaponry is a not click and your character attacks, you have to control the attacks so to attack you have to lock on the target with holding right mouse click and then press either W,A,D - W means slash forward, A - means slash right and D means slash left with your weapon, bow either way is different, you simply lock on the target, get your bow on full charge holding W and then release W to fire, magic is the same as distance weaponry.
You of course have dialogues to choose what you want to tell NPC (( with voice acting and under subtitles )) what you say impacts the trust you gain from people so choose wisely what you say to certain people, learn about them, what they like and hate because if you make them hate you, you either destroy your quest, they attack you or simply do not want to trade or talk with you.
but that won’t be done as I won’t be making the game, the purpose of the topic is to get feedback if I do this correctly, is my story line good? gameplay? whats wrong with it, how can I improve it etc etc
