One of the game’s highly touted features is the Cinematic Combat System. You can´t kill her, but you have the option to help her – with or without a reward – or not to help her at all. For example, a woman seeks your help because she lost her son. But in most dialogues you can chose between being – what we call – “nice” or “tough”. And you can´t be plain evil because of your, well, role. You can wield flaming swords if you combine fire magic and swordsmanship for example, or shoot frozen arrows by combining long-range weapons and ice magic.Īs for morality: there is no “system” for being good or bad. Combined with the different magical disciplines and weapon specializations, this provides for a large amount of interesting combinations.

You can develop the hero in a multitude of directions: skill trees offer you the opportunity to develop a straight-up warrior or a powerful wizard, as well as any number of hybrid characters in-between. How customizable will the main character be? Is his development based on class levels or a skill point system? Is there any sort of morality system or is the main character, who was about to be ordained a paladin at the game’s outset, stuck following the path of a “goody-goody”? Not only does it constitute a sort of sidekick to our hero, but it’s also the player’s light source, illuminating the dungeons and casting dynamic light and shadows.

Additionally, we implemented many innovative features for example our unique mouse cursor which takes the form of a small light elf – a character in the game world. For example, you can travel through the entire world without level breaks there are multiple-choice dialogues, lots of sub-quests and so on. While you will spend most of your time fighting monsters, the world, the story, and the character development play a bigger role than in typical action-RPGs. Legend has a stronger RPG bent than comparable titles. Legend: Hand of God is an action role-playing game, but does the focus tend to be more on the action (slicing through hordes of ferocious monsters) or the role-playing (story, character development, NPC relationships) aspect?

The full interview can be found, as always, after the jump. I had the chance to talk with Master Creating’s co-founder and creative director Jan Beuck about Legend’s cinematic combat system, extensive character development, and why, exactly, the mouse cursor transforms into a light-emitting fairy.
