This game is very reminicient of the Diablo series, but with very nice 3D graphics.
It’s a classless RPG. There are four races (Man, Elf, Troll, and Goblin) and three areas of expertise (Fighting, Magic, and Other), each of which has three individual trees. Fighting has melee, ranged, and techniques; Magic has elemental, light, and dark; Other has a race-specific tree, a technique tree for those who like magic & nature, and a separate tree for those who think science & technology is the way to go. All Fighting and Magic trees are available to all races; access to the technique trees in the Other category are determined by the character’s alligience.
As a player progresses through the game, they make choices that determine whether their character is faithful to nature or if they’d rather side with science & technology in the name of progress. Goblins have a natural affinity for the latter, Elves toward magic, and Trolls toward might. Haven’t tried Men yet but with the other three taken, it seems logical they’d lean toward nature.
One’s alligience to either nature or technology also determines some of the equipment one can use. For example: Nature gets animal skins, wooden armor, some nice bows and swords while Technology gets Art Deco metal armor, firearms(!) saws, and steam-powered hammers.
Almost forgot, there are companions scattered around the map. The first you’ll probably meet is a Troll schooled in light magic but has amnesia; she’s not far from the starting point in the main game. A character can have up to two companions at any given time.
Oh, and it is multiplayer-capable, both co-op and PvP are supported.
