Your war is over, but their war has just begun.
You are the last of the Dana'an, a group of rangers led by Finn Dana'an all but exterminated by the Empire. The war has taken everything from you, your home, your comrades, your beloved. Now you're left to carry on, ekeing out an existence smuggling with one of the few friends you have left, Capt. Reynolds. The past, however, will not stay behind you, and soon you will find yourself facing a terror, and a hero, reborn.
No expansions are needed, but Adonnay's Elven Weapons hak and Escimator's Handaxes will need to be in your override for all weapons to display correctly.
FEATURES:
-Extensive use of terrain. Explore, fight, and sneak your way through large, lushly detail exterior areas that fit together to form a continuous landscape. Trees, buildings, and fences provide cover from arrows and bolts; grass, brush, and canebreaks provide a place to hide.
-Epic battles, with dozens of combatants on either side. Combat is fast, chaotic, and often overwhelming. NPCs fight in squads using a specially-designed tactical AI. They can ambush, hit-and-run, call for reinforcements, and will rout when seriously wounded or when they lose their leader.
-Special 'chatbot' conversations. Haggle with merchants as you barter, or use diplomacy or intimidation to gain critical information in fully interactive conversations.
-Mixture of linear and sandbox-style play. Though the main plot is fairly linear, the player is always free to wander the landscape, exploring, trading, hunting, or simply getting into trouble.
DOES NOT FEATURE:
-Multiple choice conversations.
-Text-based romances.
-Companions.
-Multi-linear plots (not yet).
