Stratics has kicked up a preview of Mythic's 'Imperator':Imperator is beautiful. The world that I jumped into, Terra Nova (Not to be confused with Terra/Earth), is lush with people, vegetation, weapon effects, solid ambient noise, and enemies. Combat was an interesting combination of FPS and RPG, with simple targeting and skill based moves that recharged after use. One of the first things I noticed was that the longer you’re in a combat situation, the easier it becomes to fight. It’s like an adrenaline rush that just keeps pushing you harder and harder and making you deadlier as time passes. Sit behind a crate though to rest for a while, and you’ll find yourself slipping back to where you were when you started. |
