The Armchair Empire has posted a short preview of Summoner 2 for the PS2. A lot of screenshots to look at, too :-). As usual, we serve you a tasty snippet from the article:
Once again the main character’s ultimate goal is to eventually ascend to godhood, but this time out the heroine, Pava, knows full well it’s her destiny straight from the onset of the game. She’s the Queen of Halassar, a land on the complete opposite side of the world where the original game took place. They worshipped the goddess Laharah, who they believed brought good to the world, though over time their religion was perverted into a far darker form and the world’s original necromancers, the Nhuvasarim, came to be, eventually becoming part of the evil of the original Summoner. Eventually a king came along and banished the Nhuvasarim, restoring the land and its religion to its formerly pure form. In their mythology it was said that one day Laharah would return to the world, and as it turns out she will return in the form of Pava, so now players must lead her and her party through the Kingdom of Halassar so that she can fulfill her destiny. |
