A preview of Mistmare has been posted at Eurogamer. Here's a bit:
Your six basic stats represent the two aspects of each of the three spheres - willpower and strength are (respectively) the Spiritual and Corporeal aspects of the Terran sphere, intelligence and agility belong to the Lunar sphere, and concentration and health are Solar attributes. One or more of these basic stats then controls each skill; so, for example, acrobatics is a Corporeal skill governed by your agility and strength.
It's all very complicated, but luckily most of this intricacy is hidden away behind a very simple interface and character sheet. Each item and skill has a balance of the three spheres, displayed as a triangle with a circle at each corner, with the size of a sphere's icon showing the strength of its influence. This pictorial approach is extended to the stats themselves; instead of giving the player a sheet full of numbers, you are simply shown bars that extend as you gain experience in that particular attribute or skill, until eventually you "level" it and another star lights up above the bar. |
