The Roots Interview, Part 2 is now up at RPG Vault offering another insight into this new game under development at Tannhauser Gate. Here's part of the conversation:Jonric: How important will weapons, armor, clothing and other items be in The Roots? What types can players expect, how will they be obtained, and will there be any usage restrictions?
Artur Jaskolski: There's going to be a lot of items that players will be able to find and take during their journey through Lorath. The list includes items of 'daily use' (food, weapons and armors and such) as well as magic, quest-related and unique items. Every defeated enemy will leave some items for players to pick up. Sometimes, it will be ordinary loot, but other times, it can be an item that cannot be acquired in other way, from a shop for example. All together, there are about 1,000 items of all kinds to be found in the game. Among them, there are some that will cause 'party' effects, meaning that their influence (e.g. boosts) will affect the entire party. |
