Gamespot comes up with a preview of Figthing Legends. It also contains some screenshots as well. This is a part of the preview:
You start out by choosing your race and your class, as you do with any other RPG. But these aren't your usual fantasy stereotypes, nor are they a sci-fi reworking, nor even an Arcanum-like steampunk. No, to get close to the idea of the world in which Fighting Legends is set you have to imagine a world in which kung fu meets Pokemon with robots. No, really, take a look at the screenshots if you don't believe me. The background story -- which, in a fit of traditionalism, is completely redundant -- concerns a giant robot that collided with the mystical world of Exisle. No doubt this all happened many moons ago and there have been great wars between the newly-formed races ever since, but at any rate you pays yer money and yer takes yer choice.
Each and every race has its own strengths and weaknesses, not only in what it's good at (melee combat, magic, healing etc.) but also how effective it is against other races. Each race has one it's very effective against (doing double damage in combat) and another it isn't (only doing half damage). Once you've made a character, you're ready to jump into the real world, which, it turns out, is just as weird as the character set. Enemies don't consist of zombies and orcs so much as flowers armed with rocket launchers and tiny blue swordsmen. Still, the goal is the same: you hack them to pieces and then gain experience so you can hack more enemies to pieces. | Source: Bluesnews |
