"Introducing ShadowFlare" ist the title of the first interview about this upcoming game. GameSpy grilled Emurasoft for the details. Here's an interesting bit about companions:
GameSpy: Tell us about the Buddy system. What kinds of companions can you have and what are they capable of doing?
Emurasoft: There are many different companions to choose from, with each having their own set of attributes and strengths. Player's companions will strictly be dogs through chapter 2, but after chapter 3, hawks will become selectable companions. Besides guarding and protecting you, companions can attack, collect items, and push switches to open doors, or be used as decoys while you attack the enemy. The abilities and skills of your companion are essential for completing the game. |
