Obsidian Entertainment unleashed its follow-up to Pillars of Eternity today, and it’s Tyranny, another Infinity Engine-inspired role-playing game that focuses on story choice, and what happens when a player serves an evil empire instead of trying to save the world.

Tyranny is making its debut at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, publisher Paradox Interactive revealed during its press briefing this evening. While the studio plans to share more details later this month about this PC RPG, what we know now is that the player’s character must navigate a world where an evil overlord has conquered all, serving this Kryos while also carving out his own destiny.

Damn, this looks beautiful!

Hopefully the gameplay and story will be on par with those graphics!

Hard to tell from the small screens but the character aesthetics kind of remind me of Dark Sun.

It's the same as Pillars of Eternity, prerendered 2D backgrounds with some VFX and 3D character models over the top, running on Unity.

Nice! Bring it on!


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Features:
  • A branching narrative with a unique story in an original setting: The Battle between good and evil has already taken place, and evil stands victorious.
  • Choices matter - a different player experience every time you play it - As an Officer in the Overlord’s army you wield a vast amount of power in the occupied lands of the Tiers. Will you use that power to inspire stability and loyalty, or will you be a feared oppressor?
  • Challenging, classic RPG combat with modern mechanics and presentation
  • A rich original setting - a completely new and original fantasy world with rich lore and many paths to follow

I hope it won't... but I doubt it Laughing

Will the guy who is obsessed with combat balancing be a project leader? I forgot his name..

Sawyer. No, he isn't lead. This is Project Vermont, a rehash of the cancelled Stormlands project. The lead is Brian Heins. They've been working on this since 2014, in parallel with PoE. Most of the team probably came straight off South Park onto this.

Because it's brown? That's all I can really tell from the trailer.

Tim Cain has been working on this for the past year, not the lead but still. The best thing of all, no Josh Sawyer.

Cautiously optimistic about this one.

Aww Yeah
Yes.


Though after PoE i don't expect that much of this. Graphics and combat probably will be good too. But i don't know if this time they will be able to make a interesting story.

The premise of the story sounds way more interesting than Pillars and those screens are sexy so I'm optimistic.

The setting doesn't appeal to me.

If they go with the same terrible RTwP combat system as PoE, then I'll have to take a pass.

If there was one game I'd be excited by from Obsidian, it would be that Aliens RPG they cancelled.

Considering Tim Cain's involvement with this one I'm surprised they didn't go turn based. I'm guessing they didn't have time to implement a TB system.

I guess the success of PoE means they don't have to change much.

If we're lucky, then maybe we'll get functional AI scripts and less obtuse combat pathfinding this time.

They need to fix that engagement system as well, that or just remove it.

In an age where they censor their game at the request of some random Twitter tranny, I'm a bit skeptical about how they will do the "evil" part.

Maybe you can oppress the LGBTBBQ populace for evil meter points.

Based on real events, the patriarchy won and now your party of genderfluids must fight evil with evil!

Seriously though, if it doesn't have rape, racism and other evil shit, I'll be very disappointed. I'd have faith in them making an "evil world" if MotB was released yesterday. Not so much now.

I mean, we just had a Fallout(in name only, but still) game without even prostitution.. These are very dumb times we live in.
