Presumably you can mix skills from different branches, but yeah that does not look good.

Watched the video. There are flirtation lines, but you get shot down. :lol:

The four companions are the aumaua guy, the oceanfolk woman, the orlan gal, and a bearded dwarf guy. Predicting the orlan's going to be popular.

There's visual feedback for whether or not you're using level-appropriate equipment.

The Delemgan Queen gets mad at you for killing her people and attacks, but if you sneak up there, she greets you warmly and gives you what you want without hassle. C&C. :cool:

The Outer Pillars is looking pretty okay to me.

? Was anybody expecting something non-popamole?

This game might tell an interesting story in the Eora setting and give you pretty environments to explore. It's not going to be good for anything else.

So many nu-dexers are so over C&C, but I'm glad you can get that quest item without a fight. If this were a Bioware game, they'd absolutely force you to fight her.

The weird thing for me here is how everything clashes. The player strikes with a sword, but the sound effects and enemy feedback make it seem they're bludgeoning with a mace, or at least punching with the sword's guard. The mushrooms and protrusions give me the impression the game takes place underwater, but that's clearly not the case. The colors fail to complement each other in every instance. It's as if two very different people designed the game completely oblivious from one another and then a third one mashed everything together. It's disconcerting.
