"Want to try playing a character who is really, really outside the box? We got you," say the developers. Customizable potions, spells, and enchantments similiar to those in Daggerfall will be another core gameplay mechanic. The way it's described is that the player is given a character that has a fully customizable skill tree. Players will have open options to mold their character to their liking. "A virtual Game Master keeps things interesting for you, making other characters and their factions react and plot their next move based on your actions, resulting in no two players having the exact same game experience."Ĭharacter and classes are also not pre-designed. "Constantly Evolving Experience and Story," reads the game's Steam page. We have heard these claims before, but few studios have succeeded in delivering anything close to a genuinely dynamic narrative, so don't hold your breath just yet. The most intriguing thing that OneLost has to say about the gameplay is that it is ever-changing, and every decision affects the story. Betraying your faction is also an option leading to potential underhanded scenarios where the player works both sides as a double agent. Several factions consisting of multiple races, including "humans, elves, dwarves, and other races of a more unusual nature" vie for power over the realm." It sounds like most of the gameplay will consist of allying to one or more factions and fighting to gain control over the land. From that alone, one can assume The Wayward Realms will dwarf Skyrim in landmass by a longshot. The developers claim that each island is "realistically scaled" from small to massive. The game takes place in a realm called "The Archipelago." It is a series of 100 islands. The video does not reveal much else, but the game's official website does provide a small glimpse of what to expect. The hero emerges from the forest, greeted by an expansive world with three moons. He presumably has some magic abilities as he lights his way with a magical orb of light that behaves like the Candlelight spell in TES. It just shows an armored warrior riding a horse through a foggy forest. It's a fully CG production that is not indicative of in-game footage, but it is a pretty cool introduction to what we can expect without giving much away. On Sunday, the studio dropped a teaser for The Wayward Realms (above).
