Lionheart: LotC Question...

[6 Foot Invisible Rabbit]

It seems to have the post apocalyptic themes down but what are the game mechanic aspects, the rules system used? Is it governed more of the FPS style of Half Life 2 and Doom 3 or does it have a more CRPG feel, and if so is it action oriented (like Deus or JE) or traditional in its design (like Fallout or Silent Storm)?

Hmm, Bioshock should be very nice in that aspect. It may not have SPECIAL, but the system should be similar enough in its implementation.

No kidding! Thinking about it a bit, doesn't the Biosphere gone awry setting kind of mimic a post-apocolyptic setting? Things have gone very bad, there's mutations going around, and people are scavenging to survive!.

Man, that has gotten me exited in Bioshock in totally new kind of way!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yeah. I'm quite anticipating this game. The artstyle is very nice. The setting sounds neat.

I'm not big on the art from the screenies I've seen. I'd prefer something more realistic looking as far as the weapons and enemys go. However, that's not about to stop me from getting the game. ANd of course, once I am actually playing the game, the art may turn out to fight quote well in the atmosphere of the gameworld. And of course the screenies may not really be representative of the games actual content. (although if they are approved for release by the devs and publisher, one would think they would be).

 

Still, just taking the screenies entirely without context, I don't like art look.

Game world seems very much like Deus Ex in implementation too.

I don't think the rules system has owt to do with it. We've played cyberpunk pnp with Vampire rules, and vice versa. No bother.

[6 Foot Invisible Rabbit]

I just find rules systems fascinating.
