White Gold: War in Paradise Interview

FiringSquad had the opportunity to fire over several questions about White Gold: War in Paradise to some unspecified Deep Shadows developers.
Q: How does the game's RPG elements work and how do they influence gameplay?

A: The main elements of RPG in the game are perks which help the player to do the quests and progress through the plot. The system for developing the character is based on them. When you get to another level, you'll have an opportunity to receive a new one, or you can upgrade the ones that you've taken already. In White Gold, you will see various perks that touch almost all aspects of in-game activity. Focusing on a set of them, different players will improve their characters in a certain direction much more than in other ones. They will be able to create a hero that is a master of weaponry and nothing else, or they will have one that is good in running, jumping, diving and so on, but won't be able to do anything against a machine gun nest. The main part of the character stats is quite typical for any RPG - life points, armor, weapon damage, encumbrance, etc.

Accomplishment of quests and communication with NPCs are two other RPG elements that have a lot of influence on the gameplay.
