Q: What kind of gameworld can we expect? To what extent will it have locations and other elements that are familiar to players of the previous games?
A: The world of Avernum 5 is enormous. It will take a truly determined player to find and explore all of the dungeons, special encounters and hidden stuff. There are many locations and characters that will be very familiar to players of the previous games. However, at the same time, I have made sure that a new player will be able to have a lot of fun without any experience in the world. Playing as a band of outsider soldiers who are new to this strange realm helps a lot with this.
The gameworld has a lot of different sections, each with its own distinct environment, characters and situations. For example, one region is controlled by the Anama, a strange faith that has decided magic is evil and dangerous, and must be resisted. They will attempt to get you to join. Of course, you can, thus giving you a different, interesting and very optional route through the game.
Anyone try this on a Mac yet?
