It all rests upon . . . the story (#NewLore) Technically, I've completely abolished my initial story concept for EOTH. Which ended up being a pressure release, in some regards. [Although, there was a conscious decision behind the way it was laid out: simply, had no time to think about it.] Was not a fan of how flat and similar it was to D2, and how it lacked a unique soul. Plus, all those concepts I've come up with [as of late] pushed me to rethink the situation . . . Overall I'm happy how it turned out, especially that now we have a fairly good reason to chop down all those foul beasts [in our path]. It has a solid base: a motivation [from the character] and a sense of journey/goal that the story revolves around. Mind you, arguably the transformation made the story a bit more sinister! [Which again IMHO reinforces the dark, hack&slash aspect of the game.] Furthermore, I have written a concept script for a possible intro, which you can read here: [It's just a few pages long.] EOTH INTRO CONCEPT And the TL;DR version ***SPOILERS AHEAD*** https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
