SUMMARY:

Oriana has promised to herself to live by one duty and one duty only, to protect her little brother, Orion.

In the blood of their family, runs the prophecy of the Vessels, those who are capable of channelling the powers of the Old Gods, and use them to banish evil. The prophecy skipped Oriana and landed on Orion, who is now being hunted by those who his powers menace the most.

The country is on the brink of a new war, and Oriana and her brother are caught between that and their own personal safety. Orion will have to learn from his older sister how to properly use his powers, because he knows that ultimately, he won't be able to avoid doing so.

- A semi open world experience. Explore the world with freedom.

très sympa comme jeu dommage que très peu de portes s'ouvrent dans les villes et donc peu de choses à trouver

Trying to find Gallant (I think that's his name), but I can open hardly any doors or go up where I would figure it would take me to his house. Am I missing something?

Thanks for the compliment.

The main house in the north part of town. After entering town, just keep moving up and you will find it.
I hope this helps and let me know if it doesn't.

I am at the very top and there are 2 different houses, but both are blocked by big wooden doors, and I can't pass. LoL
I am hoping I have just missed something, cause it would really suck if I can't even finish the demo. I'm really starting to like the game.

Shotz!, it is that house right there.
Were you looking for the house in New Haven or in New Haven Station? You must leave the station after the mug scene and head to New Haven.

I thought I was in New Haven because I left the station but it may be possible I was somewhere else. I decided to buy the full version, and it ended up overwriting the demo and I lost my save files. I'm having no luck. LoL

Thanks Myth for answering me. I'm gonna start over, and if I get stuck again, I'll let ya know.

How many hours (on average) of game play?

Hi jincyk, that is hard to answer. It depends on the play style of the player.
I would say around 10 to 15 hours, depending on how much of it you explore and complete, how much you level up... hard to say, really.

Just finished the game in a little over 6 hours. Loved the story line. Artwork was beautiful on the characters. I have to say
I miss hidden rooms on all of these new games. I'd pay a little more for them. Just fighting monsters and bosses just doesn't seem to cut it on all of the new games coming out. No insults intended. It just gets boring after a while. There have been very few epic games other than Aldorlea/Indy ones created. I'd like to see any of the newer game makers take up the gauntlet to challenge Indy with the creative force I know all of you people have hiding in the depths of your souls.
I grant all of you an enhancement on your creativity which starts NOW!!!

Hi Myth,

I have just finished the game in about 6.5 hours after getting interrupted a fair bit - I started in June so it's taken me about 2 months. I leveled up all the characters to 28-30. The game played very smoothly and the story-line was good because, despite being interrupted, I did remember what had gone on. For me that is sign of a good story.

As ZuluKat said, the art work is beautiful for both the scenes and characters, however similarly I found the lack of variation in play detracted from my overall interest and fun. Don't get me wrong - I think it is a good game but a bit more variation in the play from just going through dungeons and engaging in battles - e.g., side quests, secret rooms, puzzles to solve (not too hard please), or other interesting inclusions - would be wonderful.

Many thanks,

MerryX
