The TL:DR from Brian Fargo says Deep RPG But the actual quote from the blog says, "Today we announced Clockwork Revolution at the Xbox Games Showcase, a fantastical, first-person action RPG, with dynamic time-bending combat, deep interconnected roleplaying systems, and the ability to create your own unique character from the ground up. Clockwork Revolution takes place in the vibrant Victorian-era metropolis of Avalon, where steam trains fly overhead, wealthy industrialists replace their limbs with ornate clockwork prosthetics, and mechanical servants fulfill their masters’ every whim. But this new age of wonders holds a dark secret—it’s been carefully constructed by the ruthless Lady Ironwood. Through use of a time travel device, she’s changed key moments in Avalon’s history, keeping the working class struggling in the slums and factories, while bringing herself immense wealth and power. That’s where you come in… Discovering Ironwood’s scheme, you’ll use a wondrous device known as the Chronometer to travel back in time, choose how to influence the past, and then return to the present to experience the effects of your decisions. Through unprecedented and complex visual and narrative depth, the choices you make on your trips into the past will change the people, the stories, and the city of Avalon itself in extraordinary and (very often) unexpected ways. In Clockwork Revolution we’re pushing roleplaying reactivity to new heights, infused with the unique texture and personality that you’ve come to expect from our games." So not only do you have the choice and consequences you would expect from an RPG, but being able to go to the past, make the choices you want to make, then travel back to the present and see on a grand scale just what consequences you have from the choices you made. I seriously can't wait for this game! |
I was happy to see inXile have something announced, dampened my hype though with the explicit avoidance of a release window. This is probably announced very early and might have been better kept under wraps for now. As they didn't even commit to 2024, I expect 2025 at earliest. Too far away to get hyped. Sadly, as I would love to see the next project of inXile and Brian Fargo.
