Unfortunately local split-screen is not supported. Matchmaking online is based on player ability as well as a number of parameters you can set, such as what characters your partner plays. Support spells can be cast from large distances as well. If a party member falls, they can be revived with a potion from anywhere in the dungeon as long as you have line of sight, allowing players to battle at great distance from each other while still able to support. The rooms were large, allowing players to separate while E’lara sought high ground to shoot from and Caddoc took the brunt of the enemy’s force. Every room in the dungeon we saw in the demo was built to encourage cooperation and support. It’s more that the game is completely designed around co-op. To say this is a co-op game would be an understatement. She utilizes third person shooter gameplay and must make effective use of the cover system. She also will struggle to damage enemies with thick armor unless Caddoc has already smashed it up. She has very weak armor, and if melee enemies start wailing on her, she’ll need Caddoc’s help quickly to get them off. E’lara is a powerful archer, and can shred enemies extremely effectively from a distance. Caddoc’s gameplay will be familiar to action gamers. His ranged crossbow is fairly weak, and offers minimal ranged support at best. He’s the tank, and can take plenty of damage as well as dish it out at close range. This goes both ways when someone else is playing online with you, their version of whatever character they are playing will be present.Ĭaddoc is a burly brawler and melee fighter. Your version of Caddoc and E’lara are unique to your account, and whatever gear/abilities you have will be equipped when you play online.

At any checkpoint you can switch which character you’re playing, as well as learn new abilities and upgrade your current abilities by turning in crystals. The two characters have equal, but unique, abilities in magic, and each has magic spells capable of buffing the other. Caddoc and E’lara both have ranged, magic, and melee attacks, but each character has a specialty. In combat you will pick one of the two characters to control. Hunted uses a 3rd person action combat system. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as they are actually pretty entertaining, but it does detract a bit from the very serious and dark environments and enemies. Caddoc and E’lara seem to be good characters, but early dialog between them has some super-cheesy lines.

The game is intended to be an update to the classic dungeon crawler. If this sounds pretty conventional, that’s because it’s meant to be. Hunted is a dark fantasy RPG following two mercenaries, Caddoc and E’lara, as they hunt the world for valuable crystals battling evil and uncovering a dark plot. Bethesda’s new RPG, Hunted: The Demon’s Forge, is looking to change that, with a game built from the ground up to be a true co-op dungeon crawler. Read below for a first look at this interesting new cooperative based RPG.Ĭo-op gameplay is quickly gaining momentum in the industry, as it seems to be almost a requirement for every shooter these days, but is often little more than a tacked-on afterthought rather than a conscious design decision. VGChartz had the privilege of sitting down with the developers (studio inXile Entertainment) for an extensive first look at the game at GDC last week.

Today Bethesda has announced they are publishing a brand new RPG for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 called Hunted: The Demon’s Forge. By Nick Pantazis, posted on 15 March 2010 / 32,032 Views
