Plague of
Darkness [Cancelled]
"Set in Medieval Europe, Namco's Plague
of Darkness puts you into the presumably chain armoured boots of
Douran, a Knight of the Order, to resolve the mystery of The Black
Death. We'll give him a clue: it was the rats. Or people pissing in
the streets. We forget.
The press release claims that the game has a "rich use of colour,"
but we beg to differ given these drab work-in-progress screenshots.
Not that the colour palate is particularly important.
Comparisons to Morrowind can be made, but from the sound of things
Namco are hoping to make it more accessible. The fighting system
features attack, defend, block and grab moves, while tarot cards are
used to summon magic attacks. Although it's not known for certain,
we reckon that it'll be played from a third person perspective." [now cancelled] [Contribute by
