Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 78671, member: 636"] Liquid Swords just dropped a big FAQ for their upcoming game, Samson: A Tyndalston Story. The studio was founded by Cristofer Sundberg from Avalanche, so influences from Just Cause and Mad Max are confirmed. You will see that legacy in the focus on physics, momentum, and vehicle combat, though they promise a more grounded vibe than Just Cause's over-the-top chaos. The game emphasizes heavy melee fights and using cars as weapons, much like Mad Max, but within its own setting. Combat is all about improvised, functional violence. Forget preset weapon wheels. You will be grabbing stuff from the environment, like wrenches or bricks, to use as tools. Melee weapons can be stored in your car's trunk for later, but the world is your main arsenal. Damage has real weight, breaking objects and leaving visible marks on characters. Driving focuses on physical sensation and impact, with different vehicle types handling uniquely. You can commandeer any car you find, civilians included, apparently, which will trigger escalating police responses. Priced at twenty-five bucks, the main story runs about ten hours. Side content like underground races, tailing missions, and various criminal jobs can extend playtime to roughly twenty-five hours. Finishing these activities feeds a progression system with skills and perks. There are no difficulty options, forcing everyone into the same experience. The team is using Unreal Engine 5 for this open world, aiming for a PC launch in early 2026. Console ports will come later due to the small team size. [/QUOTE]
