Conan interview and first official trailer |
Ó
The character of Conan the Barbarian was originally created by Robert E. Howard back in 1932. Since then, Conan has emerged and metamorphosed in various media like comics, television, movies, and even games. In fact, Nihilistic Software and THQ are bringing Conan to the PS3 and 360 early next year.Nihilistic President Robert Huebner commented that the staying power of the character lies in wish fulfillment. Everybody who knows this warrior knows that Conan is the ultimate alpha male, not to mention that he always gets the girls. Violence is also a staple in Conan universe but Huebner explained that our guy isn't the cause of violence.
It's all the pesky people who keep trying to tell him what to do, throw him in jail, or infringe on his Crom-given freedoms that caused the violence by putting themselves on a collision course with his sword. We want the game to convey that Conan worldview. Conan isn't a deep, brooding hero, but he's always in the moment.
Huebner then went on and talked about their upcoming title. He said that Nihilistic plans to tell an original story, while remaining inside the universe Howard created. in the end, Huebner remarked that it's a marriage of the two.
Howard drew some really compelling and interesting locations in Hyboria, so we can't resist visiting those places. We tried to find a place in the official timeline where we can tell an original story that feels like it was the sort of story Howard would have told. We also have some surprising new locations as well, so players won't always get what they expect.
Huebner remarked that the game's combat system is influenced by Ninja Gaiden and the series Devil May Cry. In terms of visuals and style, the official explained that God of War has been very influential. If you want to know how the new game looks like, here's the game's first official movie (PS3).
