Summary
- Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is nearly here, and in a new interview, MachineGames has reiterated that gunplay isn't the game's focus.
- Instead, Jones will rely on his whip, wits, and fists to settle scores, with guns being actively discouraged.
- This isn't the first time that MachineGames has discussed guns in Indiana Jones, as the team wants players to know that it is staying true to who the character is.
When 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Indiana Jones and the Great Circle launches in December on Xbox Series consoles and in 2025 on PlayS༒tation 5, there will be guns in the game,๊ but that isn't the focus of the game's combat.
, MachineGames'♎ creative director Axel Torvenius reiterated that gunplay isn't how things will ope🌃rate, going as far as saying that it isn't even encouraged.
"We do not encourage gunplay. It's not being pushed as the prima🔯ry way forward. The primary way forward is always trying to use your wits and your whip."
Instead, it's a "fallback solution," according to the interview. That's because, despite its pedigree in the shooter genre with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Wolfenstein, MachineGames is focused on honor𓆉ing whoꦓ Indiana Jones is as a character. For all intents and purposes, Jones is an educated everyman and not a gunslinging outlaw.
"It wouldn't be true to the character to have him cons💎tantly shooting camps for all enemies constantly, and the team at MachineGames wants to emphasize the danger level," Torvenius explained. "We've been trying to capture that sense that, if you need to engage in combat, it's very dangerous to be shot at. It's also very dangerous to shoot at enemies, because they will have an alarm system and reinforcements coming in."
MachineGames Shouldn’t Need To Apologise For Indiana Jones 🦩
After two brilliant Wolfenstein games (and also Youngbloo✃d), Ma𝓀chineGames has more than proven itself.
Instead, Jones will use his whip, his w☂its and his fists to dispatch enemies. Game director Jerk Gustafsson even described a scenario of Jones picking up a gun to use it as a melee w🐟eapon, instead of its intended purpose. "That's a very in-character use of a gun for Indiana Jones," he said.
This Isn't The First Time MachineGames Has Discussed Combat
Just a few w🃏eeks ago, Jens Andersson, the design director at MachineGames,
"He's not a fighter, that's not his nature, even though he ends u𓄧p in fights all the time," Andersson added at the time. "He's an unlikely hero, lucky—how can we replicate that into gameplay, make the player feel that humor, how do we get that ac♚ross?"
It seems like MachineGames is dedicated to letting people know to set their expec🌌tations accordingly when it comes ꦍto the game's combat. More than that, to also showcase the reverence they have for the character and desire to stay true to his origins.
