Corven: Path of Redemption Update – Combat and Website News

The latest development update for the Ultima-inspired RPG Corven: Path of Redemption explains why the game will be using a real time combat system and introduces us to the updated website and forums. It also shares a couple of fresh screenshots. Here are the text bits:

Fight in exciting real times battles!

After testing 3 different kinds of combat systems I decided that the best fit for Corven will be real time combat after all.

The system will closely resemble combat you know from games like Diablo BUT this does not mean that Corven is suddenly a hack and slash RPG! Nothing changed with Corven’s focus on story, NPC interaction and exploration.

This combat system is simply most fun and least distracting. Grid battles and JRPG style turn based combat takes you out of the game for too long and feels too clunky in the context of what Corven is outside of combat.

Who says killing monsters and collecting loot can’t be fun in a story focused RPG?
