Das heutige FridayUpdate dreht sich um die Stygier:
This week we take a look into the Stygian culture will be represented in Age of Conan with a look at some of the great conept art prepared for the clothes and armors you will find in the region.
There are five new images added to the gallery today showing a range of Stygian armor inspirations. From clothing the refined and sensual curves of their mysterious women to displaying the ornate grandeur of the finest Stygian armor, our artists constantly strive to capture the essence of the Stygia that comes across so vividly in Howard's descriptions of the dangerous desert kingdom.
"These type of images serve as both guide and instruction for our 3D artists creating the armor and clothing, but also serve as important inspiration for the kind of atmosphere that we want to create for these areas", explains Assistant Art Director Grant Regan, "players should be able to get lost in the worlds we create and that drives through everything we try and do with our art direction. The artists have to convey in these images how we want the experience of walking around Stygia to feel - that is no small feat in itself!"
The images today show a selection from the Stygian concepts we have produced to inspire the armor and items you will be able to collect in Age of Conan. Whilst working within the Stygian theme there is still more then enough room for some great diversity in how their armor looks! These examples come from various different tiers of the armor ranges and types and show how the inspiration of Howard's Stygia can be used to create many distinctly Stygian but different looks.
In der News wurden 5 Screenshots von den Konzeptzeichnungen der verschiedenen Rüstungen des Stygischen Volkes veröffentlicht.
