everywhere in the world I need any point
you can user ship and go in the water
you can swim dive you can go on land
come back it's always there it's always
on the map the game is called Odyssey
and of course we're modeling ourselves
on the voyage of Odysseus and you're
exploring the Aegean Sea it doesn't take
place at the same time but it's the same
experience that we're trying to give to
the player and naval is a huge important
part of that also the map is huge I mean
really big
the sea needs to be seamless because
this time it's open everywhere around
you so we have to do a lot of tech on
that making sure that the shorelines
where you could see like the waves
coming and dying on the beaches you have
a lot of big waves when you go far away
in the ocean we also make sure that you
see all those kind of fishes and stuff
like that that you can see from your
share pond when you're swimming they're
not all combat you know DC is something
more fast-paced more close-range it's
more intense than than ever the fact
that we have people shooting javelins
and arrows make us put the ship closer
together so you can see the action when
we discovered in the end was that
mobility was a key factor of making the
fun experience for the player so in fact
the boat has a very high acceleration
you're able to turn really fast you're
able to move really fast you may see a
boat about the ramya and then like
within a couple seconds you can sort of
dodge out of the way because of the
mobility of the ship some ship were
shooting a fire enemy ammunition to burn
the other ship the most important tactic
was the the ramming and the cleaving
yeah and of course clear leadership is
advantageous to the planet because it's
going to give them more life more
resources so you're always looking for
that opportunity to cleave a ship not
only for the spectacular nature of it
but also it's as a gameplay benefits the
player during those times ship was able
to board and kill the remaining yeah
and after that lose the treasure on the
ship because there's a bunch of chess
the bigger the ship is the bigger the
rewards are so every time you sunk a
ship in fact there is like chess they're
all being really ease in the ocean you
can dive and try to hunt them it's
pretty interesting and if you go too far
in the water you might encounter some
sharks and so it's pretty
hard to kill there's definitely gonna be
some unique ships on the water some
unique challenges when you first
encounter these ships if you're a
low-level you're gonna learn to run away
quickly as you get stronger your ship is
gonna get stronger but beyond that
there's upgrades that you're gonna need
to apply to your ship so upgrading the
arrows the javelins how much ramming
damage it can do how many lieutenants
you can have on the ship how strong the
hull is if you can shoot fire with your
arrows or javelin so there's a lot of
upgrades to the ship that will make it
more powerful mercenaries will come
after you on sea and it's a cool moment
because they have awesome looking ships
they have unique figureheads unique
masts when the player gets into combat
with these guys could also board them
and so you can fight the mercenary like
hand-to-hand on the deck of a ship and
hopefully you can even spar to kick them
off the deck and this is like a way
cooler moment to take out take out a
mercenary in the game they can also
customize the ship how they want in
terms of who they want to recruit and
the perks they will want to have on
their ship so to create a synergy
between upgrades and perks to build the
way they want to play you can recruit
lieutenants from people in the world be
they individual weak Archer or if you
want to find the best mercenary in the
world you can go knock that person out
pay them convince them to join your crew
I want you to be with me when I do they
can be coming from missions or they can
you can also choose to find ones that
have like good perks they're gonna give
you more weapons they're gonna give you
better hammers they're gonna give also
like crazy perks on your ship like
boosting speed and having more stamina
so they're changing almost every kind of
parts of your boat in fact so every one
of them is very different and then when
you buy a certain ability you can call
them is a combat for you and either
create a distraction or you can go join
them in the fight
so the societies we have a couple at the
beginning of the game that are available
and the more you progress in the game
you will unlock some sea shanties that
will be about your holy sea
