When they do drop, they have a chance of dropping a black heart and that’s interesting because hearts don’t last forever. Once you’ve gone down the skill tree and bought black hole, there are certain enemies that drop. If you notice the way the demoer got that was from eating a heart. That was our version of black hole, which is a returning power from The Darkness 1. The vortex power at the end looks like the black hole, but it appears the mechanics have changed. It was just a constraint on the level designers when they were making it. We built levels knowing you were going to have that ability so it actually wasn’t too bad. Luckily for us, we had our design with what we wanted to do quite early. With Heart of Darkness the difficulty came in making sure the way enemies were highlighted in the world didn’t ruin our art style. Everything about our art style is about being true to the comic books and having that feel to the world. I think for us, the difficulty wasn’t actually designing the feature, it was more the visualization of it. Was the seeing through walls ability difficult to develop for the game? How did this effect level design? When you grab an object maybe we could have a power that works with that or maybe different ways of slashing would give you powers depending on how you combo. Instead of telling you what they are, I’ll just say if you could imagine what could we work with.
I mean it works into a lot of different things. Jackie also has his demon arms, which I guess will have their own skill tree. That’s just taking gun channeling and going through one branch of it. While that’s activated, you can see through walls and shoot through walls at the same time. There is another branch we didn’t show you, but the branch we went up eventually got up to the Heart of Darkness. With gun channeling, the path we took in the demo is we went up and down one branch. So, it really is like quad damage for your guns for a limited amount of time. What happens when you activate gun channeling is you’re channeling the darkness through your guns and that amps up the damage for a limited amount of time. The gun channeling ability can turn a machine gun to a deadly weapon is one of the abilities we saw. There’s stuff we’re not revealing yet, but we can talk about what you saw. Sorry, that doesn’t come out clear in the way that we laid it out. Sheldon Carter, Creative Director: There are four different tiers we’re showing now. What can you say about the skill tree system in The Darkness II? I believe the demo had four different tiers. In this interview, Sheldon Carter, creative director, outlined the game’s skill trees and revealed its possible to respec Jackie. The player picked gun channeling as one of his abilities, which channeled the power of the darkness into his guns. Dark Sector developer Digital Extremes added a skill tree system to The Darkness II and a hands-off demonstration had four branches. After bullets are fired and blood sprays, The Darkness II rewards players with experience points.
