Sometimes, evil wins

You are a Fatebinder

You are the judge and executioner of Kyros’ law, acting under the watchful eye of the Overlords Archon of Justice, Tunon the Adjudicator. Your words shape the lives of thousands. Will you use that power to bring justice and inspire loyalty? Or will you bring fear and cruelty to the beaten people of the Tiers?

The Choice is Yours

A Fatebinder’s word is law, and you decide the fate of the Tiers. Even the smallest of choices shape the land and its people. Tasked with making decisions that truly matter to theTiers and to the factions of Kyros’ army, you will develop a reputation based upon your deeds -- and you will find the world a drastically changed place each time you play Tyranny.

The World of the Tiers

The armies of Kyros the Overlord subjugated the Tiers. Now, the survivors of the war must adapt to a new rule, and keep the land productive for Kyros’ empire. Freely explore and experience a world where the war between good and evil has forever changed society. How will you shape it further?


🌍️ Wikipedia:

Tyranny is an upcoming role-playing video game being developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Paradox Interactive, with a planned release for Microsoft Windows, OS X, and Linux in November 2016.

While not a sequel, Tyranny builds upon the gameplay and engine used in Obsidian's previous title Pillars of Eternity, allowing the developers to spend more time on crafting a game where player choices have a more meaningful effect on the game's story. The game starts after the evil overlord Kyros has already conquered the world, and where the player-character, a Fatebinder, is one of the higher-ranked members in Kyros' power structure. As a Fatebinder, the player must travel the world to help restore order after Kyros' victory, and make decisions on how to handle the various factions of survivors, which can affect what companions, spells, and abilities the player may select from.

Plot

Setting

Tyranny takes place in a high fantasy world, described by its developers as somewhere between its Bronze Age and Iron Age where magic is rare but profoundly important. The Overlord Kyros, an unseen and immortal sorceror of immense power, has already overtaken the land by force, subjecting most of the citizens to his rule. He is served by armies of millions and championed by the Archons, men and women imbued with strange and unique magical powers. The player takes the role of a Fatebinder, one of the higher ranked agents in Kyros' forces, tasked to travel the world to restore order, reduce conflict, and maintain Kyros' rule. The Fatebinders act as judge, jury, and executioner in their actions, akin to Judge Dredd, under the oversight of Tunon the Adjudicator, Archon of Justice.

In traveling the world, the Fatebinder finds that those subjugated under Kyros' rule have fallen into various factions, which the Fatebinder can befriend or become enemies with. These include the various armies of Kyros involved in the conquest and occupation of the Tiers. The Disfavored are a well trained and highly disciplined legion led by Graven Ashe, Archon of War. The Scarlet Chorus are a vicious mob of sadistic shock troops, assassins and saboteurs led by the Voices of Nerat, Archon of Secrets. Also present in the world are the Vendrien Guard, the remnants of the Kingdom of Apex's army who swore themselves to Kyros after their kingdom's demise who have now raised their flag in rebellion.

The world of Tyranny also features a number of collosal ruins from a previous, unknown civilization. These include the Old Walls, magically attuned spans of walls that run for hundreds of miles, and the Spires, monolothic towers that reach higher into the sky than most mountains. For reasons unknown, Kyros forbids entry to these structures on pain of death.
Synopsis

The game begins several years after the conquest of the Tiers, the last major region that resisted Kyros' rule. A new rebellion has risen in Tiers kingdom of Apex, in the region of Vendrien's Well, and Kyros has grown angry with his armies' failure to quell it. The Fatebinder is dispatched to Vendrien's Well to resolve the bickering generals' disputes and end the siege of the rebel fortress, or every living thing in that region will be destroyed by one of Kyros' Edicts, a form of magical superweapon and one of the few ways Kyros himself directly enforces order in his realm. However, after fulfilling the terms of the Edict and ending the siege, the difused magic alters the Fatebinder in unforeseen ways.

Gameplay

Tyranny is a computer role-playing game (RPG) using isometric user interface similar to Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity. Players take the role of the Fatebinder. The game opens in a board game-like Conquest mode that ties in with the character creation process. During Conquest mode, the player makes decisions on how the world was conquered by Kyros and the Fatebinder's role in that. These decisions affect the state of the game's world and the reaction that various non-playable characters (NPC) react to the Fatebinder, particularly of the various factions of which the Fatebinder can become allies or foes with. The Fatebinder character is class-less, instead allowing the player to define the character's strength and weaknesses through a skill-based system that is based on how frequent they use certain skills. The Fatebinder may gain NPC companions over the course of the game. The Fatebinder will have abilities in combat that can be influenced by which factions the character is aligned with, as well as combination attacks with companion NPCs. The player will be able to craft magic spells for the Fatebinder; each spell starts with a core attribute representing its elemental power such as fire or ice, and its appearance in use such as a directed bolt or a wide-range cone. From there, the player can add accents that affect the strength, range, and other factors of the spell. Each added accent costs lore (points earned in the game), thus limiting how powerful the crafted spell can be.

Decisions made by the player both at character creation and later in the game will affect the game's world, making some conversation tree choices critical. For example, a certain decision may cause a magical fissure to open through the center of one of the towns, killing some NPCs and forcing the other NPCs to relocate to a neighboring town, altering the NPCs' attitude towards the Fatebinder and what quests may be available. Due to the importance of these decisions, the player enters character experience points for conversations as they would in participating in battles.

Tyranny will contain a number of options to adjust the difficulty of the game, in response to players' concerns from Pillars of Eternity.
