| 4s | some dark creature almost like a shadow |
|---|---|
| 7s | creature mysterious that hunts you in |
| 13s | the spider was freakish mega run with |
| 15s | built-in rule surveys but I think this |
| 16s | one is a bit more of a disturbing |
| 18s | otherworldly creature gameplay wise he's |
| 22s | a little bit more complex in there a bit |
| 24s | more pushed than the spider or the |
| 27s | Bertrille |
| 27s | he'll dictate the fight so he'll come to |
| 30s | you and you have to be prepared for when |
| 31s | he does |
| 37s | [Music] |
| 41s | my take was just to make him as real as |
| 45s | possible the references were obviously |
| 49s | insect mummies and emaciated humans and |
| 53s | mud like a lot of mud actually yeah I |
| 57s | have big folder with just people covered |
| 59s | in mud I will take the concept and I |
| 64s | work up a white box model so we can lock |
| 66s | down the field of the character as we go |
| 69s | through the process we sort of merge the |
| 72s | idea of what the model should look like |
| 73s | with what games design would like it to |
| 75s | be this is the actual model in game with |
| 80s | the textures so these spirals here where |
| 83s | the bugs running up him there's these |
| 86s | lanes here where bugs are running down |
| 87s | his arms he's very much of a |
| 90s | effects-heavy character so Victor did |
| 92s | the particles did a good job there he |
| 94s | can able disappear and reappear into a |
| 96s | puddle of insects which is quite cool |
| 98s | this is the weak spot of the character |
| 101s | which is the chest area so the idea was |
| 104s | to make sure that we drive the fires |
| 106s | attention towards this weak spot |
| 109s | so making more bloody in areas I can add |
| 113s | more into it make it more glossy and |
| 116s | more disgusting you have to look at some |
| 119s | pretty horrific reference I think the |
| 122s | beginning as a little bit shocking but |
| 123s | after being in development for couple |
| 125s | years and I'm kinda used to it never |
| 129s | from a gameplay point of view what makes |
| 132s | me the most interesting is he's very |
| 135s | very active he's fast like the spider |
| 137s | and he's as physical as a butcher |
| 141s | he'll kinda lure you up to a position |
| 143s | and then he'll just come and attack you |
| 145s | very quickly I have nowhere he can come |
| 147s | off the walls you can come out of the |
| 149s | floor he can divide himself up in the |
| 152s | way he's kind of hunting the buyer as |
| 154s | much as they are hunting him this boss |
| 157s | offers quite a different challenge his |
| 159s | movements completely different so you'll |
| 161s | see that he'll only appear when he makes |
| 163s | himself vulnerable so you can't just |
| 165s | running gun basically you still hurt him |
| 167s | but it's not the most valuable tactic as |
| 169s | it is with the other bosses we have some |
| 172s | cool tools in CryEngine where we can |
| 175s | generate nav meshes in these compounds |
| 177s | and then he will use this and |
| 178s | information about yourself to find you |
| 182s | this is the floor that he uses to find |
| 185s | paths so if we say hey moved in this |
| 187s | position over here he will try and use |
| 190s | this blue path and then on the walls if |
| 192s | the assassin wants to pick a point over |
| 195s | here he can come off this blue navmesh |
| 197s | got the green one and then find a path |
| 199s | all the way up here he has his behavior |
| 202s | free which dictates what he should do |
| 204s | and when he should do it that is quite a |
| 206s | difficult one because he also wants to |
| 207s | dictate the fight himself so he'll move |
| 210s | around the compound try and move around |
| 211s | you try and get you from different |
| 212s | angles it's quite challenging like |
| 214s | technically but I think it turned out |
| 217s | quite well knowing that the community is |
| 221s | asking for a boss for so long I mean the |
| 223s | pressure was big and we felt it and we |
| 225s | it's not like we didn't want to make a |
| 226s | boss but priorities and we did I think a |
| 231s | good job at keeping the hands-on sanity |
| 234s | and try to add something that we didn't |
| 236s | have before now previous boss |
| 239s | [Music] |
| 244s | achieved with CryEngine |
